    About 48 hours is my maximum, but chemically strung out. Without that I have had plenty of sleepless nights though, sleeping isn't one of my strong points.

    I really regiment myself so that I minimise excessive 'staying awake'. I force myself to go to bed before 10:30pm on worknights. Even if there is an hour of sleeplessness I am at least comforted in knowing there is no pressure to sleep. Sometimes I just can't drop off though and occasionally it can be a night with the bare minimum of sleep. You feel like shit the next day.

    I would much prefer it if there were more than 24 hours in a day. 30 would be ideal for someone like me.

    My sleeping is terrible. I regulary go 30 hours and have gone over 40 a couple times this year.

    I'm still up from yesterday midday now so 22 hours

    Don't know why, but I have sleep anxiety. I literally cannot stay in bed sometimes, it's torturous for me. That's why I'm usually posting here at all hours.

    Tablets don't help as they can't make me sleep at night, I still lay awake for hours but when I do I then sleep for over 15 hours and wake up in late evening and the cycle carries on.

    I'm just staying up now so that I hopefully fall asleep this evening. Trouble is if I'm once it gets dark I won't sleep tonight either, I somehow stop being tired and can't get into bed.

    The longest for me was well over 50 hours..

    regular exercise in a vigorous way such as jogging 35 minutes a day can really bring the zonking sleep upon you that night. also if you cant exercise I read you can do meditaton for about 40 minutes before sleepng, and if you can sink deep enough into a state where you are not meandering through thoughts but just empty-minded, it is quite healthy and can substitute for a couple hours of sleep.

    I normally have restless nights but the 22 hours staying awake has done wonders this week, slept really well. Will not do the same this week for the fight but will watch the repeat in the evening. probably will do the same for the Margarito v Cotto fight in December.
    Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.

    Same here. I have terrible sleep anxiety.

    The whole need for sleep is just silliness really. Humans would be much better off living for 40 years and never sleeping. Far more efficient. Sleep is just a stop gap and all too much of an effort.

    Who needs sleep anyway, 5 hours a night is plenty.

    I'll sleep when I'm dead!

    You are dead when yoare dead and not a sleep, so no one will be waking you up.

    You are dead when yoare dead and not a sleep, so no one will be waking you up.
    I don't like that Gadaffi was murdered or put in a fridge, but I do like how he is never going to be awoken by all those freaks in dresses taking pictures of him while resting for all eternity.

    I would like to murder each and every one that took a picture of a corpse mind you, fucking perverse weirdo's. "Well, I will stick this picture next to you and little Lucy. Oh and this one is dead Gadaffi.". That's fucked up.
