ELI5, why is going to bed super late bad for you if you still get the same amount of sleep?

789 views

I’ve always wondered this, espeically over summer break or for those who work later but why is going to bed late bad for you if you still get the perfect amount of sleep?

For example, last night I wen’t to bed at like 1:30 AM and woke up at 10:30 am, which is 9 hours? So if I’m getting required sleep, how is it bad for me?

It really shouldn’t, **however** there are some other somewhat related factors that could affect quality of sleep if you sleep late, such as other people being up and moving around, too much light in the room, not having a consistent sleep schedule, etc.
