I Am Sleepy But Fighting My Sleep

I have been sleeping 2-5 hours every night this week, I almost fell asleep several times in class today! I am going to try and stay up until tomorrow though, it has been too long since I skipped a whole night

Skipping sleep is bad for you...

@HootyTheNightOwl I know and I don't care. Others drink or smoke pot, I stay up all night. Don't we all have something unhealthy that we like?

@Nightsocks As long as you also don't care about developing high blood pressure, finding yourself unable to deal with stress and being stuck with taking medication that means that you'll choose between never again sleeping for longer than 4 hours at a time or having a stroke or heart attack for the rest of your life, that's all that matters, right???

Trust me when I say that the battery of tests that they put you through isn't pretty, either. It took me a year to complete that little lot - which will add up to a pretty penny to fork out for if you happen to live in the US, too.
