I couldn't sleep two nights ago because I was in pain. Yesterday I worked all night long (which is something I do quite often, but usually I then go to sleep in the morning and get at least 8 hours of rest, but I didn't this time). Last night I was out with my friends, I danced all night long and drank alcohol, came home seven hours ago (at 6 in the morning) and continued working and I still do.

My vision is slightly blurred and I'm starting to feel some kind of numbness in my hands, but my mind works perfectly well, I'm still full of ideas and inspiration and I can do my work just fine. Basically I don't feel like sleeping at all.

What is this shit? Is something wrong with me? I don't think I've ever gone that long without sleeping and especially with working 80% of the time and going out dancing all night long in that time (something that should be quite exhausting, shouldn't it?).

I know that I could fall asleep if I wanted to right now, so this is not insomnia or something. But I just don't feel like sleeping at all. How come?

i went through that about 18 months ago!!! on average i would sleep 2 hours a night or sometimes none at all

i had massive issues and stress related problems and so many decisions to make

but now that things have settled and the one major problem in my life is gone i am ok!!!

anyway u might be under a lot of pressure, and it could be pressure u put on yourself...

u just need to walk away, close the door, have a nice warm shower and go sleep ~ it will do u the world of good

its just after 10pm and i'm sleepy ~ so i'm going

nite

What kind of work do you do?

I can't imagine staying up all night and than go to work.

I went through 3 days straight without sleeping when I hit rock bottom last year.

I wasn't "sleepy" but I wasn't functioning properly. Not eating or wanting to do anything. Maybe if I had something to distract me I would've been up & about. But I can't imagine that (especially at my damned age).

Dude...don't push it if you don't have to. Make an effort to get some shuteye. The body NEEDS it to recover, heal, grow.

Take a break, find a quiet place, and allow nature to take its course.

Got three hours of sleep and I'm up again! My body feels weird

I know I'm under pressure, but I don't think it really affects me, as I'm kinda used to it. I don't feel mentally exhausted at all! Don't know whether it's my subconsciousness playing tricks on me or what, but I really don't think so...

Not the ordinary kind of work - I make music. Study songs for different bands, play, rehearse, record songs for others while I'm recording my own album at the moment etc. That's what I consider "work" right now and it is tough, believe it or not...

I thought that Asian stalker is keeping him occupied for now

On the other hand, we must admit, Dan's penis is so huge that whenever he decides to uncover it even Arnold Schwarzenegger would get all weak & vulnerable...

Dude...uhm...seriously, you need some sleep.

get some sleep.

My penis is indeed massive, but yours I'm told affects the tide.

My guess is you're enjoying pushing yourself. You said yourself you could sleep wt any time, so right now you're experimenting with not sticking to a normal pattern.

And you're at the top of that food chain.

Is this what they call a circle jerk?

Damn! If I don't get at least 7 hours of sleep, my brain is a complete mush! I can't even imagine going 70 hours without sleeping!!!!

This may be because of my fear for social submission and the ever-stable rules that come with it. Whenever I go to sleep (for the past year or so, maybe even longer), I have a slight feeling of regret and remorse, as if I was missing out on something, as if I turned my back on my own freedom to experience life, as if I needed a couple of more hours of thinking and moving to reach a peaceful state of mind and finish the current process of understanding what the hell I am actually doing in this world.

Sometimes I even get on my woman's nerves when she wants to go to bed and sleep and I am trying to urge her to stay awake with me and go for a walk at night, watch a movie, drive into another country, listen to music or talk about god. I don't always need to work or do something extremely fruitful when I'm awake at night, I just want to have control of my own sampling the pleasures of life while being conscious.

I've always had a weird pattern when it comes to sleep, staying awake for long hours but staying in bed til noon. But right now I seem to have taken it a step further and try to skip sleep altogether. Even if I know that I should get proper sleep, I couldn't persuade myself to really do it.

This is really, really curious and even a bit frightening. Usually I can calculate my thoughts and feelings quite objectively, but this time I have absolutely no idea which psychological process is forcing me to stay awake.

You are such a Prince-wannabee.

Its both hilarious & nauseating all at the same time.

I've been relatively tolerant so far, but ... who the fuck are you and who the fuck do you think you are?

My guess is you're an old, ugly, miserable cunt who hasn't had her ugly fanny eaten for five years (coincidentally since the day all your ten cats ran away) and who spends her time trying to irritate other people, in the hope of one day having more company at the bottom end of life, but I might be wrong of course.

And, by the way, not every musician on the org is automatically a "Prince-wannabee" But I guess only people with a higher IQ than -30 would know that...

And one more thing: stop trying to spread your miserable, sheepish, dull hate of yourself amongst other people, trying to make them responsible for your own low self-esteem - it won't make you any happier. I've seen you do this on other threads to other people too and you're just really a boring old square.

So, please, do us a favour and piss off and get some proper medicine (and new cats - you seem to need them).

I once worked for 40 hours straight, but that was real work - no breaks for dancing, drinks, etc. And it wasn't something I wanted to do, it was something I had to do.

But that was when I was young. No way I could go 40 hours now.

Try not to wear yourself out. It'll take a week to recover.

Wow.. I don't think I could even push myself to do something I don't want to do for longer than three or four hours (even though getting paid in return might be something I'd want to happen)!

This mornong, seven o'clock, I reached my absolut limit. I couldn't stand straight and I couldn't hold a glass anymore. I sat down on my bed and wanted to listen to Automatic, but I just woke up seven hours later. I feel dizzy, but I'm fine. The last four days were crazy as hell, (probably stupid), but I think I'd do that again. I have never felt like living so much.
