- Having a full night's rest but still feeling groggy in the morning
- Staying up due to social, electronical, or work related distractions
- Having a sleep disorder that prevents you from getting enough sleep or causes poor quality sleep (such as insomnia)
- Sleeping at the wrong time of day (being out of sync with your body's natural clock)
During a typical 8 hour sleep period the normal human brain goes through a cycle of light sleep to a deeper sleep. This will leave a person alert and awake the morning after. Though feeling groggy or tired in the morning is probably because something is interrupting sleep. Studies have shown that sleep loss usually starts in middle schoolers due to the excessive amounts of homework given. Slowly, as a person's life progresses they lose more and more sleep because of the different events that occur in their life. Sleep deprivation happens due to either a sleep disorder, a distraction, or even snoring.
