People underestimate the effect of extreme sleep deprivation. For the first three months of my daughter's life, we didn't sleep for more than two hours at a time. The effect was profound - I was having auditory hallucinations, was paranoid, etc. It was only after she started sleeping through the night that I understood it was due to the lack of sleep.
- 20years 10y agoI experienced this too with my daughter. She had colic so we got very little sleep for 3 months straight. I thought I was going crazy due to hallucinations and paranoia. All that went away when I was able to get at least 6 hours straight sleep per night.
