This is pop-psychology garbage. Pat yourself on the back and feel good about agreeing with something obvious.<p>Drugs are bad, m&#x27;kay. Sleep deprivation is bad, m&#x27;kay?<p>This is linked to that. Broad sweeping statistics seem to indicate whatever. Someday science will know more, but gosh Mr. Science sure could know a lot more right now. So many millions of numbers, and then there&#x27;s people who do such and such. We&#x27;re only beginning to unravel the mysteries of faith.<p>Not much to say about why brain cells die. Not much to say about the specific mechanics of any direct outcome, or why the brain actually needs up to a third of it&#x27;s time wound down to a state of minimal activity, or what really happens during that downtime.<p>But 99% of all boogey men are sleep deprived. Furthermore here is a glossary of mental illnesses from the hall of fame of DSM V diagnosis, that everyone&#x27;s sure to recognize, and sleep deprivation can be tied to all of them with delicious weasle words. Yay!
