I CAN'T SLEEP! (I win, 62 hours)

[super-smashman]

As I pointed out to Gamepro: if i woke my parents up they would visect me :/

It's like 1:12am now so I don't think bath is going to happen.

I stayed up for 4 ½ days once.

Then I fell asleep. So, just stay up for as long as possible, and you'll faint by yourself after a while.

K, so only 2 and a half days to go before I can sleep again XD

[jewpinthethird]

Ha, reading this thread made me sleepy.

Drink warm milk...

Or bleed yourself.

what I always do is lay in bed with all but a lamp off, and just watch TV. that always helps me fall asleep. most TVs have that thing where you can make it turn off after a specific time... I just set mine for 3 hours. I usually fall asleep by then.

[edit] and do stuff in the day that would exhaust you, like play ddr, or go for a long run/walk.

[edit2] make yourself dizzy, spin around or sit/lay and hold your breath and then stand up quickly, that always helps me too.

Yeah, I've just been watching South Park for the last... Wow, 4 hours.

Almost time to get ready for school...

Whenever I can't fall asleep I always concentrate on trying to make my muscles relax. a: It feels cool, b: it works. Since one of those first stages of sleep are muscle relaxation, I make my body tired by relaxing my muscles. If you concentrate on it long enough (ex. trying to relax your foot, then your legs, then your arms), you'll fall asleep. Well at least I do.

[super-smashman]

OMG I'm starting to feel tired.

Too bad now I have to goto school...

[Dimitri13]

Wow. I didnt sleep all night lol, I stayed up in bed playing monopoly on my phone until like 4, then I got up and washed my clothes.

Sup 52 hours...

You sleep soon. Make it dark in your room. With only two sources of light far away from you. Only the size of a candle or christmas tree light. Soon, you will be alseep. It'll work. It'll work.....

[super-smashman]

God damn it.

Today sucked. I was a bit late getting out of my house so I had to run pretty much the whole way to school (it's normally a 20 minute walk). I could barely stand during the anthem and I pretty much spaced right out the rest of the day. In physics (last period) I nearly passed out.

I've been trying to sleep since I got home at 3 and its still no good.

This feels like a horribly looooong day that just doesn't want to end.

PS: 56 hours now.

[PsYcHoZeRoSk8eR]

YOU CAN DO IT! You are over halfway to 4 days now. Drink some energy drinks or something, see just how long that you can stay up.

[JurseyRider734]

If you stay up for 72 hours+ you're considered an insomniac. If you murder someone you can get away with it because you're suffering from insomnia.


Do the muscle relaxation thing.

Omg that is so awesome! I mean, not that I would ever kill someone...

Hence be why you should try my idea. Most likely it wil help more if you take an extremely hot shower. I know this idea seems whack, but it works. Trust me, as imature and retarted as I act, no matter how incoherent I type or how wrong I spell, this shall work. If you take a hot, very hot shower, leave any bathroom fan off that sucks up steam. Steam is good for the lungs, it clears them out. When you get out of the shower you will know that it worked if you can stand there and feel no change in temperature(meaning you don't feel a chill from no hot water) without a towel to cover you. Now, your bathroom should be full of steam(Note: The hot shower is important because you must be warm.). Breath in the steam with full out breaths. Breeeeeeaaaaaaaaaaaattttthh iiiiiiiiinnnnnnn, breeeeeeeeeeeaaaaaaaathhh ouuuuuuutttt. In, hold, out.

Now go and drink something very warm. (Hot chocolate, recomended.). Drink it and you will feel relaxed. Think nothing of work, no play either. Think of nothing. Clear your mind completly from anything that relaxes you. Don't try and move so fast. Take time by the minute. Relax. Now go into your room after about a half an hour of relaxing without care. Relax.

Make the room pitch black, except for two sources of small light. Candles work. Keep them on the opposite side of the room as you. NOTE: THIS PART IS OPTIONAL. IT MERELY GIVES YOU A PEACEFUL FEELING AS WELL AS COMS YOUR NERVES. THIS IS THE SLEEPING SHORTCUT. Now just think of the things you care about and like. Like a girl, or an event. Or your friends. DON'T THINK OF FOOD. Don't think anything of FFR. That will make you want to post. Then you'll be awake. Simply think only of things that you are interested in, like hobbys. Soon, you shall fall asleep. An hour tops. I know this works. Always does. For all my friends that don't like sleeping. Or those who just can't. SO try this. What do you have to lose? It's a lot more relaxing and enjoyable than collapsing from exhaustion. Well, sleep tight.

*Jurs your idea is all in your head. It's not an insult, but I have tried it and saw it work more mentally, than physically. I did not feel more relaxed, I fooled myself thinking I was more relaxed. I don't think it's possible to relax your own muscle just by trying to make it relax. If it is, tell me because I am missing out on something a lot more faster.

Other than that try my idea. Or don't. Collapse from exhaustion for all I care. It's just a lot more stupid than what I suggested. My idea has always worked.

You're making me want to stay up for a really long time. Stop it.

[JurseyRider734]

LightKnight: If you try to relax your muscles, they will relax. rofl

[Lightknight924]

How though? Besides letting go of any tension how? Masoche(Spelled correctly?) them? How? My way my way doesn't require any or your tricksy relaxing.

Tricksy Jurs. Tricks R Fore Kidz.

[super-smashman]

I think you meant massage...

You can get your muscles to relax, the hard part is keeing them that way long enough to fall asleep.
