Good morning, friends

weekend

There is nothing better than having a good sleep.

but

How many friends are like me?

Did you stay up late and have fun last night?

Speaking of staying up late

Many people would say

Busy with work and study during the day

I finally have some time to myself at night.

Browsing the phone and playing games

Before I knew it, it was two or three in the morning.

And sometimes stay up late

The more you wait, the more excited you will be.

No sleep at all

Why is this?

Let’s find out below!

It turns out that it is the dopamine in your body that is causing trouble. It can control your emotions, convey exciting messages to you, and keep you awake.

Studies have found that once sleep deprivation occurs, the dopamine concentration in the body will increase, causing the body to become abnormally alert.

In this case, can you still sleep?

However, you feel like you’re getting more and more excited as you stay up longer, but have you ever considered how your brain and other body functions feel?

When they are tired after a day and want to rest, you still let them continue to work. In the end, what you may get is the body's protest and "fatal" danger.

After watching this, will you continue to stay up late?
