How long can you go without sleep?

My record now is 88 hours. Not a wink.

I have been told this can cause some serious problems, although I don't know exactly what.
 
OH, lets see: renal failure, permanent eye damage, CNS damage.... hmmm.... Y should wave his Google wand over this thread.

are you sure? i thought acute schizophrenia was the main side effect of sleep deprivation.
 
Back during the Loadmaster days, we had to go longer than the flight crew due to load, monitor and then unload.
I think a bit over 48 was the longest I ever had to not only stay awake, but also stay sharp..
They had some good meds for us that helped but damn it caused a massive crash when you stopped taking it..

Since then, I've gone a bit over 24 hours until I said
"To hell with this" and passed out asleep no matter where..
 
record is about 44-48 hours...

i sleep only about 4-5 hours every night, and no daytime naps.
 
sometimes I like to come home and go to bed at about 7 and sleep clear through to the next day....that owns

Psychosis is possible, but not schizophrenia.

Yeah, thats what i meant. I dont think it will create schizophrenia but sleep deprivation has the same symptoms as a schizophrenic episode. For some reason hallucinations that the room is on fire are also common in sleep deprivation for some reason.

My record is 40 hours.
 
I think 3 days is my record. I was at Xfest(outdoor camping/concert). I remember taking a dump about 4 in the morning and going nuts hearing things. Then my buddy shook the hell out of it, making me think he was gonna tip me over.
 
hmm i lost track of how long i went without sleep for (finals). it's pretty amazing to think that your brain can still function correctly while hallucinating (i got the 2nd highest grade on genetics final and i was hearing shit and seeing stars from not having slept for days... then again i was on quite a bit of ritalin).

all i know is that im about ready to pass out for a month straight now that im done.
 
on coke: days after days after days, fucking finals...........yea, but I have insomnia

why do people underate sleep?

DID YOU KNOW: Research shows that the immune system needs 9 1/2 hours of sleep in total darkness to recharge completely -- the authors of the book Lights Out explain.

Why is proper sleep important?

Cancer cells are always developing in the body. It’s an ongoing process. The immune system has components whose job it is to seek out and destroy cancer cells.


I got this from a website, but it is common sense when you think about it.

I have no idea why people deprive themselves of sleep.
 
I had to stay awake one time at work because it snowed like crazy and the store closed...but I couldn't leave...neither could anyone else.

After 48 hours....I started seeing crazy things!
 
84 hours is the longest I have went without sleep...

I used to do the Non-sleep marathon every weekend... I would be awake from 6 am Friday morning and wouldn't sleep again until 10 pm on Monday night....

Your body/brain does need sleep to regenerate itself to help maintain things such as heart rate, body temperature...etc The biggest problems I ever encountered was headaches, especially behind my eyes, being terribly cold, touchiness or lack of patience, and my brain "taking its own naps". Not really blackouts but short periods of time, a minute or less, where the brain would kind of shut-down... The scarest part of the no sleep was always driving, and there is no worse feeling than trying to fight off sleep when you are behind the wheel.
 
Do all you people who go without sleep find that you become easily overwhelmed or confused? i know when i go about 40 hours that i start to become very easily confused. an action movie where there is alot of movement almost makes me forget who i am or where i live because i cannot follow whats happening. I know that they use that trick for interrogation, just wondering if anyone has experienced it?
 
From what I recall of sleep studies that I read (not all that many honestly), the thing they saw a lot in people that stayed up a lot was blood infections.

I would imagine that many of the side effects beyond that are related to that - blindness and what not.

I would also say that is likely what resulted in the blindness in one eye of Euler the mathematician (happened during his intense stretches of work trying to figure out Fermat's last theorum).

All in all, if I don't set an alarm, I will easily sleep 12 hours.
 
it depends on how much meth I have on hand...
 
I'm an evil bitch if I'm lacking sleep so I won't test out how long I can stay up in order to protect my loved ones.

I like the way coffee tastes. I can go right to sleep for the most part after drinking it.

ECA would keep me up and make me jittery though.

I also read you waxing poetic on the dopaminergic and appetite supressant effects of caffeine. But you could still sleep huh?

I love to sleep as much as you but caffeine wacks me out.

What did DNP do to your sleep habits?
 
well well well.

i work in sleep medicine right now.

its very bad for you.

having said that, i go upwards of 60-65 hours a lot of times when i work 2 nights in a row and have class both days all day.
 
65 hours on a ftx,we had time to sleep but I couldnt ,mainly because every half hour arty sims would come flying beside my hooch and t flashes,I just gave up and waited for the shit to happen again
