Try not sleeping for 3-4 days

Is it jsut me or when somebody doesnt get sleep for days, they start to talk a bit more then they should. its kind of like a lie-detector. people just open up and tend to say whatever comes to their mind, stuff they usually would not say. Why does this happen???

 

Its a high...kind of like a drug that happens in your brain when yur overtired...Im a chronic insomniac...I deal with it all the time !!!

 

but do u get the feeling of being very open, and talking about anything that comes to mind, like secrets and personal thoughts

 

after 3 days, I no longer make sense

 

whats the longest anyone gone without any sleep???

 

I suffer from insomnia due to smoking weed, its like I need weed to get to sleep, the longest I've been awake is 4 days and I was tripping, seeing stuff out of the corners of my eyes and seeing spiders and stuff...

I read an article on the internet about a DJ who stayed awake for 7 days, it was a charity thing and by the end of it he was insane, there was also the TV show that was like Big Brother but the contestants had to stay awake, they had to lie in a comfy bed every night for an hour, the last person to stay awake hadnt slept for 7 days. He got a cash prize for it, apparently one of the contestants started tripping and thought they where in a train station. My mates always used to go on about that TV show when i was shattered from lack of sleep, first post =)

 

2 weeks..with maybe an hour 1/2 in a series of micronaps abiut 1/2 way thru
it was cause i was accidently takin old meds that really increased the side effects..
it was not fun
i was seein like armies of like chipmunk ghosts commin oit of the woods and even when wed stop id feel like i was floating through the woods and shit..it was crazy
wed been driving around in circles lost for weeks but it was kinda funny

 

the talking and "lie detector" stuff is because your brain is too exhausted to perform any controlled processing. so, everything that comes to your mind comes out because you don't have the energy to sort through what you want to say and want to keep quiet.

(this is i got from my social psych text, aronson wilson and akert.)

and you can actually die if you get absolutely no sleep... it really only occurs in a rare degenerative brain disorder called fatal familial insomnia, because after a person is awake for 40 hours they'll start to have "microsleeps"

got this from my abnormal psychology text by durand and barlow.

 

i couldn't do it. i can only just do 24 hours. i love my sleep WAAYY too much.

 

60 hours is the most i can do without drugs.

 

if i dont sleep for awhile that happens to me... i get real delerious and start speaking non-sense... and everyone gets pissed at me so i just go to bed

 

most ive gone without sleep was 5 days 4 nights, that was with the help of my little friend speed... the 5th day was x-mas day, i had to drive to my fams house and hour away. I crashed my car and ended up sleeping on a mates couch right through till boxing day. not cool

 

4 days withou sleep? sounds horrible, i guess i would cold turkey or something. i'm a sleep addict!1

 

i actually enjoy staying up, the night is so calm!

 

haha i talk so much when i haven't slept, and i'm really honest and want to connect to people, and always make jokes and say "you knooow?!" but then i'm all apolagetic because i feel like i'm acting like i'm on ecstasy, and even though i have nothing to hide, i don't want to appear all fucked up around my family.

i'm really sensitive to drugs, caffeine, not sleeping, anything that changes consciousness. partly because i'm small and partly because i have schizo episodes. so if i stay up two days and one night, everything is all wavy and bubbly and floaty and sizes and distances are distorted. anything longer than that, scary stuff happens, things come alive, everything has color spots...

 

oh yes, i'm a sleep addict too lol, i dunno if i could even go 1 day without sleeping anymore

 

If you don't get enough sleep, you dream with your eyes open. You need your dream sleep.

well.. I don't try, but longest was about a week.. or twoo, with several hours somewhere in between.. and then I took sleeping pills. but anyway, I used to work at a store back then.. and all our stock started coming out from the walls at me one night.. its not good to bring work home

 

The most i went is probably around 36 hours...I can stay up late but i need sleep at some point.

 

I got really sick when I did 36 hours. Anything I did made me feel more like shit. All I could do was sleep.
