So I kinda just realized I didn’t sleep for the past 24 hours. Noy sure if it’s the longest I’ve been awake, but probably of the top 5 longest. I’m dealing with depression so my sleep cycle have been fucked up. Got coffee I think around the 12th hour mark.

I’ve basically just been watching youtube videos, browsing lemmy. Googled random things.

Idk why, I guess I just wanted some dopamine boost from coffee and now I can’t sleep lmao. Maybe a bit of anxiety around certain recent political events.

I honestly am not sure if I’m actually awake or dreaming.

Anyways, what is the longest time you’ve been awake without sleep? When did it happen and why?

    I pulled a 36 hour straight shift (using some shenanigans involving a labor hire company who were in on it) when working security. I had a 12 hr shift 6am till 6pm. On NYE and on NYD well NOBODY wanted to work the night shift on New Years Eve so the boss of the labor hire company took the job and farmed it to me knowing I didnt have to leave site or travel. $50 an hour for 36 straight hours most of which was laptop gaming wasnt bad.

      That would have been better, I had no games, and needed to handle IT support tickets as well as man the phones…
