I used to be a medical resident. It was my job then to stay up 36 hours every third day.

Try wearing a beeper with a really shrill tone that goes off every ten minutes.

The longest I've ever gone without sleep was 72 hours and it was done with the aid of *AHEM* chemical stimulants while in college.

I don't have the physiological ability to stay up longer than around 30 hours.

I start to hallucinate at 24 hours, and can literally fall asleep while walking at that point.

No insult to you, but I hope I never catch a medical resident on his 36th hour as my doctor.

That's ****ing retarded. I literally see things that aren't there after that long awake. Ooh look; let's remove his appendix. Doctor! that's his spleen!

Done it once. That really was completely pointless, because you'd completely useless for the last 24 hours.

Suffering from ads?

I think the longest I managed was 36 hours. But the last 6 of that were one big haze (and I might have dozed off for about an hour then as well). Then again I had only slept about 5-6 hours the two nights before that.


This reminds me of a recent news story though...

That's how a lot of people describe the first year or so with a newborn.

Sleep is overrated. You gotta have a heart before you can have an attack.
