I'm not usually on here this late. Its when I get in late and still buzzing that I find myself here as I can't sleep.

But I know I'll pay for it tomorrow when Ive had no sleep. It usually hits me really hard suddenly.

But whats the longest period youve gone without sleep for? Mine was for 3 days and 2 nights once. I went out two nights running really late on work days so literally had no time to sleep. I remember feeling like an absolute zombie. But I did have the best sleep ever afterwards. It may even be good for you to do that occasionally. I dunno.

About 3 days. Maybe 4(when younger and on quite a few drugs)

I love the floaty feeling you get when you are beyond tired :love:

I like it when you're out in fresh air. But when sat inside and not able to go to sleep(like at work) its horrible.

I remember riding my bike home once and constantly dozing off whilst pedalling along the seafront. I was so desperate to get home before I had a crash.

I know, I think it's the best feeling ever to not sleep for over a day and feel extremely tired then go to bed and realize that for the next 12+ hours you'll sleep sooooo heavy:lovedup: It seems that the pillows and blankets feel more comfortable than they have ever been.

That said, 3 days was my record and I still remember pretty much everything I did during those 3 days even though I was on loads of cocaine.

I really doubt I'll be able to sleep tonight :bored: and to make things worse I need to be in college in 6 hours.

About 3 days also. I had essays to be done and one of them somehow deleted itself the day before it had to be in so I did it all over again :crazy:

I got through so many cans of Coke and was typing away with my tunes blaring to keep me upbeat and motivated. And then I was dragged along (literally) for some post-essay drinks which included 4 double Jack and Cokes lol

It must have been awful having to re-do an essay youd already written!

On an unrelated note you have a large finger! lmao

I stayed up 3 days before I went to Florida one year, so I knew I could sleep on the plane. Don't really like flying.

36-38 hours. That was a few weeks ago when I tried to reset my sleeping pattern. I was just surviving on energy drinks the whole day LOL.

Friday night to Monday morning too many times.

Without cheating though [:evilgrin:] probably just a regular all nighter on the Xbox. I do one once or twice a month.

Exactly what I need to do tonight. I'll end up watching the BB launch in some catatonic state of delirium. Probably for the best, too.

One day I didn't sleep at all.

I woke up at 8:00 am on a monday and didn't sleep until Tuesday 1 am ish. (wednesday morning if you like as midnight is officially the next day)

For about 2 hours during that it was hell, I was contemplating jumping off a bridge. I was tired but couldn't sleep but after that a boost of energy came out of nowhere and I was fine.
