    This document summarizes the effects of "sleep addiction" on college students. It reports that a 2014 study found 98.4% of college students are affected by sleep addiction. Sleep addiction is defined as choosing sleep over additional productivity, which can negatively impact academics and social life. The document includes testimony from students and experts about the dangers of sleep addiction, with some students saying they haven't slept in days or are failing classes due to sleeping too much. It concludes by urging people affected by sleep addiction to call a phone number for help, stating that sleep is the enemy and addiction can be beaten.
