What would happen if I stopped sleeping?

well once I tried staying awake as long as possible…lol it lasted about 3 days, trust me its harder then it sounds I got like 16 straight hrs of sleep after that

your such a retard!!! Sleeping is the body’s time to repair.If you stop sleeping,your body can’t repair itself very well.So at some point,you’ll die.

Sleep deprivation leads to deteoriorated performance in terms of mental capability as well as physical. Staying awake for more than 4 days…well…I’m assuming if you don’t have enough juice, your body WILL automatically goto sleep and shutoff until you have enough energy to wake up.

A brain is very similar to a computer. Sleep is basically the brain shutting down into a standby mode in order to understand and file all the information that has been introduced to it throughout the day before hand. So sleep is for the brain and not the body, the body can actually function quite easily without sleep as long as it rests every now and again. If you have too much of an information back-log to compile then your brain will crash, just like a computer will. It will simply stop working and all of your bodily functions will desist to work in the same way they would if your body got too cold. The agreed time one can go without sleep is approximately three weeks but I wouldn’t advise it!

you wud die after bout 10 days or summet!
