Sleep

[paraantik]

I refuse to sleep anymore. Sleep is where my childhood has gone. All down the drain, all because I was under the mistaken impression that sleep was something I needed. Now I am upset, naturally because sleep is not what I need and I've wasted 1/3 of my life to the vicious monster known as tiredness. Well fuck'n shit, if sleep thinks it can rule

Good luck Tim. I've often thought about doing this myself. I wish you the best in conquering sleep.

Realistically and medically, evidence suggests that the human brain does actually need about 1.5 hours of sleep to function properly. Anything above and beyond that is really just icing on the cake. But, good luck anyway. And welcome to the club o' the people who don't sleep. We're commonly known as insomniacs, by the way.

The exact amount may be debatable. In a psychology class in college, we went over a study in which they very gradually reduced the amount of sleep people got and watched how they functioned. People were able to function very well on a much smaller amount of sleep than 8 hours, but nonetheless, they started to go downhill when the amount was taken below 4-4 1/2 hours per night. They simply couldn't take people under that amount without them experiencing negative effects during the day. But still...4 hours instead of 8. Not bad.
