    A record so dangerous that Guinness World Records no longer actively monitor it.
    The longest recorded period for which a person has voluntarily deprived themselves of sleep achieved by Randy Gardner (USA) in San Diego, California, USA, between 6 a.m. on 28 December 1963 and 6.01 a.m. on 8 January 1964.
    In one of the best researched cases of voluntary sleeplessness, Gardner was studied by the US Navy Medical Neuropsychiatric Research Unit in San Diego and later the Stanford University School of Medicine in California.

    I was working a weird shift during the millennium from 1999 into 2000 and woke up at 11:58 and spur of the moment decided I was going to be the last person to fall asleep in 2000. I lasted less than 105 hours before my mind started going absolutely crazy and everything felt disconnected and dreamlike for several hours before I finally caved and slept 17 hours. 11+ days is unbelievable. 100% do not recommend anyone trying to break this record.

      I used to suffer from insomnia. Also addicted to benzodiazepines (Xanax, Klonopin) for years. I never really got REM sleep taking Benzos. The worst was when I ran out of pills which was all the time. I would literally go days almost a week without any sleep when I was in withdrawal. Not being able to sleep is why it took me 15 years to get off all the pills. Every time I tried the lack of sleep tortured me. I’ve been sober for over a year and a half and I have zero problems sleeping now. Every night is like heaven. 🙏

    "You never see it coming" is actually an incredibly sincere observation that is true of your direct experience. You don't see anything coming no matter how much fantasizing, planning, supervising, analyzing, or whatsoever you do. It will be what it will be and what is never matches with what we imagine. But we are imagining twice over. Imagining that we are an imaginer or not an imaginer, and yet everything we imagine to be our individual separate personality is entirely constructed of images appearing in our imagination primarily concepts and a very persistent I-thought that falsely claims to be you and if you believe it then you will ignore the truth of who you are, the background which all images appear but is not an image itself.

    My first impression was a very strong one,’ repeated  the prince. ‘When they took me away from Russia, I  remember I passed through many German towns and  looked out of the windows, but did not trouble so much  as to ask questions about them. This was after a long series  of fits. I always used to fall into a sort of torpid condition  after such a series, and lost my memory almost entirely;  and though I was not altogether without reason at such  times, yet I had no logical power of thought. This would  continue for three or four days, and then I would recover  myself again. I remember my melancholy was intolerable;  I felt inclined to cry; I sat and wondered and wondered  uncomfortably; the consciousness that everything was  strange weighed terribly upon me; I could understand that  it was all foreign and strange. I recollect I awoke from this  state for the first time at Basle, one evening; the bray of sleep aroused me, a donkey in the town market. I saw  the sleep and was extremely pleased with it, and from  that moment my head seemed to clear.’  ‘Sleep? How strange! Yet it is not strange. Anyone  of us might fall in love with sleep! It happened in mythological times,’ said Madame Epanchin, looking  wrathfully at her daughters, who had begun to laugh. ‘Go  on, prince.’  ‘Since that evening I have been specially fond of sleep. I began to ask questions about them, for I had  never seen one before; and I at once came to the  conclusion that this must be one of the most useful of  animals-strong, willing, patient, cheap; and, thanks to  this sleep, I began to like the whole country I was  travelling through; and my melancholy passed away.’

You end up feeling super burnt out, hallucinations and psychosis kicks in. I don't know how anybody could get behind the wheel of a car with having lost that much sleep without getting into an accident.
    And another frightening thing was when I finally fell asleep each of the times, I was waking up every other hour having what felt like seizures. It was a very unpleasant experience.

    I was living abroad once and had an operation on my bladder. Whilst on my medical notes it stated pain free, it wasn't. It was very uncomfortable sitting on laying down. I didn't sleep for weeks spending my nights in the toilet with water and cigarettes. My body certainly physically deteriorated with my feet swelling up so i could not get my shoes on. The hospital prescribed diuretics but that didnt help. I could say I hallucinated but not in the way it sounds. I got an appointment with a GP who wasnt happy when i finally arrived but i wasn't quite as soft as usual so on failing to get rid of me or prescribing junk otc painkillers he prescribed tramadol which was a life saver at the time.

    I have this beat. I literally did 12 days straight after getting an injection of Vivitrol. It's a drug that's designed to help drug addicts stay clean from opiates. It's a monthly injection. However, I was the only patient to this day who had this reaction. Ftom the moment I hot the injection, I became so amped up that my heart was beating faster than I had ever felt even when I was on meth. I laid in my stepson bed for 12 straight days tossing and turning and by the 12th day I was having hallucinations and had to be taken to the hospital where they treated me like a drug addict seeking drugs, locking me in their padded walled room. This was all under a research program and I ended up being let out of one hospital and then drove myself to another where the program took place and checked myself in. They said they couldn't find any sign of any irregularities, but 4 years later, my legs are dying, and I'm having many complications.

    Dan saya mau tidur ada rasa sangat khawatir klo aku tidak bisa bangun lagi alias meninggal krn badan sudah terasa sangat aneh seperti demam + sedikit halusinasi.
    Akhirnya aku paksakan diri minum air putih banyak trus pasang alarm setiap 5 jam tertidur supaya aku bisa bangun, akhirnya aku bisa tidur per 5 jam & bangun utk ketoilet sekitar 15-30 menit lalu tidur lagi & alarm 5 jam lagi, sampe dengan total durasi tidurku 30 jam.
    Serius guys, tidak tidur dlm waktu lama itu bahaya, jgn pernah Coba hal ini.
