Sleep deprivation

Never gotten to day 2 of no sleep. I’m not tired at all. My mind won’t shut up. And everything around.me is moving as if I took lsd.

Sometimes when I get stimulated and overwhelmed and can’t sleep I’ll throw a hot washcloth across my face and put some peaceful music on and go lay down. Whatever that may be for you - classical, some kind of trance, whatever works for you. Hope you get some sleep and feel better. :slight_smile:

I have to stay up now I have an exam in 7 hours and I’d like to study some more

Ooof. Condolences. I hope your exam goes well, and that you get some rest soon. We sz’ers go whackadoodle without proper sleep.

Er, yesterday now I suppose

Yeah, from looking around the forum, it doesn’t sound like you’ve had the best day. Hang in there! The weekend doth approach.

Sleep deprivation, definitely not a good place to be. I get bouts like that myself, and then I crash and burn for 24 hours

Things can get pretty wonky when I’m not sleeping

Yeeaahh, I can see why. I literally felt like I had taken a dose of some psychedelic around hour 43. I mean everything became alive and danced, I heard voices that were a lot different than my usual ones, had a lot of strange body sensations and kept feeling like I was about to die randomly. Also my heartbeat was irregular a bit, not enough to be concerning i think, but I did notice.

Whatever you feel you need to keep yourself safe. Can you retake the test another day? I’m sure they would be reasonable, given the circumstances

I emailed her about what’s going on and she said there are no make ups since the class has dropped scores at the end, so even if i miss one exam that 0 wont impact my grade. But it is a very fast paced course and i’ll get pretty behind, but i’m thinking i can catch up once i’m stablized and probably end up doing better overall.

Hospital sounds like a good plan at this point. They can get you to sleep and interrupt the cycle. And possibly help you out with a med adjustment that might make you feel loads better.
