I can't even go 1 day, I pass out. I don't understand how people can go like a week without sleeping and keep working and stuff.

The longest I have gone without sleep is about 50 hours, I doubt I could go much longer then that and I don't really care to find out if I could.

I once was awake for about 4½ days.

Don't ask. Nothing to be proud of...

Some can go 90+ hours then die, it's the every day cyber/cafe-life in South Korea, where Starcraft is their religion.

Going a week without sleep will kill you.:|

The longest I've ever gone was 2 days and 1 night.

Last day exam on college, I stayed awake studying to the next day of the exam, I was so happy after all the misery of studying over 17-18 years of my life, I couldn't resist the craziness with my friends, lol, I think I'd stayed over 40-42 hours.

Drove for 30 hours before.. more then once. like 3 times. Probably will do it again. Didnt take any super-stingers or anything like no-doze or anything. I have stayed up longer then that though. back in the day, used to party a lot. Id get drunk, play videogames the rest of the day... mainly Red Faction2, then get drunk again. usually went for about 45 hrs when I did that. Ive seen someone stay up for a week and a half though. Meth is super uncool btw.

2 days during the final exams. I hadn't studied before that and I had like 50% attendance and I drank coke and kept splashing ice cold water in my face. Being lazy always seems to hurt me later on but still I can't stop being lazy. I always have the same battle with myself, go lie down in bed or go study and go lie down in bed always wins.

I can't manage to be any good at Starcraft when I'm fully awake...


Anyway, the longest I've been up.... I don't know. Not much,
But I'm not that old, so I have time to.. not waste.. on sleeping.

You HAVE to wait until normal sleeping time if you do it. You can't sleep during the day or it ruins everything.

Im currently in the low 30's for the second time this week alone ( my weeks run from tuesday to tuesday). No coffea or chemical help either. I usually go without sleep for at least 40 hours once a week and thats going to work and actually functioning. Ive probably done 70+ several times though i have never counted.

Usually if i stay up for longer than 30 hours its almost impossible for me to fall asleep.

One day I woke up at 7:30 for uni, went on an all night drinking night that night and didn't get any sleep before uni the next day, and then that night went on an all night gaming night and went to sleep at 6:00 in the morning - so thats 46 and a half hours. The last few hours I was practicly asleep though. I was just playing smash bros badly while almost being asleep.

it was something like 28 hours, if i had something that had to be done ( work etc) i could probably stay up longer, keeping your self occupied is hard to do after 28 hours :P

30 hours or something was the longest. I just don't see the point in staying up for days, you feel horrible and can't concentrate on anything.

I've stayed up for three days straight before. It was kind of hellish, but I just couldn't sleep. I got to the point where I was so tired that I could not sleep. It was ridiculous, but oh-so satisfying when I finally fell asleep for a few hours.

I often go a day or two without sleeping. I'm an insomniac and I don't particularly enjoy sleeping anyway.

one day I stood up for about 23hrs. Reason is because I had a paper due in the morning and had to finish it so I stood up all that night. Ill NEVER do that again (well I dont plan on doing so). My class started at 7 in the morning but I leave my house at 6am to get there on time. I didnt even eat anything but rushed to the subway and on the ride to the college I felt I was going to pass out and fall on the tracks, felt dizzy, and almost felt like vomiting. Got to class on time and probably banged my head more than 10 times on the desk struggling to stay up. The professor wasnt pleased. At the end of the class he ask everyone did they do the project and didnt even collect it. I was mad but happy it was the only class I had that day. Went home and slept like a baby.
