What happens when you don't get any sleep at all?

This got me thinking about what sleep deprivation can do to a person. For example, for some reason after an all-nighter, I have a weird habit of making everything I say rhyme. After I get a nap, it disappears though.

So does anyone else have any weird habits when they had to stay up all night? How long does it take you to recover?

When Diablo II came out, I got off work Friday morning (after working all night since 10), came home, installed the game, and my buddies and I proceded to play until Sunday morning around 8 or 9 ish. I promptly fell asleep, woke up for work that night, and went to work.

My body is pretty used to that sort of thing, although nowadays I enjoy getting my sleep, but if I don't get it for a night or two because something is calling my name in ominous and demonic tones, I don't fret too much.

I get rather loopy if I stay up all night. My body can barely function at the end of the day when I do that. Therefore I crash early on those days.

If I don't get any sleep at all at night, I end up falling asleep during my classes. It doesn't take long for me to recover because I AM in public and my actions would probably cause my grades to plunge. Oh yeah. My eyes also get swollen and it takes a considerable amount of effort to keep them open.

After the first 24 hours, it simply becomes a matter of staying active and replacing sleep with calories. If I remain active, I can remain focused. As soon as I stop, fatigue comes rushing over me and I might start to hallucinate.

I've had to pull lotsa all-nighters for studying. I'll go all night, the next day I might be a bit groggy, but I keep energy about myself, still. But for some reason, 4pm-5pm hits me like a freight train and that often knocks me out in a matter of minutes irregardless of what I'm doing. I had to cram like hell for a test once. Got it over with and had to go to another lecture from 5-6pm. I was out ten minutes before it started, passed out, and snored throughout class o__o;

Eventually I'll get a second wind and be alright, but before that I start to frequently nod off, and if I'm talking to someone sometimes what they're saying to me is incorporated into a mini-dream before I wake up again seconds later, and I get really confused and have no idea what's going on. Occasionally I'll respond while I'm still asleep with total nonsense.

Neogin Mar 13, 2006 07:07 PM

I have an urge to go to the bathroom. Why? Hell if I know. The least amount of sleep I've had was about 3, so, yeah..

Fjordor Mar 13, 2006 07:17 PM

When I pull all-nighters, I have insatiable urges to play the piano until my fingers hurt. And even then, I sometimes don't stop.

Gumby Mar 13, 2006 07:23 PM

If you stay up long enough you will start to hallucinate, along with the fatigue that accompanies sleep deprivation, it inhibits your ability to think clearly.

iokcs Mar 13, 2006 08:14 PM

I get rather loopy... strangely enough, ill either be.. hyper or ill just be a complete zombie... it happens all the time.. going to school and having sleep problems dont mix too well... ._. ive never stayed up long enough to hallucinate, i only stay awake till i start to feel nauseous, then ill stop whatever im doing to sleep... not too healthy, i kno...but my brain doesnt know when its time to sleep... lol

Gumby Mar 13, 2006 08:18 PM

After about 50-60 hours of being I started to hallucinate. Also after the 5th week of only getting 3 hours of sleep a night I started to hallucinate and fall asleep while standing up.

doyeon Mar 13, 2006 08:20 PM

Usually my face and ears get pretty hot. Then i usually have a bad stomach ache and I have to go to the bathroom.

JackTheRipper Mar 13, 2006 08:38 PM

I've only pulled a full all nighter once. Me and my friend stayed up all night and then in the morning we started to play video games and I kind of just fell asleep in the middle of it.

Dyesan Mar 13, 2006 08:40 PM

Headache, then I slowly dwindle to my bed, and try to lie in positions where it's "impossible" for me to fall asleep, but I always fall asleep anyways. ex. Sleeping with one of your arms standing up.

Spyer Mar 13, 2006 09:15 PM

Errr..... well, I think I just play games for about 4 hours. Haha, I just play until its impossible to fall asleep, and then I just asleep on the ground or on the couch. It all works out good.

KnowsNothing Mar 13, 2006 09:51 PM

The most I've ever done was an all-nighter, and that was when I was like 11 or 12 years old at a sleepover. I was moderatley tired the next day, I think I took a nap for about an hour or so, but it didn't really effect me that much.

I generally try to get as much sleep as possible. Just last Saturday was the first day that I can remember that I actually woke up refreshed. I usually get up around 11 on Saturdays and I'm still groggy- this time I woke up at 6:30 and felt awesome. I'm going to do everything I can to get that feeling again.

Myke Mar 13, 2006 10:43 PM

I fall down when I stand on the second day a lot. If I push it, I'll hallucinate. I've never stayed up more than two days, so I'm not sure about after that.

Moth Mar 13, 2006 10:49 PM

I do this pretty frequently, actually. For me, it's a special occasion to grab a bunch of caffiene... "things," (Fraps, starbucks double shots, actual cups of coffee... whatever I can get my hands on) leave the windows open so it's cold as hell, and blast some vocal trance.

It helps me into an "altered" state that I write in, sometimes. A bit like the beatnicks, except I make more sense.

Kaiten Mar 13, 2006 10:56 PM

I generally become woozy and very unstable when walking. My emotions become exaggerated and anything that feels soft becomes a blanket. I have never stayed up long enough to hallucinate, but I have almost fallen asleep right where I was sitting (or laying as commonly the case).

splur Mar 13, 2006 11:00 PM

Umm, hehe. It depends what type of all-nighter I pull. If it's for school for lets say, a lab or an essay, I go completely braindead. It's like I'm drunk, basically.

When it's an art project or I just played games for the whole night, I can still function but can no longer tell whether or not I'm dreaming cause it constantly feels like I'm dreaming. I also loose all feeling to my body at times.

Borg1982 Mar 13, 2006 11:05 PM

If I stay up through the night and goto class tomorrow, after class i'll be dead and sleep around 4pm for a few hours. After that, waking up and goto bed at a normal time again like 2am.

Eleo Mar 13, 2006 11:17 PM

I've never made it to the hallucination stage; although I am eager to experience hallucination at some point of my life. My personal record is 36 hours, at which point I just start to feel icky with myself and the adrenaline no longer seems to be pumping and the taste of coffee sickens me.

I pulled all-nighters frequently in high school when I neglected to write papers until the night before they were due. Strangely, I got better grades on these papers than papers into which I actually put effort, research, and actual editing. But if I slapped together some random facts and made up a false bibliography by mentioning pages of books I looked up on Amazon.com, boom, instant A.

Maybe sleep deprivation hinders my brain just enough to keep me from thinking too hard.

Rydia Mar 13, 2006 11:24 PM

I've never gone more than 20 hours without sleep. I usually try to get at least a few hours of sleep if my workload is full instead of going all night without any rest.

If I can't sleep at all for any reason, I don't get up to do something. I tend to remain still and wait to finally fall asleep.

WraithTwo Mar 14, 2006 12:31 AM

If I get past the hump of time in which I'm really tired, I get a second wave of energy and will be good to go normally from around hours 24-48. Then its time to get some rest. Also, its wierd, but when I feel really tired, the world kinda closes around me, but I enter a super focused state in which I can do homework or art with more ease than in a more rested state.
