Hey guys! I don't know why, but I just didn't get to sleep last night. And since I might have to work today, what's a great way to stay up all day after an all nighter.
I almost always seem to crash around 11 in the morning, so I need some advice guys
Thanks for your help!

Caffeine fruit and vegetables should help
I can't do all-nighters anymore though I always turn into a vicious dickhead

I can be a vicious dickhead for a day, I just need to keep my brain awake. I'm gonna go munch on some strawberries and drink some coffee.

keep busy...maybe there's anew tv show you haven't binged? Orange is the new black season 3 just came out...play video games, WoW is good...listening to music helps.
really you just need to keep yourself doing somethin until its time to go to bed on the next cycle...that can take awhile if you're thinking about so don't think about it
i take back watching tv shows unless youre super into them...otherwise you;l fall asleep watching the,

Well admittedly whenever I pull an all-nighter meth is usually involved
The crash from that + no sleep just makes me feel absolutely horrible

Yesterday I was in your predicament.
I had tripped all day and had only 1 hour of sleep.
I went to the public pool ant this completely recharged my energy levels.
There is something magic about water, It refreshes you.
Go swimming or, take a good fresh shower. It will wash the tiredness away.

eat some REALLY spicy food, sure way to feel awake

Staying awake is simple, at least for me but I'm an insomniac so it may be different for someone who's not.
Just don't lay down or sit back in a comfortable recliner or something. It's generally pretty hard to fall asleep sitting up or standing around. The only way I've ever passed out while sitting up was after being up for 36 hours drinking the entire time.
--------------------
With my face against the floor I can’t see who knocked me out of the way. I don’t want to get back up but I have to so it might as well be today. Nothing appeals to me no one feels like me, I’m too busy being calm to disappear. I’m in no shape to be alone contrary to the shit that you might hear. You can't wake up, this is not a dream. You're part of a machine, you are not a human being With your face all made up, living on a screen. Low on self esteem, so you run on gasoline

I've only had about 10 hours of sleep in the past 5 days. Strangely there are not much side effects.
I'm homeless and sleep outside so it's hard to get comfortable. But even when I go to one of the shelters and have an actual bed, I still can't sleep.
I get a strange feeling when I am laying down and when it happens, I have to flex/stretch everything in a way that if you saw, you'd probably wonder if I'm about to go into a rage... and it's gotten so bad that it will keep me up from 9pm all the way until about 4:30 in the morning.
But when I was sleeping outside, sometimes I couldn't go to sleep so I would just walk around all night... think it might be because I stopped taking Trazadone 150 3 weeks ago or because I haven't had my thyroid medicine in a week, just need money for a refill.
Also, I'd recommend Folgers Instant Coffee Crystals. Put like 3 or 4 spoons of it in a cup and drink it with hot water.

My gf and some of her waitress friends seem to like those "5 hour energy shots" I ve never tried but I've seen her drink just half of one and be all hyper so I guess they must work pretty good!

Meth you can stay awake for days and some people can even go weeks without sleep. I personally have gone six days without sleep and the fifth day was the most euphoric day of my life.
