Sleep Deprivation: A Walking Zombie’s Tale

[Cyrus]

I got 2 hours of sleep in the last 48 hours. I’m such an idiot. Now I am a walking zombie. I think I will go and buy a big coffee from star bucks now........shudder. Its weird though, I am yawning but I don’t really feel all that tired. It comes and goes. Sometimes I feel no effects of sleep deprivation. I really don’t think I was designed for more than 6 hours of sleep a day. I am afraid if I fall asleep now I won't wake up. Then I will miss class and I can't turn in my stat homework which kept me up because I started it at 1 a.m today lol. My advice, don't start your stat homework at 1 am when its due the next day.

My advice : don't do Medicine. It's no joke, as a Houseman/intern, you'll be working 40 hours at a stretch with no sleep at all, repeating that feat 3 times a week, all the while making critical decisions that affect the lives and deaths of your patients.

Good job there Cyrus. Might want to check your integration one more time before turning in that homework.
