Recently, I often stay up late,you know,working in the midnight is kind of more productive. But, one problem is I don't know whether sleeping about 3 hours is too harmful for my health,note:I take my routine diet,even the breakfast.During the noon,also take another 2 hours for rest. Then,What's your opinion?

When you are young and or in the middle ages, you will not notice the impact of sleeping for less no. of hours, but it will have its toll when you grow older. So, if you are forced tow ork in the night, then you should sleep for 8 hours or so after the work is completed. It is better to fix the time so that sleep can be regular.

It is not right to only get three hours of sleep. For one thing, you will have waking dreams. You will be sitting, close your eyes and then you will be in a dream. The less sleep you have the more trouble you have in losing weight. Do you have to stay up until midnight because you do not make enough money? I would say your health is worth it. I notice you take two hours for rest in the afternoon. Why not decrease that to half an hour and get at least four and a half hours rest. Then increase your sleep time to at least seven hours. You will be much healthier.

Really you should be getting around 6-8 hours a night sleep, when you deprive yourself of sleep your mind will start to become muddled and your ocncentration sloppy, studdies have shown this, sleep deprevation is bad for year health, it may be easier for you to work late at night but why not then get your sleep during the day? or set yourself a specific time at night when you will stop work and catch some sleep and maybe then do a little work after you have had some rest.

I always stay up late I usually stay up to at least 2 to 3am but I wish I didnt because I dont get that much sleep and work is very tough when your very tired it would be for anyone but what I do at night time is mainly stay on the internet I post the most during the night time and thats pretty much all I do besides read my book which I do a lot at night time.
