Been awake for 33 hours straight...

By staying awake that long, you're actually hurting your chances of doing well on your exams. Staying awake for long periods of time affects your cognitive abilities and your memory. Just thought you should know...
 
33 hours, am i supposed to be impressed?

Hit the 5 day mark sometime. Hear crazy shit, trip all day, see the shadow people. DO IT you wont
 
alexi laiho (guitar/frontman for crazy drunken finnish metal band children of bodom) said one time he decided to take a break from drinking, and it cause him to not be able to sleep for 6 days.
so for next time, become an extremely heavy drinker, but not alcoholic, and then stop drinking for your exams.
 
yea iv never made it past 2 nights, i do my school work at night because i have no motivation and get easily distracted.
 
my buddy was awake for 70 hours before going to sleep last week during finals. i honestly thought he was going to die any minute. he said he wasnt even hallucinating though which surprised me because i stayed up for like 60ish and i was on a different planet by the time i went to sleep.
 
well there is allways a point where is becomes unhealthy and 70 hours is it haha. i was falling alseep in class and i was like half dreaming and i was seeing stuff. at one point i started pointing to my left before i caught myself.
 
Word. Idk man. By 3-4 full days i was a zombie. Fell asleep on day 5-6 for a little bit. Just a couple hours but i had been fucking terrified that i wasn't going to sleep again.

Then the next day I said fuck it and drove down to philly and hopped on tour. Driving through different states early morning on no sleep. Laying in my car here and there trying to get some sort of "rest"

i think if you hit the 10 day mark with 0 sleep it starts to get really sketch.

I went a couple weeks after that but i was getting like 2 hours of sleep almost every night at that point. Enough to keep my brain from shutting down.
 
Idk. I couldn't figure it out.

Started with one day where i didn't sleep and i was like oh well whatever im gonna sleep good tonight cause im beat. Then i didn't sleep again, and had to work at 8 am an hour + away. Worked at the mountain all day soooo beat. Drove home that evening scared i was gonna fall asleep driving, even though im real good about driving. But i payed attention, and didn't even have anything like microsleeps, just didn't at all.

Then by the next day i was just fucking zombie mode
 
just woke up from a 4 hour nap, Just thought you should know I made a 106 on my analytical physics 2 exam. But yea by the time i took my programming languages my brain was fried. Still did better than if i hadn't stayed up studying.

33 hours is the longest I've ever stayed up continuously and i was already starting to feel a strange euphoric/horribly shitty sensation. I can't imagine staying up any longer than 2 days.
 
I pulled 50 coming back from France. Was at 49 and was going to bed but had to get 50 haha
 
I WAS BANGING MY FRIENDS LITTLE SISTER WHO WAS VERY YOUNG JUST LIKE YOU LIKE AND IT WAS FUN, DONT YOU HAVE FUN WITH LITTLE SISTER WHO ARE VERY YOUNG?
 
.

you're fucking yourself over by not giving your brain time to process the information you're taking in. if you study a little less and sleep 9 hours a night you'll retain more than if you study everything and don't sleep at all
 
Dude. Don't stay up that much. I used to study a bunch when I was still in HS and it started my trend of insomnia. I haven't sleep more than 4 hours in one night/day for maybe a year and a half.
 
my brother does that on a regular basis. he works night shifts during the week and days on the weekend. makes for an awfully shitty friday/saturday and sunday/monday, when the two overlap and he works some 18 hours in a 24 hour period, staggered just enough so that he can't have any time to go to bed in between. shit's nasty. but he gets fuckin paaaiiidddd like a mofo to do that.
 
in addition to not sleeping being a bad thing, cram sessions aren't how you learn. repetition is. just finished 3 units of neuroscience, and I'll have to be taking neuroscience 1 and 2 classes eventually. so trust me on this one.
 
I stayed up 40 straight hours last week to finish my final paper for a class. Ended up getting an A on it
