Is it bad to not sleep for 3 days/nights straight on school nights?

My friend dared me and my other friend to do it and so far we got one night down, but should we attempt the next 2?

Yes it’s a bad idea. No you should not attempt the next 2. Even if they weren’t school nights, that’s just not healthy kiddo.

Don’t do it. It’s unhealthy and it will ruin your sleeping pattern.

You will only make yourselves ill, lack of sleep will cause all sorts of things, also it could cause you to have an accident.. like not paying attention when you cross a road etc.
I would not do it if I were you, and more so not if it is just for a silly dare.

NO!!! Don’t do it! Not only will you be falling asleep in class (therefore gettin into trouble at school), but you are meant to sleep. Sleep alows your body and mind to rest, without it you will begin to “loose it.” Not to mention that it can mess with your sleeping/eating patterns and make you pretty sick. Ask yourself this - your friend dared you to do it, but his he doing it himself?

Nope; you could really mess yourself up and there has been a study that says something about if you go without sleep for a certain amount of time; you could actually possibly die.

I was also dared to do that once. It was 4 nights instead of 3 and on my 2nd night i had a black-out. Try not to have a black-out and you should be fine.

If you are going to do it you will have to drink 3 things each night. Frappuchinno,Red Bull,5-Hour Energy(Or 6-Hour power)

I just did about four nights, towards the end of the 2nd and the begging of the 3rd I began seeing inanimate objects in my room moving (mostly up, forward, and around) Its kinda cool but definantly not worth the commitment. Really random things would happen based upon where I looked, for example if I were to look at my curtains across the room which have my dvd shelf right in front of them, the curtains would hug my dvd’s i thought it was pretty neat just because it was the most random thing ever.

I decided to stay up for the heck of it and this is my second night. So far I’ve been fine in behavior, cause if I wasn’t my parents would have noticed.

Try taking no less than 60mgs of amphetamines around 9pm each night. You will no longer sleep. It is essentially a way to eliminate sleep and work thru the night.

I only sleep 2 or 3 nights a week for the last 7 months. I feel calmer and very focused and get a large amount of energy from somewhere inside my body that last all day. I eat quite often and drink plenty to hydrate. So I guess it depends on your body and quality of the meth your going to have to take.
