One of the things that can happen if you don’t sleep it changes your thinking abilities and impairs your memory.

The first way sleep deprivation impairs your memory is it increases cortisol levels. Chronically elevated cortisol levels cause memory decline similar to what you would see in age-related dementia.

The second way poor sleep impairs your memory is through it’s effect or slow wave sleep and REM sleep. When you sleep, your brain goes through a process of memory consolidation. This is where you form memories. More specifically, slow wave sleep is the deep sleep you need to consolidate declarative memories. REM (rapid eye movement sleep) is the sleep you need to consolidate procedural memories.

In the video I explain how pulling an all nighter is one of the worst things you can do to help you remember things the next day.\n
