Do humans 'live' longer the less time they are asleep?

[QUOTE="Loner, post: 62619, member: 28"] It’s funny because sleep itself is a vulnerability that contradicts the notion of survival being the foremost force behind the evolutionary process. If sleep is widespread among lifeforms why haven’t they evolved to no longer no longer need to sleep since it leaves them so vulnerable? Sleep can be hit or miss (as an enjoyable experience) depending on what someone’s dreams are like and whether or not you even have a habit of becoming aware in them. I prefer sleeping to being awake when I’m in control of my dreams and what I get to experience, waking up back here after experiencing something like that is incredibly disappointing. However when I sleep regularly I usually get these disgusting and weird scenarios that typically send me back to a school environment or other recurring environments, so much that I’ve begun to recognize the locations I’m in which tend to have the same consistent areas and layout every time despite being an obvious crude reconstruction of a place I’ve been to irl. You’d think dreams would never display such strong consistency if they were really a bunch of subconscious brain mumbo jumbo. When you have a habit of waking up inside dreams you’ll learn that dreams are really just creepy stage plays with negative entities taking on the form of characters (probably familiar people). It’s easy to dismiss this as some Freudian/Jungian subconscious bullshit that’s “all in one’s head” but that easily debunked when you experience being able to craft entire dream environments from scratch and populate them with whatever you imagine simply through visualization, and then suddenly experience that process being hijacked by an obvious third party that then chases you down throughout whatever distorted environment that spawned for the sole obvious purpose of ejecting you from the dream. As well as when you experience a dream character turning into one of the infamous grey aliens as soon and it’s alerted to your lucidity; and then understanding it’s one of many entities encountered in alien abduction cases. Knowing the truth about dreams and what’s actually going on changes your perspective on regular sleep because it’s creepy as hell, especially when it’s regular dream you managed to become aware in, and you keep being sent back to the same place over and over everytime you sleep while some dream character uses that opportunity to fuck with you to piss you off since you aren’t aware. I don’t mind being awake tbh because I have enjoyable hobbies that can keep me engaged all day and even all night sometimes, but despite that I don’t deny the blissful unconsciousness regular sleep brings, in many ways it’s even better than being aware. You’re no longer subject to the burdens and expectations of the material world. [/QUOTE]
