What is the longest length of tiime that you've gone without sleep?

you can-i was awake almost 5 days myself. i had a migraine that would not break and ultimetly i had to be put out to finally go to sleep. i was starting to hallucinate at that point though.it wasn't fun.

Yeah I remember I heard something about someone who didn't sleep for a long time. I think it was in the Guinness Book of World Records. As for me I think it hard for me not to sleep more than a day. The last time I remember was we had a hangout with my friends. The night before I didn't sleep from 5pm to 3pm. Then I slept at 3pm and woke up at 4:30pm to go out with friends. We had night out that ended up 'till morning. I slept at 12 pm. Surely, I can't sleep though I feel like sleeping that time, we just keep on talking and having fun! And talk, talk, and saying some jokes and then drinking coffee at morning. When it comes to works in school or projects, it helps if I listen to music, eat and drink something, and especially staying away from so much tempting bed. lol

Hi, justdroppingby. The longest that I can go without sleeping is about 8 to 10 hours. That is past my bedtime hours. I can not go as long as 3 days or so. My body will not let me do this.. No matter how bad I would want to stay up, I could not.. I wonder how can someone stay up 5 days straight?? What kind of body do they have???

The longest I have gone without sleep is about 32 hours. Sometimes we drive all night from San Antonio, TX to Chicago, IL. It takes us about 22 hours of driving time total. I am unable to fall asleep on car rides, so I stay up the whole time. Then, we usually meet with family all day when we get there. So, I am not able to sleep for another 10 hours or so. It is not fun, but it saves us money on hotel rooms.

I think that is 24 hours, my friend. As doing my online jobs I kept on posting on the net to reach payment that is why sometimes I have an overtime doing something on the net...Have a nice day!!!

I have been without sleep 3 days, when I was in graduate school, same thing projects that would have me awake for days, then after that I would sleep for a whole day, but that is something that can be dangerous, because you can get used to the pattern and have problems to fall asleep in the future, which was what happened to me, at one point I couldn't fall asleep, and I would spend days with insomnia. But with the time I was able to sleep better.

A week o_o It's REALLY bad for you to stay up that long, by the way. REALLY BAD. I was hallucinating by the end of that week..and I slept for a day and a half afterward...and went right back to my insomniac habits. I have REALLY good willpower. And I'm stubborn as heck. Plus, I was under alot of stress and was going through a bad depression at the time. So it was easier then than it would be for me now.

I think I've stayed up for about 48 hrs before. I don't rememeber why. A while ago I stayed up for nearly 2 days to do a uni assignment. I drank heaps and heaps of coffee. I was like a zombie at the end of it. Then the bad thing was that I couldn't get to sleep afterwards because of all the caffeine I'd had! It's not good for you but sometimes it happens.

In graduate school I went five days and four nights, in other words I finally went to bed at the end of the fifth day. I was doing an experiment that had to have adjustments made and a data point taken every four hours so there was just not enough time to try to get some sleep. I did manage to eat and to shower each day. The experiment was over on the fifth day and I had a date with a new girl and we went to a movie that she had picked out. It was a very long and boring movie. She fell asleep during the movie while I did not even though I had been without sleep heading into a fifth night.

The most I ever went without sleep is about 4 days I suffer from insomnia all I really need is 2-4 hours of sleep a day once I wake up I'm up for the day.

I think it's about 24-26 hours. I don't feel comfortable after that (dizzy, a bit like hangover)and almost fainted (no joke). After I finished my work, i went to bed for 18 hours straight... Cheers.

I've gone two days. I had to undergo some tests and they required I stress my brain so I had to stay up for two days streight. I'm a night owl by nature so staying awake wasn't that difficult. A couple of snacks helped. I don't know how I stayed sane. I guess being able to stay up late and watch t.v. knowing I couldn't get grounded for it. Going to talk to my mom... Just little things that helped. What sucked, I had to go to school the day before to really stress me out. I was not happy.

I had been without sleep for more than two days.....................

The longest for me is about 48 hours... Or may be fainted Lol...I can stand without any food intake just plain water in 48 hours but i cannot stay 48 hours awake or else my migraine will attack me that horribly. Happy Lotting..God bless!

The longest I have gone without sleep is 28 hours? I stayed up to see Sarah Marry Prince Andrew in 1986. Then after the wedding I went sight seeing. When I added it up I had been up 28 hours.I also stayed up to say goodbye to Diana. But I think that time it was only 24.

I think it's 38hours or something. I can't really remember how much it was in detail but I think it was last year and I can remember I got very tired after 30hours but then again I was quite awake for another hmm 7hours..but then I was drunk so I don't really remember anymore when we went to bed because I didn't look at the clock anymore. What kept me awake was probably fun. If you are bored you won't make it at all to stay awake so I think the key to stay awake ist just being busy with something funny or you need just friends around you which keep you awake.

The longest I think would be 36 hours. We were preparing for an art exhibit. There were really a lot of things that got delayed so we had to rush everything. We still have to fix the platform, the lights, the murals, the paintings and to top it off the performers were considering on backing out. We had to find replacements in case they really decided not to perform. The funny thing was, on the day of the opening of the exhibit itself, a lot of us were not able to go to the exhibit because we really had to sleep.

I was on a Costa Cruise ship with my father (he worked there) and i was very bored since im not social at all and i do not like going out.. so i slept in the cabin for 4 days... he was bringin me food and stuff because i wasnt likely to go out.
