Sometimes it just feels like you've aged overnight.
Now, a study has found that restless sleep really does make you feel up to 10 years older.
Researchers carried out two studies to determine whether sleep could impact how old someone feels.
First, they asked 429 participants to record their self-perceived age over 30 days, as well as how many nights they felt like they'd had insufficient sleep.
Analysis revealed for each additional day of insufficient sleep, subjective age increased by 0.23 years.
