Inasmuch as there exists nothing, not even the I Am/Self, when we have "left the world" of perception through deep sleep, can we claim to exist? What is absent? What is present?
Oops! i meant to use a lower case "c" on consciousness. My question is: Is Consciousness (capital "C" intended to refer to our Higher Consciousness) still present in deep sleep?

social, psychological, and physiological factors might account for this gender difference?

My shifts are 8pm – 9am. I sometimes get as little as 4 hours sleep, 6 on a good day. I suffer as I see do many with nausea and a rotten inside feeling more during the day now than on shift but I cannot find any real remedies on the internet or from colleagues. Is there any wonder food or medication to ease this sickness?

I feel really weak, i mean so weak i cant walk up steps. I have only been getting 3 hours sleep for 2 and a half years, and i feel like im dying but test say im healthy. What does the bad sleeping do. Am I slowly dying or losing years off my life. You might dismiss 3 hours sleep for 2 and a half years, but im at the point where it might be best to end my life. please answer

I’m a 16 year old girl, I’ve been told by a roommate that I flail around violently just after I go to sleep and before I wake up, I hear stuff before I go to sleep and sometimes see stuff in a dream-like manner with my eyes closed, sometimes I smell and taste random stuff, I go to sleep with a sleeping mask and ear plugs in and wake up with them both thrown across the room. I have slept 12 hours before and woken up exhausted, I can never seem to stay asleep at night, I believe I’ve sleep walked.

Lately my memory has been going, I lose the TV remote CONSTANTLY, files go missing off my computer that I would not have deleted, I lose CDs that I consider very valuable and wouldn’t just throw around but I have no idea where they are, I can’t remember what happened in recent times, the past seems like it happened to someone else. The memory loss is probably connected to my violent sleep but I don’t know what to do about either, I spent two weeks in a behavioral health center and they had me on wellbutrin but it did nothing but make me really angry. I feel like I’m losing my grip and don’t know what to do!
