Going Without Sleep

[The Rockerfly]

I am a diagnosed insomniac and my limit has been hitting 70 hours by that point I was basicly given tranquilisers
It's horrible staying up that long, you can't think or remember anything

Oh yeah, you're thinking clearly now, but wait until the afternoon and you'll fall asleep no matter what you're doing.

That's what I was thinking. I'm going to pass out, I know it.

Usually when term papers come around. Like 40 or so hours because I need to finish them

I once was awake for at least 4 days. Things started to get pretty weird. I started seeing some strange stuff...

P.S. I woke up in a wheelbarrow in my neighbour's yard.

Have you found out why yet?

About 30+ hours. I woke up about 10am then went out that evening, didn't get home till bout 7 in the morning and then I had to get ready for 10 hour shift at work. It wasn't too bad intill I finished work and then I just crashed.

46 hours is my longest.

Stayed up without sleeping one night because we were having a big ass party and my band were playing, so I had to stay awake for that, but then I got involved in the cleanup operation afterwards and didn't get any sleep till the night again.

To be honest though, at that point, I was just not sleeping for the sake of seeing how long I could go without sleeping, but I sort of collapsed on my bed eventually.

I am currently on my second day in a row without sleep.

 

[trust Milo]

36 hours of no sleep, 36 hours of gaming. 5 tv's, 5 PS3s, 5 mates in one house. was fun

 

[poleboy]

After 24 hours, my mind starts to melt. So I can't say for certain, but probably 30-something hours. It's usually not worth it.

 

[headshotcatcher]

Like 40 I think, I don't get affected by lack of sleep that much, I only get bored very quickly.

Well, it's an intersting story to tell.

 

[Druss the Legend]

Im not sure how long but i remember the schedule.
Got up for school on Friday bout 8am.
Stayed up that night watching movies and playing xbox with my friends.
Did something on the Saturday. Not sure what.
Stayed up til about 2'o'clock am Saturday night playing Xbox live.
Soooo about 42 hours.

Think ill go for 50 next time.

EDIT. Oh yeah and the effects on me was like disorientation(spelling?), it was like being in a dream where everythings hazy and fuzzy.

[Akai Shizuku]

Thanks to a mix of bipolar disorder and being recently dumped I have difficulty sleeping at night.

Last night I got no sleep at all. Tried to sleep, but not tired and I didn't want to sleep anyway. I'm still not tired. My eyes feel a little weird but meh.

 

[Borrowed Time]

Longest for me is 4 days and 5 nights, a total of around 110 hours. I was delusional by the end of it and my friends forced me to go to bed. Was out within 30 seconds of my head hitting the pillow and slept for around 20 hours. Damn that was fun.

For a while I worked 3 jobs and went 60 hours straight every weekend, having 1 hour break between each shift at each of my jobs. That lasted only about 6 months before I just broke down.

 

[Lunar Shadow]

Longest I have stayed up is around 54 hours, once the green flying monkeys showed up I decided it was time to go to bed.

 

[Agarth]

75 hour and then I had passed out for 11 hours. I'm currently trying to go even longer.
