What To Do If Eyes Are Crossed As Not Slept Since Four Days Due To Projects?

My boyfriend hasn t slept in maybe 3 or 4 days and his eyes are crossed now. :[ He won t sleep because he s a grad student and is forcing through final projects, but is this a potentially permanent thing? Should I make him go to sleep, so he doesn t have to do corrective things later on?

Hello
Welcome to HCM.
Sleep is an extremely essential physiological phenomenon. It is required to keep our brain alert and fresh.
Not sleeping for 3-4 days at a stretch will disturb your friend's sleep wake cycle. This may cause sleep disturbances later on.

I suggest you to make him sleep for atleast 5-6 hours every night.
This is must to refreshen the body. This will increase his concentration too.

Thanks.
