My father used to say often
"Sleep is like a drug. The more you have it, the more you want it!"

Lack of sleep acts like excess of alcohol
(also known as having 'too little blood in the stream of alcohol') !

So too much sleep is as dangerous as too little sleep. Avoid both!

  It is true that mental health is a global epidemic with appalling impact on individuals, families, communities and economies and that mental health surpasses in significance other pressing global health crises such as Ebola, Zika and communicable and non-communicable disorders and that there can be no health without mental health. It seems cynical that a minister appointed today will turn all ailments on their heads and solve our mental health predicament once and for all.
