Longest without sleep

[Blasted]

5 days.  Got wonderful hallucinations, heard voices and was a paranoid fuck  

Was that drug assisted?

_{(Caffeine drinks not included)}

Nope

If you lot think I'm fucked up now, you should have seen me then  :lol:  I hardly ever slept properly, just passed out of exhaustion every few days.

3 days is my max too.

When I went through that recent bout of pnemonia, the meds really fucked me up and I went 5 weeks on just 90 mins of sleep every 24 hours. Brutal. I'm still recovering from it and I've been med free for a week and a half. My sleep cycle is majorly screwed up and I constantly have that so tired I must be drugged sluggish feeling.

I have done weeks with a few hors here and there but three day seems to be most peoples no nap limit

I've done weeks with very little sleep, too. Every year, in fact, when it's time to work for the film festival.

Ingrid Bergman must be hard to stay awake threw

Ingrid is OK but Ingmar is worse--his films are all sleep-inducing. 

 

Especially his early ones.

She's hawt.

[Blasted]

She's Monika    She's a moody cunt in the film though.

Persona FTW 

[odeon]

That's Harriet Andersson and she wasn't in Persona. The image is from Sommaren med Monika.

I know, I know   Just felt like expressing my adoration for Persona in the same post

If there's something I recognise from my days as an archive projectionist, it's old Swedish films.

Maybe a couple of days, I like sleep too much. I go through regular phases of 3 or 4 nights in a row with about 3 hours of sleep all night, though.

2 days for me. I tend to get nauseous along with a pounding headache on the 2nd day.

  One time in high school, I stayed up all night long to finish a long-overdue paper.  In those days,
   I didn't even drink coffee.  It was quite an accomplishment.  I felt like shit the next day.

40 hours 2 different time zones (from Chicago to Paris, from Paris to Johannesburg)

[TA]

I was 17, the 48 hours that involved me leaving my childhood home.

3 or 4 days, I couldn't really tell at the end.  It was after my son was born and was stuck in the NICU for a while.  I think I passed out here and there, but never actually laid down and slept.  I didn't get more than 2 hours of sleep in a row for almost 4 months.  It's all kind of fuzzy.
