you need 7h or more of sleep regularly or you'll get neural damage in the long run. i'm talking tinnitus, spasms, halluzinations, etc. a few days less per month won't be a problem

Well, fuck. Is the neutral damage reversible ?

[–] lurch 3 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

to some degree, yes. like hallucinations or eye twitching will usuallly disappear after one or two nights of 7+ hours of sleep. tinnitus can take several days to disappear.

Good to know. I definitely had some minor auditory hallucinations or spasms come and go depending on how badly I managed my sleep schedule and I never really thought about that. I think the tinnitus is mostly actual physical damages because I wanted to rawdog some metal concerts when I was younger though.

What if i have neural damage despite enough sleep? I'm a muay thai practitioner btw

That depends. You should talk about it with your doctor.
