It was about 6 days. It was during college and I was at the peak of a manic episode fueled by alcohol, nicotine, and caffeine. I worked nights on the weekends and went from the beginning of my Sunday night shift through my Friday night shift. I went to my classes during the day, hopped from one party to the next at night until everyone else passed out, then just drove through all of the back country roads we have while everyone else was asleep. In the first couple of days I had auditory hallucinations and 3-4 days in there were shadow people. By the end of the week it was hard to tell if I was awake or dreaming. Surprisingly when I finally slept it was only for like 13 hours and I made it back in for my Saturday night shift.

I think it was about 28h when my first child way born.

Usual day, up at 6am, normal day. Then wife stated around 10pm ‘alright, we need to go to the hospital’. Few hours later at around 6am child was born. The aftermath and heading home took a few hours as well and finally got some rest at 10am.

The funny thing is I did not sleep that much then. I think about 4 hours and was good to go.

Oh yeah, and my wife was probably also happy to get some rest lol.

3 days during last summer. It was before I got my summer job and after school ended.

It wasn’t for any particular reason I just didn’t wanna go to sleep and just stayed on my phone 🤷‍♀️

Roughly 37 hours. I went from a party to shopping with friends to a wedding. It was wild and it shows the power of alcohol and drugs ❤️

Probably wouldn’t survive it today, tho.
