no rest for the wicked

xD Water torture!

[Gnostic Yevon]

an alarmclock that goes off all the time, like set to every minute ought to do something to keep you awake. Or music. Or infomercials (that would be real torture though)

Good luck to ya.

i hadn't thought about a way to actually force myself to stay awake except for will power.

woohoo lol I'm a insomiac dude and I don't think you can handle the long night hours like many of us insomiacs ca.goodluck though.

[Big D]

Forcing someone to stay awake for long periods is, quite simply, torture. Inflictiong of psychological suffering is torture, it doesn't have to be purely physical. People who say that torture only involves physical infliction of pain don't know what they're talking about.

Most people die after at most... two weeks with no sleep, I think. Fatal exhaustion.

[-N-]

A friend of mine stayed awake for four days without amphetamines. :o I had to drive out to get NyQuil and force it down his throat on the fourth day, because after 72 hours you're legally insane and he was my roommate and I didn't feel like living with an insane dude.

well so far..... not so good.

you hit the wall in the same way your do when you run a marathon. you become really exhasuted but once you get past that everything is fine again. and it goes in cycles like that. when your fine your actually fairly awake.

but this is had and i'm probably gona give up tonight. it does get physically sore in a way.

1time i didnt sleep it sucked =(

[Cloud No.9]

well i managed it throught the night. but had small sleeps at work. i would just feel my eyes closing and it would last just a minute. but i've gave up. the physical exhaustion is immense. tonight i will sleep. next time we are trying starvation.

[Destai]

Well good luck with that.

[Teek]

Yeah, would the phrase, "Hope you starve!" be a good thing or a bad thing at this point?

[Cloud No.9]

it would be bad.

[Teek]

Oh. So, what am I supposed to say? "Good luck!"... with what? Losing, which is winning, or winning therefore losing?

[Cloud No.9]

it's not winning or losing. it's an experiment. tonight is my last day of eating and first day of sleep.
