Anyone have any tips on how to do this? Everytime I try I end up falling alseep, or just feeling shitty the whole day.

Sleep a long time the day before and then start the day with a big breakfast and then eat a good sized lunch, then a really late dinner with lots of caffeine. Sugar + Caffeine = Awake for the most part.

That and keeping the mind constantly occupied and enthralled. I stayed up all night one night reading Angels & Demons cause I was so interested in seeing what happened next I just couldn't set it down. That and MMORPGs like WoW have kept me up pretty late into the night. Lately though I've set my mind to being able to work off 4 hours of sleep. Nyuk nyuk.

Lol. During summer I'd spend 18+ hours a day on RO and didn't sleep for 24 hours twice cause we were MvPing so much

i guess there were two times i did that, one when I was watching anime and forgot the time...
(I was shocked that there was already natural light in the room...)

And when I attended the Provincial Youth Conference(It's a Christian thing...)

The trick for this is to get a lot of rest before you go on yer "journey" and yes, a buttload of caffeniated anything helps a lot too.

try having a spoonful of plain sugar, nothing else, whenever you're about to fall asleep... it SHOULD work!

Lol.

But yah. This one is pretty hard. I've done it a few times. I couldn't get past the 30 hour mark though. Every time I stay up past 1:00am I feel a bit tired, stay up past 3:30, feel sorta crappy. Stay up past 6:00 feel crappy. Stay up past 10:00, feel extremely horrible.

I think you can't deny your body what it needs. There is a difference between want and need, it can be distinguished between being tired or being exhausted. MMOs don't help the psychy when it comes to this.

As for sugar, never worked for me. As for caffeine, if you do that too often drinking energy drinks etc with high caffeine. You can get heart puppltations, which feels like your heart is beating un rythmically and I'm not sure but eventually can cause damage to your heart...

Heh... I tried to stay up as long as I could during the opening of Iris. I got to about 17 hours before I had to quit and go to bed.

I'm not gonna do something like that ever again. >.>

drink coffee or an espresso! or just eat something with lots and lots of sugar. chocolates, candies, gummi bears, etc..etc.. anything with sugar. or try watching a really really scary movie. the ones that really scares the sh*t out of you. (shutter,ju-on,sixth sense, amityville house,etc.)

on second thought....don't watch scary movies...unless you want to be paranoid through the whole night. lol

Dynewind 20 years 2 months ago wrote:

nope doesnt work for me!!
when i drink coffe, even expresso, i became sleppy....
hehe the opposite of normal guys...
but when i read a book, for example, just borrowed
12 manga from library <new> i would be up till i dont know when
and i only stop when i cant stand my eyes anymore....
after about 3 hours of reading my eyes burning....
and 5 hours.... it's like you cried for 10 hours
hehe
so i'm wake when my eyes wake...
that's why i dont like wearing glasses.. ( TT _ TT )
well,,,, the reason i got it also from anime and manga though !!

Hmm this isn't really as tough as you may think.Staying up that is.First of all as posted before you need to be well rested.Eat a big breakfast lunch and DO NOT EAT A BIG DINNER LATE!from experience this is one of the worst things you can do because once you are fool you feel relaxed and that leads to falling asleep.Well sugars and cafein do help i would not recomend you take trunk loads at a time.Main reason besides its bad for you health is it will pick you up and give you energy yeah but about an hour later your more tired than you started off.so take them in modertation like when you start dozing of or your eyelids feel heavy.But!The most inmportan thing is when you are starting to get tired or sleepy just get up stretch and open a window or something.This will refresh you completely well atleast it does for me.Also excersising helps like you know do a few push up etc.Dont do to many tho...Well thats about all i got to say hope this helps.

Our bodies need sleep... even if it's a little or a lot. But remember, too much will make you more tired, or as I have noticed

Can't really feel the effect of sleeping long, I'm kinda lazy... then again I lack sleep sometimes so that also counts why i slepp more than 11 hours...

LOL. this topic made me remember the fate my friend had... he drank beer and coffee and stayed up for three days with it... then he fell asleep for two days...LOL imagine that...
