Without launching into lengthy and boring details, I didn't sleep last night, didn't sleep today and cannot sleep tonight through to until at least tomorrow afternoon. It's work and there is nothing I can do about it.

Would caning the Red Bulls and coffee work or does anyone have some other advice that can get me through to tomorrow afternoon? I don't care what I have to drink or take. All legal off course :p
 
We need the lengthy and boring details in order to offer you advice.
Also having us analyse why the details are boring will keep you awake for an hour or so as we take the thread off topic.
:p
 
I wonder if the need for sleep will ever be cured, would be amazing to get that much more time :p There was a good American Dad episode on it.
 
Buy a stun gun, tape it to your forehead, moment you hit the desk you get shocked awake again with a dose of adrenaline to keep you going.
 
What's the deal with all these sleep threads recently?

on topic, it's going to be pretty hard dealing with being awake that long. Your brain can't cope with such a lack of sleep and will likely just put you into micro sleeps.
 
From my experiences: drink plenty of water/fluids, needing to go to the loo will keep you awake. If you can listen to loud music, or www.rainymood.com that can also help. Try to walk around every so often to keep the circulation active and alert.
 
I broke my big toe last night dropping a generator on it. Not on purpose I hasten to add. Had no problems staying awake after that.
 
Step 1. Eat coffee powder and wash it down with redbull and coke.

Step 2. Cover yourself from head to toe with nicotine patches.

Step 3. Listen to "Rage against the machine" as lound as you can.

Step 4. Do as regulus says and drop a generator on your toe.

Step 5. Staple your eyes open.


If you manage to sleep after that I will be amazed. :D
