Yes, but I don't like doing it. I love sleep too much.
Have you ever stayed up for over 24 hours straight? (Question of the Day 12-11-12)
Yes, but it wasn't due to "I'm gonna party all night, WAARRHLBB!!". Had a flight from Hong Kong to England delayed by several hours, then had to make my way home from Manchester airport.
Yes, but I had to in order to run certain medical tests. It actually made me sick - my body didn't like it.
Christ, I used to do it all the time. Far more than 24 hours too. These days, I'm homicidal if I have less than 5 hours of sleep in a given night.
" Yes, but I had to in order to run certain medical tests. It actually made me sick - my body didn't like it. "I had a similar experience. I've stayed up as long as a week straight, but it wasn't by choice.
Most I did was about 100 hours, simply to see how long I could. I seem to get by with very little sleep every day (~4 hours), so I figured I'd be able to make it a good while. The first day was the only one I felt tired, but your body starts reacting in odd ways past the 60 hour mark. From 60-80 I remember feeling very cold (and unable to get warm again), and past 80 all of my joints and muscles became very sore. I could have made it longer but I realized that whatever was happening was my body trying to tell me: "Something has gone very wrong, and I bet you're causing it." I eventually went to bed at 103 hours in, simply because it became too painful to ignore any more. Even breathing wasn't feeling right.
Now that I know my limits, I have no desire to do that again. I felt fucked up for a good week.
I've definitely stayed up for more than 24 hours on many occasions. The longest was for a bout two and a half days because of exams and work.
Many many many times. I'm a cop, so stakeouts and scene security and just fucking gong-show weeks make sleeping a luxury at times. Especially when we're short-staffed in a remote northern posting.
Shit I remember one New Year's in 2003 that I was awake and going from call to call for like 4 days straight. In a 7 day period I had about 4 hours sleep max. It was horrible.
Yes, was working on a sketch on a college wall with a friend. We both love sketching, so we forget about sleep.
And another time after a stupid party
On Monday and Tuesday I was really sick so I did not eat or sleep for 2 days, lost 12 pounds in a week >_>
