A member asked:
Could losing sleep from school make you depressed and not motivated in life and have an impact on brain development?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes: It sounds like depression is the major issue here and is contributing to the lack of sleep, decreased motivation, and other symptoms. Help is available and can be very beneficial. A combination of medication and counseling is usually a good course of action to start with. Hang in there!
