I often find when I have to pull a all nighter I feel paranoid that day.

Answers:
Yes. lack of sleep can cause paranoia it can also cause hallucinations,and jitters- your body needs at least 6 hours of sleep per night to function properly.
Absolutely! It can also make you restless, irritable, drowsy, dizzy, unable to concentrate, etc.

Get some sleep as soon as you can.
Lack of sleep does do strange things to one's mind. So it is possible to experience paranoia after an all-nighter. I know when I don't get enough rest, I become an emotional basket case.
BIG TIME! That is one reason people on uppers or drugs get so paraniod bc they do not sleep while they are on them. It will also cause hallucinations, dizziness, and headaches.
Yes it can bc your body is so tired it automatically goes on defense.
I think I read somewhere that if you go several days without sleeping, then you may even start to hallucinate. Maybe your brain is so desperate to go through the sleep process that it goes ahead and attempts to do so even if you are awake.
Lack of sleep catches up with you. Try to get two nights of good 8 hour rest and you should feel better.
