Iv'e managed to stay up for 2.5 days at the least, having a non stop lan party playying generals, cs & Battlefield. When I was about 7yrs old all I would do is watch tv or something if I could not sleep, or hassel my parents while they were asleep =P.

The thing of it is it is so damn inconsistant. I could sleep a ton sometimes, and others I am forced awake in a miserable state with no real control.

And zeo, I believe the term for taking 30 sleeping pills is known as "suicide" these days.

For me I cant sleep without certain things... Like If I have the TV on .. with the volume down real low, It distracts my brain just long enough to slip into a sleep. Also I cant sleep unless the fan is on .. the sound of the fan helps me sleep .. dunno why.


if you wake up in the night, just go get some milk or something, watch some tv, or hop on the pc till your a bit sleepier. Thats what I do.

You've conditioned your body to need the fan to sleep. Thats why. Just like I need music to fall asleep. I didn't need it before, but I've done it so often that I need it now. I also need omg its kicking in agaispdokasppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppp

longest I've stayed up would probably be half a say to a day, either involving extreme procratination with homework or leaving early to go on a trip.

Isomnia is an anonym for me. You give me a blanket, I will fall asleep.

Haha, you and swift are lucky then. I would kill to be able to fall asleep nowadays. I refuse medication, and tell myself I just need to study and work out more and harder. Days I forget to work out (such as today) result in me not sleeping at all. I've been up for 28 hours right now and I realize I won't be getting sleep until friday night.

And swift, why would it be sad? Like I said, it's not a contest. If it were, I'd say you or Chakra are winning, whereas me and the others who've stayed up for over a day straight (or multiple days) just get to live through what a major inconvenince this can be.

Oh, and Zeo, I must say you have talent to pass out on your "p" key, AND sleep-move your mouse in order to post the action caused by your OD twice now :p



I'm glad to hear some people have enjoyable experiences behind their lack of sleep. I've stayed up 40-50 hours with buddies a few times and that can be good fun, agreed. It's definately inability to sleep due to work or bodily condition that makes a prospect such as many hours in which one could be enjoyable otherwise... a bad spot.
