  • Science! You're going to die for how much/little you sleep!

    Lack of sleep linked to early death: study - Yahoo! News

    I swear, these people just want you to worry about everything.

    This study says that if you sleep four hours or less each day, you're going to die prematurely. And if you sleep over nine hours, same thing.

    The report had "no advese effects" for getting six to eight hours, but I'm going to say you die early from that too.

    One thing I do agree with the study about is the nature modern life pushes us to sleep less and work too much. This is why I want to freelance - make my own damn hours, get paid, sleep as much as I want.

    Deep down, I'm just starting to think the secret to life is not giving a shit.

      Quiet you, I'm just telling myself that to make it sound better.

      I actually know it would be stressful, its just the kind of stress I can actually deal with. Working a full-time job I hate, that anyone could do and being treated like the whole process is rocket science when I'm smarter than the manger is actually more stressful to me.

      Freelance work isn't devoid of idiots to deal with, but there are fewer of them.

          Writing. But I'm looking into other related fields. Graphic Design just wasn't my thing.

              It's common knowledge that too little sleep has detrimental effects on your health. So is this really that surprising of news?

                Don't forget TGM: Any science that BBQ disagrees with must be wrong, and therefore part of the liberal conspiracy.

                  So true. Don't give a fuck, and nothing will ever let you down.

                    Remove your consumerism attitude about life and you'll be much happier. This allows you to work less and want less, leaving time for more important things in life like family and friends.

                          Everything is detrimental to your health, though. Everything causes cancer or psychological damage or heart attacks. I just don't get how oversleep gets you, too. Only thing I've learned about oversleeping is it just makes you more lethargic. Four to six is where I tend to peak no matter how hard I try otherwise. Its going to take Nyquil or sleeping pills to keep me down longer.

                          I figure so long as the REM cycle kicks in, I'm OK. I usually feel fully rested after that.

                            I think the thing about oversleeping is that there tends to be an underlying cause to the oversleeping, and THAT is what is shortening your life.

                            Really, living tends to shorten your lifespan ... but the only way to avoid that is to just die right off.

                              Yes... life is the biggest killer of all. I've never seen anyone survive it yet.
