Thanks for the link. Still the author gave no proof.
If the body lacks oxygen, one will simply uncover the head in sleep. Skin is not a breathing organ, lungs are.
No proof about working hard or studying in sickness either. If so, I should be brain damaged by now.
10 might be correct but misfortunately worded, because one does not require talking to think.

Sorry! But the skin do breathes, but NOT only by the head; and skin is the largest "organ" of our body.
By the way, there was a movie several years now where a nicelooking lady was completely painted... and step by step, she died for not being allowed to "breathe" by her skin (it can be googled, too)

The skin does breathe in the sense of sweating and exchanging matter, else poultices wouldnt work. If paint would block this function of the skin somehow, I suppose there could be some consequences, just how severe? Like skin ages faster when women wear a lot of make up.
But yeah, I dont believe it can breathe like lungs do.

If you're asleep and the body isn't getting enough oxygen, you'll be roused enough to move such that you're getting enough. It's like people who have sleep apnea. They will take a huge gasp of air to normalize things again (that's why they have poor sleep cycles, since it rouses them from sleep often).
We're talking minor amounts of carbon dioxide exhaled here, not the flooding of one's house with carbon monoxide or something.
Yes, I was referring to something surrounding the mouth and nose that keeps the CO2 concentrated in that area (cloth, plastic, etc.). We learned during medical training that the "A" (airway) in the "ABC's" includes not only with the anatomy that deals with the exchange of gasses, but also includes with the exterior gaseous environment. In this case, the buildup of CO2 cannot be considered minor.
Covering your head with a blanket, if it caused a lack of oxygen concentration, would make you either go up to alpha wave sleep and move the blanket or would force you awake completely and cause you to move it. Your body would not allow brain damage to occur because of a minor lack of regular oxygen concentration.
