It was about 6 days. It was during college and I was at the peak of a manic episode fueled by alcohol, nicotine, and caffeine. I worked nights on the weekends and went from the beginning of my Sunday night shift through my Friday night shift. I went to my classes during the day, hopped from one party to the next at night until everyone else passed out, then just drove through all of the back country roads we have while everyone else was asleep. In the first couple of days I had auditory hallucinations and 3-4 days in there were shadow people. By the end of the week it was hard to tell if I was awake or dreaming. Surprisingly when I finally slept it was only for like 13 hours and I made it back in for my Saturday night shift.

I think it was about 28h when my first child way born.

Usual day, up at 6am, normal day. Then wife stated around 10pm ‘alright, we need to go to the hospital’. Few hours later at around 6am child was born. The aftermath and heading home took a few hours as well and finally got some rest at 10am.

The funny thing is I did not sleep that much then. I think about 4 hours and was good to go.

Oh yeah, and my wife was probably also happy to get some rest lol.

Roughly 37 hours. I went from a party to shopping with friends to a wedding. It was wild and it shows the power of alcohol and drugs ❤️

Probably wouldn’t survive it today, tho.

3 days and 2 nights in the military.

In the 3rd day I was semi-awake and seeing shit. i.e. familiar home town sceneries behind distant trees, although I was nowhere near.

Around 2.5-3 days. On a LAN party in 2003 or so. 2 nights without sleep. Lots of caffeine. It was fun at first but really started feeling terrible after the 2nd night.

3 days. Mostly just eating fruit and water. Caffeine and processed sugar leads to crashes that I’d learned from previously. I could have done 4 days, but I began to notice that I was not paying very good attention to passing traffic when crossing the road, so I stopped.

I don’t even know. Im not sure if I even did an all nighter in college but definately came close and with cons Im not sure if I did not fall asleep for periods here and there.

3 ish days, it was awful. Everything starts to feel fake and I got really paranoid

About 72h going from a scouts camp into a festival. first 2 days included a lot of coffee, last day might have had a little coke sprinkled in.

72 hours or nearly so, and basically worked the whole time too. It was the first time my roommate gave me Adderall to try. I did around 2 weeks worth of work in my auto body shop, then slept like 14 hours straight. To top that off I was around 350 pounds too. A week later I was on the stuff legit. Three years later I was racing bicycles and under 190 pounds. Three years after that, I was disabled from a crash with 2 SUVs.

I think around 48 hours.

High school LAN parties.

3 days during last summer. It was before I got my summer job and after school ended.

It wasn’t for any particular reason I just didn’t wanna go to sleep and just stayed on my phone 🤷‍♀️

3 nights. On the 4th I got 3 hours of sleep.

Around three days. No drugs, just showers and energy drinks I took sip by sip for a long time. I was somehow productive, but caught my attention stuck a couple of times on something banal like a working microwave buzz. Everything felt dull and I seemingly had no emotions near the end.

I had insomnia for many years. I slept 30-60 mins a night then crash for five or six hours once a week. It was horrible. I’d rather take these mind altering drugs than go back to that
