Thread: Going to stay up for 2-3 days.

Yeah, thats what I meant by ghosts, i think it's 30 something hours before most people start hearing things and 72 before they start seeing things but it varies.

Very curious as to what sort of hallucinations people have seen.

Well after staying up for 2 days I had a shoadowy figure in my peripheral vision which was actually a lamp and a cupboard thing, but when I wasn't looking straight at it it was one of my mates wearing a hoody just standing there. Then on the 3rd day I constantly had this hallucination (not just visual distortion (misinterpreting the lamp and cupboard) still in my peripheral vision but getting closer to the center of my vision by then. It was a girl wearing a red dress on steps. Really weird. It was like a whole scene but I couldn't see it fully, if that makes sense, coz if I looked directly at it it would go away, but was still there in a way. It's really hard to describe, has to be experienced. Also had other visual and auditory hallucinations. Like sitting on the couch there was friends sitting beside me commenting on the movie I was watching and family coming up behind me, leaning on the back of the couch and saying stuff quietly in my ear but I can't remember what they said. I had to keep looking every now and again to make sure it wasn't actually someone there. But most of the time I just assumed it was just hallucinations.

I slept for like a whole day once I finally decided to sleep lol. Couldn't handle it anymore coz I was just hearing and seeing shit everywhere and couldn't focus on anything.

Thanks for sharing that. I think I'll give it a go this summer just for the experience.

I screwed up and slept a long time ago.

I was guessing. Start it again man! We all want you to do this lol.

Yes, please temporarily turn insane and ruin your body for our amusement.

wow, full on hallucinations by the third day? All I got was a few flashing spots in my vision, a strange mood and microsleeps.

Anyone managed to sleep only 8 hours after this? I think when I go to sleep I will do it for an a entire day, even if I turn the 2 alarms on.

I don't think anyone would be able to only sleep for the normal time after sleep dep. Unless they put an air raid siren on in their bedroom to wake them up.

Coincidentally I've just gone a night without sleep to get back on sleep schedule and I almost fell asleep sitting up lol. Felt my whole body sink like I was a millisecond away from sleep but woke myself up. I'm gonna sleep now and hope I get up tomorrow morning and not later tonight lol

Report if I get REM rebound or not.

This.
Except without sarcasm lol.
It doesn't turn you insane or ruin your body. Unless you do it repeatedly.

Because seeing hallucinations is not just a tad mental and I meant in the short term, hence temporarily.

I did it only for 40 hours. I slept about 30 min without wanting to, and after that all things turned to be very boring and not worth to being awake more. The good thing is that I was wanting to sleep always on my back to be better at WILDs and it was not hard to do it in this state.

Does anybody know if this is true?

its not true since you still did the crime. And if you dont belive me i am in a Criminal Justice class.

There's a example of it on film "One Flew over the Cuckoo's Nest". You just go to a different prison if you declare yourself insane.

edit: btw Leviatahon, how can you be in a Criminal Justice class if you are sixteen ? o.o

Awakening, here you can take college courses your junior year. I know some sophomores who do as well. We get bused from the school to the community college, classes are free, lunch is early.

What state do you live in? At my school our senior year, we can go to a community college, but we have to pay for it.
