A doctor has provided 1 answer
Set alarm: Our bodies need a certain amount of sleep. If it gets less than what is required, it will start to get sick and its performance will decrease. If your body requires 8 hours of sleep and you take less over a long period of time, you will pay the price in getting sick and decreased abilities.
