I think sleep deprivation affects different people differently, but here goes.
I cannot imagine dealing with the scope and variety of decisions which would be necessary as POTUS under similar circumstance.
@austingirl@mystery-ak@Unlimited Thanks for your long post documenting what happened to you due to sleep deprivation. I have tested/worked with brain injured people and/or people with personality disorders. I know how to evaluate human behavior - what behavior tells me to expect; I was also an EMT (emergency medical technician) and had to know what certain behaviors of patients told me about their medical condition when I responded to a medical emergency.
I have said on a thread that Trump's lack of deep sleep does not allow his brain to reset so it is constantly on alert. Deep sleep is also when the body repairs itself so that doesn't happen with Trump. Through the years, he has controlled his surroundings as he hasn't worked within the boundaries a company would set if he was employed by one. Instead, he does what he wants when he wants.
If he wins, he will be confronted with all the problems the president has on a 24 hr. basis. I have said I think his brain won't be able to keep up that pace and it will shut down. I think he will physically collapse when his brain shuts down. I see behavior that tells me that. His brain appears to stay confused and that is why his speech is the pits (of course, you know "pits" is a medical term
), speaking with words that don't connect correctly with other words, speaking in unconnected phrases, seldom making an understandable complete sentence.
Two examples of behavior telling me what had happened or going to happen to two people:
I was in our Republican office across from the county courthouse on an election day. A worker came in and told me the county clerk was making strange decisions. I listened to what that person said about the county clerk's behavior and I determined she had a brain stroke. Within an hour an ambulance came and took her to the hospital - she had a stroke.
The husband of my mother-in-law, was sick of certain ailments. He was my husband's step-father. We went there to visit and when we left I told my husband his step-father would likely be dead within a week. He died two days later. I heard his breathing, determined his lungs were full of fluid.
Perhaps I am wrong about what Trump's behavior tells me. I have gone back to his childhood behavior until his behavior today, to evaluate him psychologically and medically (sleep deprivation), but I haven't done that with him in front of me, so maybe I am wrong. If sleep deprivation hasn't affected him, if he has no personality disorder as his behavior suggests, then he is the "greatest" as he says he is.
