    How much time you could don't sleep? 16 hours? 20 hours? 24 hours?

    For me it was 35 hours, yesterday. I woke up 3:00 pm in Saturday and logged in Pok?Community, then I was reading articles in Serebii.net, searching for Pok?mon info and posting here and just stopped 12:00 pm of Sunday. (GMT -3)

    Yeah, I've had a few sleepless nights in a row, partly cos I actually do suffer from insomnia. It's a not so fun way to live, but you get used to it.
     
    I can't not sleep for even one night. I just really need my sleep to keep going.
     
    The worst I?ve ever had was being kept up all night for one night. Some sort of Brown Recluse threat here in Kansas, it was shown on the news. That night I didn?t sleep at all?I kept checking the corners of my room with a flashlight. ;_;
     
    I've had insomnia for a loooong time. I used to go to bed at ten, and not go to sleep till two. X_x; Now its stopped of course.

    Causes of insomnia:
    Overly worrying of a situation
    Excited
    Overdose of caffeine or drugs
    Drug or alcohol addiction

    *dies*
     
    We have brown recluses around here too, Kairi, but luckily we've never had an epidemic of them <_<;;

    My record's not too impressive, 21 hours. I could do way more, but I've never really felt the need to pull an all-nighter. I've tried before with a friend but after playing my gamecube into the wee hours of the morning I couldn't take it anymore...another time I rented some old karate movie and princess mononoke but fell asleep because the karate movie was so boring, I didn't even get around to the good stuff -_-;;
     
    I don?t really count insomnia as staying up late. I?ve stayed up around two days in a row. I could have gone to sleep, but didn?t. Now the aforementioned time I just?couldn?t sleep. o_o;
     
    I usually always fall asleep really quickly. I've never had insomnia before. The lastest that I've ever stayed up was probably 4:00 AM, because it was summer, and I was busy playing Harvest Moon 64, lol. ^_^; That game is addicting.

    Anyways, it's wierd, but... I normally wake up earlier when I go to bed late. Like this morning, I woke up at 5:30 AM wide-awake, but I went to bed last night at like 11:00. o_o *sweatdrop*
     
    I think I stayed up all night once, when I was around 6, but I can't quite remember...
    Though that might be because I fell asleep, hehe.

    The only real times I have insomnia is when I'm trying to break out of an old sleeping schedule, which is my own doing anyway. Since school is starting soon, I'm going to have to start going to bed earlier, making it harder to fall asleep. Oh well, I deserve it, hehe.
     
    The most I have gone for without sleep is like 75-90 hours.
    It was when I moved to my new house and my parents went up north to visit my Aunt and Uncle for one week.

    They left me incharge of the house, and I also had to take care of my kid sister. Within 4 days my air conditioner broke, so I called my Parents cell phones, and they didn't pick up.

    Then about two weeks passed by since the AC breaking, and thats when the sleeplessness began. I was getting worried, and I couldn't sleep because my house was too hot, some nights the temp was in the 90s. And on top of that, my little sister would never stop crying!

    Then about 3 weeks after, with no phone calls back, I began to get really stressed. I was going to ask my uncle for help, but I didn't know what his phonenumber was. This was when my bad sleeplessness started.

    And during that week, I went around 75-90 hours without one minute of sleep. Then I think that I passed out, because I had awakened two days later with my little sister spraying water in my face.
     
    even when I have school the next day, I always seem to stay up late. :< I procrastinate for hours until it's about... 12 or 1 AM... and then I finally start on the hours of homework I have. I usually finish somewhere from 3-4 and finally go to bed, only to wake up at 6 AM for school. o_o;; don't do this, kids~!! you're too young to die :p

    but as soon as I get home from school I usually pass out for a nap, so...

    but then during the summer I've just been going to bed really late/early because I'm bored and stay up talking to people online. bleh.
