A member asked:
How long will it take for my cognitive functioning and memory to be restored after chronic sleep deprivation (2 years of 4-5 hours of sleep/night)?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
It may take up: to a month to get more sleep and get some note taking to help remember what you forget/are forgetting on a daily basis. Question is why did you miss the sleep in the first place is due to a job schedule or by choice?
