A member asked:
In what way would sleeping every 48 hours affect me mentally?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Slower cognition: And reaction time, just as you would notice if you were overly sleepy all the time. It can also lead to agitation and depression. Sleeping every 48 hours would not provide enough sleep for you and would increase chances of so many different chronic conditions.
