Sleep Deprivation & Reaction Times
Sleep deprivation and reaction times are linked, sadly. I say sadly because when a person is sleep deprived, their reaction times are slowed in a big way, and this can cause major risks, especially if someone is driving. If you are driving when you are sleep deprived, you are actually more dangerous than some people who have been drinking a lot of alcohol. Sleep deprivation can also have an affect on your work, especially if you have a job where you are using heavy machinery. If you are often losing sleep, you should get the book Stop Insomnia for good ideas on how to get rest.
