when I die" or "sleep is overrated" are often used by individuals who may be very busy--e.g. college students. However, sleeping is necessary for adequate physical and cognitive functions. During infancy, it is essential for growth, as growth hormone (GH) is secreted when we sleep. This is why newborns sleep between 16-18 hours.
