You are in your 20s, full of new dates, parties, trips, jobs and mistakes that you can forget about and fix. There is basically no time to sleep.

Doctors are just starting to understand how sleep impacts just about every single thing you do. However, they do recommend you search out for these scary side effects of skipping on sleep in your 20s:

High blood pressure:

Not getting enough sleep stresses out your mind and body in a manner that leads to high blood pressure. This could lead to kidney, heart and arteries damage, and even cause loss of vision, stroke and other health issues, you definitely don't want to have.

Higher risk of death:

People who sleep not more than 5 hrs a night are more prone to die from any cause, literally, based on the data from three massive researches. Off course! Hitting the bed too late could really cause your death.

Impaired creativity:

Neuroimaging researches recommend that the brain reorganizes information spontaneously when you rest, which could answer the question why is it so difficult to come up and focus on ideas when you don't have enough sleep.

Sex drought:

Sex or sleep? Sleep or sex? When you are really exhausted, you would always choose to sleep.

If you hit the bed and fall asleep in 20 minutes, please! Forget about waking up through the night, and feel refreshed in the morning, you will be ready to go again! The best way to get enough sleep is to sleep whenever you feel tired and wake up without using an alarm clock for a few days.
