      It’s pretty amazing isn’t it!! I’ve only ever lasted for 62 ish hours and I fall asleep standing up ! My mother found me and said I was sleep walking to the kitchen sink and trying to do dishes??!! I can’t even remember falling asleep lol! It’s the strangest thing ever and it’s pretty scary to the way your body twitches and jumps when you do try to sleep makes your heart skip a beat or 2! It’s scary

    52 or 56 hours, don't remember the accurate amount since this was years ago. But after the 48 hour mark everything just kinda feels different and you might fell sleep anywhere if you dont keep yourself doing something.
    I guess the 24-36 hours or so is kinda the most common. Specially if you're suffering with insomnia or sleepless nights.

      Different people can withstand different amounts. I can operate for 36 hours straight with no detrimental effects, past that I hit the micro sleeps and I’ve never gone past 48 hours. That being said, after just 5 hours of sleep I reset back to full strength completely and can go another 36 with almost no issues.
      Yet I know other members of my family are barely capable of functioning if they go just 18 hours without sleep. Tolerances are different for different people even for things like sleep.

By hour 22, my concentration is shot, I feel nauseous, etc. I had to drive 60 miles to get home and the whole way all I wanted to do was just sleep. I even contemplated just pulling to the side of the road and taking a nap, but I knew if I did I'd be out cold and a cop would eventually stop.

    I've stayed up for a little more than a week while high on some stimulants.

Ended up crashing and falling asleep for around two days and some change, waking up periodically but not really remembering it.

    I suffer from mild to severe insomnia, I've personally gone past the 2 week point a few times, but only in times of extreme stress . You start hearing stuff around day 6 or 8, and start seeing things around day 10. You really don't care about hygiene or food. The worst thing is everyone telling you "take it one day at a time" and "things will be better tomorrow " but when your day doesn't end for more than 2 weeks, that's a horror story to hear.

    In my party days I went a full week. Friday afternoon through the next Saturday morning in fact.
    A waking dream is how I'd describe it. Not like "oooh, it's a bit surreal". After a few days I kept becoming whoever last left the room, and I don't blame everyone else for thinking I was being ridiculous but it was entirely out of my control. By the 6th day I was full blown in another dimension, and had hallucinated a 60ish yo's entire life inside a drop of condensation in the water bottle I was holding, new people arrived and they were fascinated by me so kept asking me questions to try and make sense of the gibberish that came out of my mouth.... then they tried to get me to go out for a drink in town so I said I had to go meet someone but instead just stumbled home and passed out as I opened the door. Everything after the water drop is a mix of hallucination, memory and deduction based on evidence from after I woke up again.
    I don't reccomend!
    Since then, I've hallucinated plowing into a pedestrian and having them smash through the windscreen... just because I had an early start and late finish at the office one day.
    Now I can barely handle a normal office hours morning without passing out mid-day.

    I went 11 days without sleep a few years ago when I was dealing with deep depression, I experienced everything in this video apart from my immune system failing and getting super sick which was probably due to the fact that I’m pretty sure I stayed home the entire time. This was undoubtedly the worst experience of my entire life. I kept hearing noises that didn’t exist, I would put something down on a table in front of me or whatever and blink and it would disappear. I would constantly forget what I was doing and where I was I had almost no short term memory and I even remember at one point I couldn’t remember who I was like my name or any other memories. It was horrifying. I hallucinated all kinds of messed up things that I don’t even want to talk about, I would find myself looking at one of them then sort of snap out of it and find that I was staring at some sort of inanimate object. It’s hard to explain it exactly but I kept reliving memories from years past and it would feel so real that it made me question where in reality and time I really was. I would go through an entire day from years past feeling and hearing everything that happened so vividly in the memory then just randomly snap back to reality and realize I was staring at a wall or something. I would look at the clock and it would say like 3:00pm and I could look away then look back and it would be hours later. It was such a surreal and horrifying experience and I hope it never happens to me ever again.

    My longest time without sleep was 33 hours. I worked four eight hour shifts in a row because it was Christmas time and every minute of those 33 hours paid triple time. Each shift had two 20 minute breaks, one thirty minute lunch. The 2nd, 3rd, & 4th shift had an extra 20 minute break for staying over eight hours. Although I never actually slept during that time, the last ten or twelve hours were worked on autopilot. The job was extremely repetitive, and was done with shear muscle memory, my mind was not very active. Along with all the other overtime I got that Christmas week, I took home $2800 after taxes. Two foremen allegedly received write ups for permitting this. On the way home, I realized nothing looked familiar. I was three exits past where I should have gotten off the interstate. On another occasion, after working 7 days a week, mostly 16 hours a day for a month, I went to sleep driving home and woke up rumbling through the grassy median.
