Ambiens are great but require doctors prescription. |
The longest I've been awake was three days. I've known people that have been awake for 15 days before. I think you have to be awake for 4-6 weeks before it kills you, though your body usually makes you pass out before then.
If you have chronic insomnia, I would seriously go to a doctor and get some sleeping pills or go to a sleep clinic. There's usually a reason why you can't sleep, but untill you figure it out and correct it, takes some pills for a couple of nights just to sleep for awhile. If you don't want to take pills, take Valerian root. I don't recommend eating it raw though, I would take it capsule form because it tastes disgusting. But Valerian will definitely relax you naturally and that's usually enough for your body to sleep for awhile. |

Anyway: Man Breaks Sleep Deprivation Record A man has claimed a new record by succeeding in his bid to stay awake for 11 days as part of his research into human sleep. Tony Wright, 42, began his attempt on the 264-hour record at 6am on May 14 at the Studio Bar in Penzance, west Cornwall. A qualified horticulturist, he relied on a raw food diet, including fruit, salad, seeds and nuts, to help keep him awake. After setting the record just after 6am on Friday, he said: "I feel pretty good but a bit shaky. It has not really sunk in yet that I have beaten the record. "I do not feel tired yet, but there is a bit of adrenaline pumping around at the moment." He said his diet and intake of herb tea "seemed to make a big difference to my ability to stay awake and remain functional". Mr Wright had the help of friends, chatting and playing pool, to keep him awake. He has conducted 15 years of research into human sleep, and claimed each side of the human brain requires a different amount of sleep. With appropriate preparation, it is possible to stay awake and remain functional for long periods, he said. During his record bid he said he had one "near sleep experience" and found the most difficult thing to do was writing his website diary while sleep-deprived. Student Randy Gardner set the Guinness World Record in 1964 as part of a science project in San Diego, US. http://www.channel4.com/news/article...+record/531107 http://www.gulf-times.com/site/topic...8&parent_id=20 http://www.thisislondon.co.uk/news/a...ord/article.do http://www.independent.ie/world-news...rd-684994.html http://news.scotsman.com/health.cfm?id=819272007 |
