How Long Have You Gone Without Sleeping?

I have suffered from insomnia since 12 years old. LONGEST I stayed up was 48 hours and it was awful. I am add never medicated thanks mom n dad. Its a side effect.
Ive learned to cope with it. Long work days and working out do wonders.
But now and then?tylenol pm does help.
I cannot fathom insomnia on purpose.

I'm a long long time user, and back about 15 or 20 years ago, when we got Good speed we would go 10 or more days without sleep with no problem... Most I ever did was like 22 days but know people who clam alot more then that... Don't think could do that today but that's because meths not the same...

When I first started getting high I stayed up for almost two weeks. I was seeing shadow ppl and everything was shaking. I tried picking **** out of my tongue. Ugh I fckn hate the **** I did when I was high and I'm glad Im no longer living that way.

The longest I went was 3 days. It went by like hours, but after the night of day 3, I had actually thought I was somewhere else and thought I had been kidnapped. Did I freak out, no. I came too and realized that I what had just happened. It scared me so bad because losing mind control had never happened to me. I cried. Then my boyfriend told me not only did I think I was somewhere else, I also thought he was my brother. I'm the only child.
I cried again.

My boyfriend is the poster child of doing too much, not getting enough sleep and actually believing what his mind was telling him. About a week ago, he waved 2 guns in my face and told me I was trying to kill him. So, needless to say, even though I would just do it socially, every couple of months or so, I dont touch it now and he's gone off the deep end. It's so sad....

Thank you.

I was doing meth when I was 18. I was on it from November 2016, till April 2017. My normal weight before I got strung out was like 145-150lbs. When I finally decided to quit l, I weighed myself & I was 104lbs. I had no eyebrows bc I ripped them all out. Sooo many more crazy things happened when I was strung out but I’m not gonna share them. But anyways, I’m like 99% positive that the longest I stayed up straight for was like 15 days. I swear I was in such a dream like state to where I barely remember what happened the last like 5 days of being up. The 15th day my body just like gave up & I passed out & slept inside of my car in my uncle & aunts yard for like a whole week. I wouldn’t start tripping (hallucinating) until like my 5th or 6th day of no sleep. & I wouldn’t trip too bad bc like I knew nothing was really there, but it still messed my mind up. My bestfriend would be out of it after only like 2 or 3 days without sleep & then he’d start tripping, like craaazy tripping. My now fiancé who was just my boyfriend then would trip after one day without sleep. It just depends on the person. My uncles been doing meth pretty hardcore for well over 20 years, & he like shoots up 5-6 times every day, which has cause holes in his arms the size of like quarters. & the longest he’s ever stayed up for was 14 days. It’s just a really bad drug. I mean, drugs are bad anyways, but meth is soooo terrible for your body. It was just sooo much fun. I literally feel in love with it. I have seen people do some of the most craziest things when I was on it. I just highly recommend everyone to stay away from it. It’ll ruin your life so quick. One moment you think you got it under control & the next minute you’re hallucinating, ripping you’re eyebrows out, & slicing your leg up with razors blades. METH IS NOT WORTH IT. & i swear for some people all it takes is one time to get addicted

8 days back when i first got into it. Honestly terrifying as i though i aas always being chased and ducking behind bushes and it was just bad had to be hospitalized and monitored while i detoxed

I fuckin* hate meth and I have been trying to reply to this thread for over 4 month's......I haven't because the realization that I am extremely lucky to still have a mind that work's after,well a bit over 4 week's one time when I was about 19-20 year's old.I feel like a real asshol* admitting that because well 4 week's without sleep I think you could imagine the sh*t I was going through mentally as far as like LSD never made me hallucinate as bad but at that time in my life I didn't care if I lives or died and though it's a bit over 4 week's anyone who has done over ten day's knows you can be talking and go out for like 45 minutes here and there totally unintended and eye's open like WTF and do more dope and another 3-4 day's passes and the same again,but actually throw in the towel and go to sleep 32 day's.Damn it's embarrassing to admit that.......

You and me both,it is insane..in every sense of the word.Before I came to this site in the very beginning I had almost 1 month sober roughly 10 month's ago and at that time I was just filled with shame and self hate, to think back on thing's like 32 day's was killing me just as much as the drug's themselves. I don't care who you are or how long you have been using, when you go that long without sleep it's completely impossible to say your actions and thoughts are truly yours,by that point your mind is literally gone.I have never been a person (prior to getting sober)who ever thought twice about my previous actions,then I got sober,gave up meth,alcohol, opiates,barbiturates all at once and thought I was mentally gone for good,I literally cried the first 3 month's of my sobriety because I didn't know if I would ever mentally recover,and by the grace of God about 100 day's in my mind started to get back to normal or at least I think so and to be 100% honest it's still recovering as I have moments where I feel mentally exhausted but I think that's normal, however as time goes on even still at this point I feel my mind heal.I am truly blessed to be alive and have a chance at normality.....whatever that means lol.

7 days 4hrs of sleep. was the 1st week of using. crazy ****

I started hearing and seeing shadow people on day 4. I wouldn't call it insanity..insanity was when I chose to do it. now feeling stuck. the longer i go the easier it is to eat n sleep..but harder to come off..that's when I'll go crazy
