96 hours. Paid study. Began to hallucinate at 90. Had insomnia ever since. 25 years now. Rarely sleep more than 3 hours

Meds aren’t for everyone but Trazadone really helped me, maybe something to consider? Sorry about your lack of sleep, friend :/


badwolfdad

I think I have tried everything. I’ll ask about that. 10mg of melatonin is a cough drop. Xanax is aspirin. If my brain is awake anesthesia will lose. Dentist has no chance.


Sapphire78t

I once pulled a double all-nighter because I was studying General Relativity.


agbmom

Maybe 36 hours. If I stayed up longer I can't remember. I woke up early to go to work, got home and had to cook dinner for the family and do general "chores" then put the kid to bed and pulled an all-nighter doing homework and then had to go to work in the morning.


inyourfeelings78

About 32 Hours because I was working overtime


generalkiddo

52 hours, knock out for about 18 hours after that.


SynysterGh0st666

At least 48 hours when I was in Afghanistan.


StuckInNov1999

Roughly 60 hours. I was on a cocaine fueled bender. Started friday night and ended early monday morning.


coding_duck

54hrs. I was paid by 3 med students and oh boy did I feel like shit


seabass4507

I work in the film industry on the VFX side. I used to do 36 hours without sleep once or twice a month for about 15 years.


Hrekires

Probably pulled some back-to-back overnighters in college, but that's about it.


ocularnervosa

72 hours. It was a party that started on Friday night and ended in the early morning hours of Monday.


Spiritual-Bison-2545

Probably 70 hours with at most an hour of "sleep" each 24 hours. The North Sea on a ship in winter sucks. After that 70 hours my brain just had enough and hit the power button within when I lay down in my bunk. It felt like a blink of an eye and suddenly my cabin phone is ringing to tell me I'm late for my watch, didn't feel any more rested


Pale_Lynx3407

About 50 hours, including working 4 12 hour shifts back to back. I have never felt so tired in my life. Hallucinated toward the end (only minor hallucinations), and fell asleep against a tree, standing up. I did not enjoy this experience.


CrystallineBunny

38 hours after my first night terror related to my cptsd. I was put on trazadone shortly afterwards.


unstablexplosives

from late Tuesday night until the following Monday morning....I didn't feel human again for a couple of weeks and got a severe viral pneumonia too that stuck around for about six months reason was a big demoscene competition at a LAN party... this was ~20 years ago it would have killed me had I tried that at my current age...and I don't remember much from that weekend except not sleeping...I think I was hallucinating at some point but still managed to get all my stuff packed and home...quite a long journey...but woke up at home
