The Financial Impact of Sleep Deprivation
Sleep loss doesn’t just affect your body and mind—it can hit your wallet, too.
The economic costs of sleep deprivation are staggering, impacting both individuals and society.
Lost Productivity:
When you’re tired, you work slower, make more mistakes, and are more likely to miss work.
A RAND Corporation study found that the U.S. loses up to $411 billion each year due to sleep-related productivity drops and absenteeism.
Healthcare Expenses:
Chronic sleep deprivation increases your risk for heart disease, diabetes, depression, and accidents.
This leads to higher healthcare costs, more doctor visits, and increased prescription use.
Personal Finances:
-
Frequent sick days can lead to lost wages or missed opportunities for advancement.
-
Medical bills for sleep-related health issues can add up quickly.
-
Poor sleep can even affect your decision-making, making you more likely to overspend or make risky financial choices.
Sleep Deprivation and Immune Health: What You Need to Know
Your immune system needs sleep to function at its best.
When you’re sleep deprived, your body produces fewer infection-fighting antibodies and cells.
-
More Illness: Sleep-deprived people are nearly three times more likely to catch a cold after virus exposure.
-
Slower Recovery: Healing from illness or injury takes longer when you’re not well rested.
-
Vaccination Response: Studies show that people who don’t get enough sleep may not respond as well to vaccines.
Prioritizing sleep is a simple way to boost your natural defenses and stay healthier year-round.
How Sleep Deprivation Affects Children and Teens
Kids and teens are especially vulnerable to the effects of poor sleep.
Growing bodies and developing brains need more rest than adults.
-
Behavior and Learning: Sleep-deprived children struggle with attention, memory, and emotional regulation.
-
Physical Health: Lack of sleep is linked to obesity, weakened immunity, and even higher blood pressure in kids.
-
Mental Health: Teens who don’t get enough sleep are at greater risk for depression, anxiety, and risky behaviors.

|
School Age (6–13) |

Supporting healthy sleep habits early sets kids up for a lifetime of better health and learning.
Technology and Sleep: Finding Balance
Screens are everywhere, but too much screen time—especially before bed—can disrupt your sleep.
-
Blue Light: Suppresses melatonin, making it harder to fall asleep.
-
Mental Stimulation: Social media, news, and games keep your brain active when it should be winding down.
-
Interrupted Sleep: Notifications and late-night messages can wake you up or prevent deep rest.
Tips for Better Sleep with Technology:
-
Set a “screen curfew” at least an hour before bed.
-
Use night mode or blue light filters on devices.
-
Keep your phone out of the bedroom or on “Do Not Disturb” overnight.
-
Replace late-night scrolling with a relaxing activity, like reading or listening to calming music.
Small changes in your tech habits can make a big difference in your sleep quality and how you feel each day.
