As a teenager I went through a year of sleep deprivation. I got about six hours of sleep a night. I felt very sleepy every day and even had feelings of confusion and derealization. Did I cause any permanent damage to my brain? In addition, has damage caused by oxidative stress and free radicals irreversibly increased my cancer risk?
Obstructive Sleep Apnea is unlikely to cause hallucinations, but and they can occur with certain medications, stress, sleep deprivation, in certain brain disorders and with schizophrenia or bipolar disorders. So, like you mentioned sleep deprivation can cause hallucinations. But if they persist, I would advise you to discuss your symptoms with your primary care physician for further evaluation.

30 or so, only getting around 4 hours of sleep. I tried to get back to sleep but the people around me were up and keeping me awake.

That whole day I felt pretty normal.
You sound to me like you are suffering the effects of sleep deprivation. Is there any way you could get yourself into a more regular schedule by any chance.

There not sure why warm milk help sleep as tryptophan only helps with the initial cycle of sleep but can disrupt deep sleep, but you may want to try it to help you get to sleep initially just only drink a small glass.

I already was struggling with poor sleep due to sleep apnea that was undiagnosed at the time. At work my responsibilities increased and I was constantly rehashing in my mind the various decisions I had to make in selecting and writing specs for a data management software conversion. Then an extended family member was killed in the military and I had to plan the local service while the parents were out of state at the memorials on the base.

Sleep deprivation definitely has something to do with it, though this sounds more like migraines or daily headaches. Your sleep/wake schedule is controlled by a small gland attached to your brain--the pineal gland. It releases a chemical that makes you sleepy, melatonin, based upon your exposure to natural light.
Can you describe some more details regarding the seizure activity to know better? Sleep deprivation can be one of the triggers for seizure activity. It need not always happen at night. You may consult a neurologist for complete check up and investigations including a sleep study. Take care and share your thoughts.
s like I just suddenly realized the fact that I am doing [a particular activity]), but the street and the cars around me look like something that exists in my mind instead of having their own physical properties, which leave me with a confusion for a minute or two. Could it be that my sleep deprivation has damaged my brain, and now it will take a long time before recovering? Thank you.
I even have the most powerful headache. Then I am afraid to go back to sleep thereby sleep deprivation. Is it a link with MS? I don't know. My neurologist want to schedule a sleep study.
Well, I can give you an experience response. I have a similar problem, and it comes from pain. I have a broken back from a car wreck a long time ago, and even before my back got so bad that I had to take medication, I goofed up my words and was not aware of it on account of the discomfort I had to bear for so long. This is because pain prevents a person from focusing very well on what they're doing and saying. Her ongoing pain from neuropathy is probably doing this.
