46 hours one week at LSU. Pulled all nighter Wednesday night then slept two hours Thursday night/Friday morning. Had 3 tests and 3 projects in two days or something like that. Didn't sleep Friday night either because I was so wired up. Slept about 20 hours straight once I went to sleep. Can't say I miss engineering classes

I have gone two or three days without sleep. Well, I would go to bed, maybe drift off for a few minutes at some point, but I use to have trouble sleeping... And I would go two or three nights without sleeping then would only be able to fall asleep out of pure exhaustion..

Before I got sober, (made 2 years April 18) When I was in the worst part and rock bottom of my addiction, and using a lot of meth, I stayed up for about right at 7 days. I kinda dozed of/blacked out a couple min here and there towards the end. The last 2 days were literally the most miserable I've ever been. That long without sleep, you deff start hallucinating and it takes damn near all the energy you have to process simple, everyday things. Honestly, I just felt like a zombie lol

Thank god I found the gift of sobriety and don't have to live like that anymore. Why that was "fun" to me and something I wanted to do, I have no idea.

ETA: I woke up on my parents couch a day and a half later, not knowing how I got there or how long I had been sleeping lol

Absolutely miserable man... At the time, I would usually limit myself to 3-4 days and I'd be fine. No normal or sane person would ever possibly think staying up for 3-4 days straight is ok... In comparison though, the guy I was normally hanging with at the time, would go 10-15 days with only a 15-20 min nap here and there... When he stayed up that long, I had to watch him and explain the simplest things to him like a child. Almost got himself into some very dangerous situations if I wouldn't have been there.

Every single one of you are lying motherfrickers unless you count 10 or 20 minutes catnaps, in which case its much more believable. There is simply no way whatsoever that you're staying up 30, 40, 50 straight hours with ABSOLUTLEY ZERO SLEEP, like not even a head nod off here and there. It isn't possible. Why exaggerate to try to sound cool?

Um ok

Eta when you see the sun come up for a second time, you're running on pure adrenaline and no longer "tired". It's like being in a trance.

Nope not lying

First days of basic training were brutally boring

I said I would doze off for a couple min here and there with the occasional cat nap after forcing myself to eat something. With that said, you underestimate what injecting methamphetamine will do to the human body.. lol

ETA: I've stayed up 30-35 hours completely sober as well.. Given I was detoxing at the time and since high school, I've had sleeping problems. So yes it is very possible. Maybe not for you, but it is 100% possible. Also, I wouldn't even think about a nap or start to doze off while using until I was close to hitting the 48 hour mark or later depending how much I was using.
