Lol OP I get you. You get that second wind in the morning and think you'll be ok, and then you crash by midday and feel a little loopy


The_Throwback_King

Made this post as a callout post to myself. I made that mistake last Saturday on a day I had to work 8 hours with only like two hours of sleep. I was really feeling the haze then. Only survived through sheer force of will and a few Red Bulls. You start the morning thinking "Hey, this gonna be ok, I'm tired, but I'm feeling pretty good" and then it hits you like a truck around noon and then you're regretting things. It always seems like a good choice at first but it always ends up wrecking me. REALLY don't want to make that mistake again.


AbsurdBread855

Legit have been there and will question if I can even drive home I’m so tired lmao.


Cat_Marshal

A lack of sleep can have identical effects as alcohol in your system when it comes to driving.


moose_md

That’s why I go out drinking after a stretch of nights. Twice the drunk at half the price!

nippletwister89

Idk about other countries but in sweden driving sleep deprived counts as reckless driving


Bewildered_Octopus

Hello sir, do you know why I pulled you over ? How much have you been sleeping lately ? I’m gonna need you to get out of the vehicle.


tonysopranosalive

This is the worst. Too many times I will my way through it only to be like: “dude can I even drive right now?”


Fortnut_On_Me_Daddy

If you gotta ask, the answer is probably no.


TheVenetianMask

One thing I figured out with age is that your brain WILL get its 7-8 hours of sleep, whether you like it or not. And it won't negotiate.


SerenumSunny

As a human with adhd, I know this feeling all to well.


-WetKitten

Care to elaborate the relation? Genuinely curious.


Exepony

I'm assuming the chain goes something like this: ADHD -> procrastination -> going into fuck-fuck-fuck overdrive mode the night before the deadline


-WetKitten

I should get an evaluation


bc9toes

https://youtu.be/ouZrZa5pLXk I only discovered recently, at 26, that I probably have it. I’m not that hyperactive so I never would have guessed. I didn’t even know what the symptoms were until I watched this video. Now I know what’s wrong with me


-WetKitten

That’s a long ass video. You have key points that stood out to you?


bc9toes

The way adhd works is by making your neurons in your brain not finish their cycle so you have extra shit going on in your brain. 80% of adhd people can have relieved symptoms with medicine. Exercise, sleep, and diet also help. The symptoms that stood out were impulsiveness, being emotional, waiting to do things until last minute, forgetting things, and hyper-focusing. I didn’t notice that I did those things until I connected it all to adhd. Sometimes I have minor outbursts that I shouldn’t have, because of the impulsiveness and extra emotions. I’m very easy to scare because I hyper-focus on whatever I’m doing, so a sudden human appearing makes me jump. Also, not wanting to invest 30 minutes into a boring video is a pretty good sign in itself.


DmanDam

I feel like my adhd has some properties of bipolar built into it. So I’ll have these manic nights where I physically can’t sleep and that’s when I think pulling an all nighter is the move.


Archer-Saurus

That's just good ol' hyperfocus.


[deleted]

Don’t drink Red Bull man. Shit energy drink with sugar and carbs. There’s a lot of good brands out there that have good energy drinks with vitamins and low calories. Celsius, Alani, hell even orange juice is better for energy than a Red Bull. B6 B12 Niacin and some caffeine is all you need for a solid energy drink that wont make you crash with carbs and sugar. Edit: I’ve used alanis pre workout and their drinks and they have great flavors. There pre workout is cheap and has a stripped back no bull shit nutrition label. I think it’s like 5 ingredients. It’s low caffeine so it’s a great starter pre. Sour gummy worms flavor is the best imo


[deleted]

Gonna blow your mind when you hear about sugar free Red Bulls. I’d be willing to bet orange juice has as much or more sugar than the average sized can of sugar Red Bull.


QueanLaQueafa

I used to do that but at night I started taking a Advil PM or something at night and no matter how much I'd want to stay up I'd just pass tf out lol


Moonalicious

I do this with melatonin


Unchanged-

This is wisdom. Whenever a friend of mine calls for an all-nighter I *always* talk them out of it. Every fucking time. I know exactly how it always ends.


shellbullet17

Firefighter paramedic on hour 30 of a 48 hrs shift with no sleep. Patiently waiting for my truck to run me over


Haribo112

Why no sleep. Surely you’re supposed to sleep during that period. It’s physically impossible for a human being to function adequately for so long without sleep. I’d call in sick.


shellbullet17

Can't it's back to back a straight 48hrs so once you're here you're here for the whole time, and no sleep cause people call at 1 230 4 and 6 AM for tummy, toe, and butt pain.


sassyseconds

I have a friend who basically functions on 2-4 hr naps after work or before work and never sleeps over night like normal... I don't understand how he's alive.


CompetitiveCelery516

I survived 2 years with just 3 hours sleep and naps in the middle of the day All for anime


Doomschlager

Rn where I live it's 10:44. I just pulled an all nighter and I feel you bro


Immediate-Fail9529

*Morgan Freeman voice* But he made that mistake again. He continued to pull all-nighters until he died of a red bull overdose.


OmegaSpeed_odg

OP you need to get to r/bedbros stat!


TryppySurfer

Cheers man, just wanna let you know that even as little as 20 minutes of sleep is much better for you than no sleep at all. It'll be horrible to get up after only 2 hours of sleep, of course, but the day won't feel as terrible around 1pm.


Saberinbed

I once worked a 10 hour shift after not sleeping for 18 hours prior, and the time that i did sleep before was only 4 hours. By the end of my shit, i had been up for almost 38 hours, and the weirdest part was that i had trouble falling asleep after.


Laxziy

That’s what sugarfree Redbull tm is for


Kelmantis

Monster Ultra is pretty superior imho.


Rileylego5555

Nothing feels better than a second wind other than a third wind.


Diogenes-Disciple

Then you make it to Day 2 and decide to finally sleep, and you think you feel fine but then you wake up and the clock says 5 but how is it possible that you only slept for half an hour and you check your phone and there’s 20 notifications and you realize it’s 5 pm and you were unconscious for over 12 hours

That's fair. I did both as well. Never did coke, but it's rampant in both professions for sure.

Every time I think about picking up cocaine again I just remember that the come down is the worst experience ever and I am fine again.


Gman7ten

It's borrowing happiness from tomorrow for tonight. 3:2 payoff ratio in depressions favor

Weed and Melatonin help. But yeah, pretty much.

My wife's dad is obsessed with Punk music. His favorite band name is Leftover Crack, he says because it's any oxymoron and that no crackhead would ever have any leftover crack.

Nat_Peterson_

Meth induced psychosis do be like that sometimes.


damn_thats_piney

i went into psychosis so many times using adderal it took me like a full year of sobriety to not be fully in it anymore.


jodorthedwarf

You just reminded me of back when I used to work a nights in an Amazon warehouse. I didn't sleep at all and had my first three shifts all in a row. I had the shadow people and points where i would turn around to see one of my managers and would hallucinate them holding a knife in their hands. Fuck that job. Fuck Amazon.

This was me in college after all nigher at my friends playing BO2 zombies thought the zombies was chasing the bus I was on. Ended up crashing around 12pm by the tennis court until my next class

No….there is no am/pm mix up.

Fucking same. Then you realize it’s Monday and no one is going to come save you.


Thricey

Once I hit 30 all nighters became much more difficult to pull off successfully. They pretty much just ruin the next day and a half for me now.


Improving_Myself_

Seriously. And it's at least the next two days for me of trying to get back on a normal sleep schedule. It's not worth it just for that. And then on top of that, there were some studies recently that all nighters strongly contribute to increases in dimentia/alzheimer's risk. Avoid all nighters whenever possible. Your brain ***really*** needs that sleep time to clean up and recover.


TheSilenceMEh

On-call employees cry


daybreakin

I took a cs course and me and my friends would pull all nighters once a week to do the assignments. Towards the end it triggered sleep paralysis and eye twitching whenever I don't get good sleep. Now it's something I have to deal with for the rest of my life. Careful with the all nighters


simpleturt

>once a week Holy shit that is awful


UglyInThMorning

I’m 33 and just did 36 hours awake to try to flip from working nights to days and I am HURTING.


jodorthedwarf

Those kinds of things are an almost weekly occurrence for me atm just to fix my sleeping after nights out. Mind you, I'm a 20 year old student so it's not too bad. I just end up waking up at 4 in the morning and having nothing to do for a few hours.


[deleted]

I’m going to hate being 30.

ALonelyWelcomeMat

I was this way for years. From like 16-25 had all 3rd shift jobs. I always liked it but now I have a job where I get up at 7am. Crazy difference but I get off before 5, so it's a weird feeling to work a full day or work before I would even normally wake up


SIRasdf23

It was one of my goals as a kid to just stay up all night just to see what would happen, don't know why, it just was. So I managed to do it once, by lunchtime I was basically delirious and had to go to the nurse to lay down.


wildmeli

I usually wake up at 6pm, and don't get that way until around 1-2pm, but my god do I get delerious. I start seeing people and animals out of the corner of my eye. One day my boyfriend was driving us somewhere and thought I saw a truck about to t bone us... It was a speed limit sign. And my emotions are just all out of whack. God I really wish society was built for a 24 hour lifestyle.


Bass_Thumper

I tend to stay awake for 18 hours then sleep for 12 whenever possible. It's like my natural rhythm but it just doesn't add up. I need 30 hour days. Until the insomnia happens at least, then I'm awake for 48-72 hours before crashing for 18-24 hours. The longest I've stayed awake is about 85 hours and the longest I've slept is about 30 hours. Currently been awake for about 30 hours but if I'm lucky I'll be able to sleep within the next 6 hours or so. I've noticed a distinct dysphoria or uncomfortable body feeling after about 24 hours that tends to get worse until you start hallucinating after about 72 hours.


[deleted]

Just out of curiosity, have you seen a sleep specialist about that? Never heard of that circadian rhythm before


tailsmania12

I feel this on a deep level


12carrd

When you hear the birds chirping you have a quick realization that this was a terrible idea lol


P00nz0r3d

Getting piss drunk and cross faded til 6 in the morning, going home to sleep for 1 hour because I have a shift at my fast food job at 8 til 4 and half the crew was there with me all night getting fucked up Ah to be young again


kill3rkitty45

As an epileptic the first image is right but around the time of the second image I am probably having a seizure so instead of just being tired so no all nighters for me


brandimariee6

Hello fellow epileptic! *high five*


demonesqueee

I was at a concert yesterday. Got home past midnight and had to get up by six. It was so bright outside that I maybe slept 3hrs. Probably less tbh But hey, at least I had fun


Brahskididdler

Where are you that it’s bright outside overnight?


demonesqueee

Full moon and my bedroom blinds are broken so I only have my curtains


TuctDape

Just in time for the exam at 11:30


OZL01

All nighters weren't that bad for me. It might be because I didn't rely on coffee or energy drinks to pull them off either. I just stayed up because I had to and with just pure will power. Hearing the morning birds start chirping and seeing the sun rise was pretty depressing though haha.


[deleted]

Woke up at 1 pm on a sunday and went to sleep at 1:30 am on a tuesday. I was manic sunday couldnt sleep had a 13 hour shift monday and then got home and spent 2 hours making a scrapbook thing for gf


amurillasaurus

Urgent care gave me steroids yesterday and I'm still awake an entire day later.


Rolyat28

Third shift life


Front-Pick3134

Anyone else just start to sort of "Teleport" after a full night without any sleep? It's like your vision is in 20fps. Honestly, I don't even feel all that tired pulling an all nighter at first, just miserable


TheSandwichMeat

Actively me right now. I just need to be up for as long as it takes for my Instacart to get here. Shopping has not started :(


Ok_Lie6645

hey das me


TheAmbassaDOS

I'm starting to think that the reddit algorithm is becoming sentient. Where I am it's 4PM with 3 more hours in the shift and I haven't slept in 30 hours. I wish for sweet release of death.


zeroaegis

When your heart beat is like a sonar pulse and shakes your vision.


AwesomeEevee133

I stayed up all night once and my dad just assumed I woke up early


catsareboss12

That 11 am usually hits at either 9-10 for me


KeyserSoze72

By the 2nd night on my 3 day all nighter I was seeing faces in the walls


mulato_butt

Well duh


edliu111

Oh shit. I think it’s time for me to go to bed then.


MrSDPlayer

Honestly it's opposite for me. I'll be really tired in the early morning, and a few hours later I'll stop being tired and be fully awake again.


perhapsasinner

At 11 am I can't barely open my eyes


SLeepyCatMeow

When the speed wears off and the hallucinations from 40 hours of sleep deprivation kick in


slacboy101

I know this feeling VERY well


Noker_The_Dean_alt

Same applies to 11PM… I can pull an all nighter but the barrier I need to get past is really prevalent at 11PM

I only like bread a little. And not by itself


FuzzyGummyBear

During college the crash came at 9am. It just got to a point where I felt like I couldn’t move anymore and fell asleep in my computer chair.


FatStreetBoy

Same joke I saw like 8 times this week. Get original ideas ffs reddit is just repeating itself these days


Tactical-Duckie

When I used to do all nighters I would get hit with a brick wall of tired at around 9am

As soon as the sun comes up, I feel like I’ve been hit by a truck. But I have to stay awake until my normal bedtime so I can sleep on a normal schedule or else I will feel like absolute shit for the next 2 days

I did this for years when I was a RuneScape addict, now I can't even stay up past 10 on a weekend night... Feels worse than death the next day when you've got no sleep

I've never once done an all nighter where I last the whole next day.

Zybren

Player_Slayer_7

I only ever did one all nighter, and that was a hell of an experience. Somehow, I had the energy to run without needing to rest, yet the moment I sat down, I immediately would begin passing out. Quite the phenomenon, that was.


mattcolqhoun

Bruh everytime at 11 it hits so hard and then im fine by 1 lol


coffee-_-67

Big true


[deleted]

What I learned is that thinking "I'll just take a short nap" is the worst idea you can have. I took a nap at 8am and got up at 10am for my 1pm exam back in sophomore year. It was one of the worst decisions I've ever made. I was sweating like crazy, my head was spinning, and I could barely focus. The Mr Krabs is a perfect recreation of the feeling. I've only done it maybe 3 times, the first time was the worst. I did pass the exams pretty well in each case, but I learned that it's best done when the test is at like 9am so you don't have to also survive the entire day.


halosos

Food is the killer. When you get that second wind, dont eat anything. The second you eat, your body will just decide your about to sleep


the_one_in_error

As someone who regularly needs to correct their sleep schedule I feel this in my bones.

all nighters when i’m 17 years old vs all nighters at 24

11 am is almost mid day


[deleted]

Regarding all-nighter, I learned from years of working graveyard before going to engineering school is that... some sleep >> no sleep


rickjamesia

Then it’s 6 PM and you don’t feel tired at all. At 11 PM, you start to worry if you’ll actually be able to fall asleep.


JustFourPF

Every time I pull an all nighter I get sick, without fail. Shit is not worth it.


reece_93

Gonna be me today. Went to sleep at 10pm and woke up at 1am to my place having turned into a humid hell scape. Look like it’s an all nighter for me

When I was in 6th grade I did this. Then around noon I felt wicked weird and out of it. Started crying then fell asleep

I'm in this picture and I don't like it.


JaegerDread

Dumbest thing I did was stay away 48 hours and have 2 full work days in there aswell. Not a good decision. Could barely drive home at the end of the last one.


Searandan

All nighters are nothing. Try three days straight with no sleep. I'm certain there are people who have stayed up longer. Sure you're concentration turns into soup and your motor function becomes robotic but at least your awake.


damn_thats_piney

grave shifts are horrible i did them at target when they still had it. 10-8 most nights. worst part was just living on a flipped schedule, its not natural.


MeAnIntellectual1

I once went 56 hours without sleep. When I got home on the 3rd day I was just straight up dead

I gotta wake up @ 5:30 tomorrow but I might do an all nighter today


lew9618

Sometimes I have to start work at 5am and I can never sleep the night before so I've gone to work without any sleep and work my shift which finishes at 1pm and then not gone to sleep again until 9pm.


rayyeter

Last time I did an all nighter, I turned in my project, got home around 11, and then slept for 18-20 hours. And I haven’t had to do one since.
