What is Sleep Deprivation Psychosis?

On average, adults should get seven to nine hours of sleep per night. Teenagers and kids require even more than that. When someone establishes a pattern of not getting enough sleep, it is considered sleep deprivation. When someone goes long enough without sleeping, they can develop psychosis. Additionally, when deprived of adequate sleep, the brain has difficulty functioning at full capacity. This can mean a person has cognitive difficulties such as thinking clearly or making decisions. Sleep deprivation psychosis causes a person to lose touch with reality and have trouble distinguishing between what’s real and what’s not real. Psychosis also keeps a person from interacting rationally or effectively with others. 

Symptoms of sleep deprivation psychosis can begin after going 24 hours without sleep and intensify as the person stays awake even longer. Because this lack of ability to sleep can stem from having a mental health disorder, it’s important to seek treatment for sleep deprivation psychosis.

Is Sleep Deprivation Psychosis a Mental Illness?

Sleep deprivation psychosis is not classified as a mental illness, but it can be a symptom of having one. In fact, sleep deprivation can contribute to developing a mental health disorder.

Types of Sleep Deprivation Psychosis

There are three types of sleep deprivation psychosis. The first is Acute Sleep Deprivation, which happens as a result of going just a few days or less without adequate sleep. Another type is Chronic Sleep Deprivation, which happens when someone does not sleep enough for three months or longer. Last, a person can have Chronic Sleep Deficiency, also known as Insufficient Sleep. This happens to people whose sleep is often disturbed and they do not sleep enough hours in a row. Treatment for sleep deprivation psychosis is available for all three types of this illness.

How Does Sleep Deprivation Psychosis Treatment in Atlanta Work?

Our treatment for sleep deprivation psychosis includes a full assessment of each person so we understand their exact diagnosis. This allows us to create a menu of therapies for the person to attend that address their specific needs. We discover what issues and mental health disorders contribute to a poor sleep pattern and work to resolve them. As a person begins to heal from illnesses such as anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, PTSD, and more, they find a new balance in how they sleep.

Effects of No Sleep

When someone goes without adequate sleep, it can impact their lives in several ways. The person becomes at risk of getting involved in an accident related to driving or operating machinery. They will have difficulty performing well on the job or in school. Sleep deprivation is often associated with mental health disorders like depression, bipolar disorder, and anxiety. It can be a symptom of these mental illnesses or lead to developing one of them. 

Sleep deprivation can also lead to developing medical issues such as:
