The sleep assessment conducted on the patient had an interesting dynamic in how we think we sleep opposed to how our partner says we sleep. The patient wakes up every morning at 6 a.m. and takes a nap right after lunchtime approximately at 1 p.m. The daily naps, according to the patient, last about forty-five minutes to an hour. When asked about restlessness when waking up the patient with a stern voice and pointed finger says, "When I'm up I'm up and ready to go."

Title of Speech: The Importance of Sleep and the Effects It Can Have on Our Bodies
A common and overlooked sleep problem throughout college aged people is insomnia. While some people don’t even know they have it, it could be greatly affecting their outlook on life. Not getting the correct amount of sleep each night can lead to some very extreme mental health problems. These include: paranoia, hallucinations, schizophrenia, and night terrors. Could therapy help people who suffer from these health problems caused by insomnia? Researchers who conducted this experiment in the UK, Freeman at el, (2015) hypothesized insomnia is a contributory casual factor to psychotic-like experiences. With the help of cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT), the subjects will get better sleep, therefore they will have less psychotic-like experiences.

Helping Veterans now overcome these
The state of sleeping begins in the womb, long before a baby is born. There are three sleep states which have been recognized in babies and are based on particular patterns of brain activity and changes in rate of the heart and movement of the eyes. The three states are known as active, quiet, and indeterminate sleep. Active sleep is the equivalent of REM sleep in. Quiet sleep is the equivalent of non-REM sleep. Indeterminate sleep is the state in which neither active nor quiet sleep, as well as wakefulness, are present. Indeterminate sleep is the result of the baby’s brain not being able to coordinate all periods of sleep and wakefulness all of the time. As the pregnancy progresses, the baby’s awake and asleep patterns develop and are more
Sleep disruption in hospital patients is a common problem; therefore, sleep deprivation has become a longstanding problem. Many studies on sleep deprivation and its negative consequences on health have been carried out by both nursing researchers and others although it seems to fall on deaf ears.

We take sleep for granted so much, where most of the time we would like to abandon it as much as we can in our lives to accomplish a goal or have a good time, when in the long run we damaging our most precious time that we can never make up. It should be taken as a privilege and almost and honor when we our able to close our eyes and wake up to a new day and within the hours of a day complete as much as we can so we can keep the routine going. It can be easier said than done most of the time for people and I know that I am one of them. We have to cram assignments and chores that need to be done until the last second, because most of us procrastinate in the process. When we had an assignment about this topic I was fascinated and could relate to it in many ways. Then, recently I had a family death because of sleep deprivation and I definitely knew that this would be the topic I would like to pursue and research about. I will be going over the many ways sleep deprivation can affect the body, personality, and how you can either prevent or overcome the disease. It’s a silent epidemic that seems to continue to get slept on, but that’s why I would like to bring recognition
