How little sleep can you get and still survive?

tweakers stay up for days at a time. So I guess 3-4 days if you are a STRONG mind. I've tried depriving myself of sleep before...and when it hits the 24 hour mark. It just feels so shitty, and sick feeling. So I usually cant stay up longer then 30 hours. If you stay up for 48 hours you are suppose to start hallucinating and you become very delusional.

I start to get weird shit happening in my peripheral vision when i've been up 36+ hours. I've heard of people being up for 8-9 days. That was with very heavy meth usage, so they weren't sober.

I enjoy staying up for 24-48 hours at once. You most definitely start to get a little shaky. You can notice your mind working much differently than usual, and the sleep deprivation almost feels like a high. The most intense was after 3-4 days of no sleep, at the end of which I noticed small, constant hallucinations in my peripheral vision.

i used to be extremely manic before i got my meds regulated, i would stay up for about a week at a time and feel okay, sleep a few hours after 7 days then do it again. this went on for years. of coures, i'd also get depressive every couple of months and sleep most of the time (i called it making up for lost sleepy times from being manic).

i dunno, things start getting really weird around day 4.

I've been up 72 hours before, on the second day I did mushrooms and the third day I was drinking wine and smoking pot throughout the day. At the end of the third night I was hallucinating that the blankets on the couch were turning into cats and running around the room (in the dark, I couldn't see the cats in full detail just shadow outlines)

Sleep deprivation will kill you eventually. Experiments with rats have been performed which were woken up by being spun on a large wheel every time their neural activity started to show sleep patterns. They ate a lot but lost weight rapidly and eventually died (can't remember how long but I think it was 11 days). Pretty sick experiment imho.

The record for sleep deprivation is reportedly around 14 days and the person suffered no long term effects.

Last time I stayed up for a considerable amount of time was during uni exams, I remember hallucinating layers of smoke in the air and generally having a very shitty time.

I stayed up for four days sober without feeling more than a 'Oh it's 11 and I'm feeling a bit tired'. And I wasn't just sitting down, I was out and walking all around the place. (No money for a hotel, in Hong Kong.)

The key things were to get as much sunlight as possible, stay active, keep yourself very well fed with healthy foods, and it does also help if you work up to it. For about three weeks prior to that I was functioning at 100% on only two hours a day of sleep because I had slowly worked down my sleeping time until it reached that point.

I blew all my work though on the train back to Shanghai. There was just no choice but to sleep as long as possible. Trains are boring as fuck.

I thought about it afterwards, and I bet I could have gone down to nearly no sleep. That would be cool as fuck. Imagine how much you could do if you operated at 100% with absolutely no sleep.

> How little sleep can you get and still survive?

Donno. I slept only a couple of hours a night my freshman and sophomore years in college. Tried the 15 minute power nap every few hours technique. It eventually caught up to me and I suspect that I slept enough in the following years to more than make up for what I had saved. Currently, I sleep about six hours a night, but I also meditate for an hour or two in the afternoon. The longest I have stayed up was around 84 hours, finishing a project (no drugs, beyond caffeine). Towards the end, I was starting to see things (people) that weren't there.

Ah thats pretty interesting. My friend also called them "shadow people", but I thought he was making it up. I never knew there was an actual term, but it definitely explains the type of hallucinations.

I read about a guy while I was taking psychology. They kept him in a laboratory setting & kept him awake for 12 days, drug free. I think by the 8th day he became completely psychotic. By day 12 he was talking in gibberish and obviously having very serious hallucinations. He slept for 2 1/2 days, when he woke up he was as normal as before the experiment.


Lack of sleep isn't deadly, nor will it cause any permanent damage. As far as we know, but the amount of available data on this subject is limited. This was done back in the 70's I believe, now this type of stuff is considered "unethical" so they can no longer conduct experiments like this on human subjects. Well at least not to this extent. You could do it voluntarily but I'd think after you started getting a little lunny, they'd have to let you sleep (due to ethics).

EDIT: I tried looking briefly for a link to the specific experiment I'm talking about, but I couldn't find it.

So for everyone who has participated in sleep deprivation: what happens to your appetite during long periods without sleep? Do you eat more or do you simply lose your desire to eat?

Personally, I tend to lose my appetite. At 30+ hours, I'm just never that hungry. I'll munch on a random thing or two, but a big meal doesn't appeal to me at all.

ill go on long cross country drives, straight driving for 36 hours+

usually i have to plan it ahead of time so when i start getting really tired around the 20 hour point the sun is comming back up, which spikes my natural rhythm back to wanting to stay awake...

things get really weird, really weird. i remember one night after abot 40 hours i was in some city in s florida, and i thought the whole city was fake, all of the buildings were cardboard cutouts, any door i could have opened would have showed me the truth of the lies...

I was out of my fucking head.... it was kinda scary.

the odd thing is that at some point, (40 some hours) i pass the point of no return, where i physically can not sleep even if i try. at which point i usually have to just drink alot of beer really quick and find a comfy couch..
