Why did I go 2 days without sleeping without any tiredness?


Question:
One time I went 2 entire days without sleeping. I didn't sleep because I wasn't tired AT ALL, people feel tired when they can't sleep. I felt energetic without any fatigue.. Infact on the second day I excercised actively (running, swimming, ball) and stayed up late at night. I had psychotic symptoms after that.

Answers:
you need to see a doctor, not a bunch of yahoos on YouQA.com
Because you are on Meth? Have you tried driving or some type of mental activity. I'll bet that is impaired.
energy splurge? i get those every now and then...
it could be one of these

.you could be excited or nervous about somthing even small that makes you not sleepy
.if you were on the comp. late at night like you are now that tells your mind not to sleep so go in a dark room with a pillow and watch boring tv lol until you fall asleep
<3hope i helped ,,,though i prob. didnt lol
You are a freak.
Sometime's people have alot on there mind's and can't sleep. You will feel energetic for a while but eventually it will catch up with you. It will cause you to have those kind's of symptoms.
sounds like depresion.
keep up the exercise, and avoid long periods with out sleep if posable or you risk affecting your relationships with others.
you mind not a toy dont play with it.respect!
unless you leaning towards shaminism then you need to do it in a structured way so educate your self first.
Sounds a bit like bi-polar I, as opposed to bi-polar II. But don't take my word for it. See someone other than a phychiatrist--they're mostly assholes, unless you get lucky. See a real therapist and she/he will give you a better diagnosis, because they see you more often. Might be just a couple of sleepless nights. I'm going by seeing my mother. who is bi-polar one, while I'm bipolar two. She used to go many nights without sleep. Played the damn piano all night long. When I don't sleep because of my own problem, it really screws up my day(s).
Well possibly you had too much caffine. When l have caffine l stay up REALLY late because l can't go to sleep! lt's annoying. So possibly caffine gives you the jitters, so cut down on the stuff and see if that doesn't help.
Sleepybuckets is right on target. If you didn't have any stimulant drugs or a huge amount of natural caffeine prior to this period of two days without sleeping, it's possible that you experienced a manic episode. It probably felt good up until the crash, but don't let that keep you from seeing a doctor ASAP. If you are developing bipolar disorder, it needs to be treated. The earlier it's caught and treated, the easier it is to control.

(I don't know about this from personal experience, but I have a bipolar friend who exists on very little sleep and periodically crashes and burns. The meltdown, when it comes, is not pretty. She's very resistant to medical treatment because, right up until the crash sets in, she's having a fine time. Regrettable things often happen while she's having a manic fine time. It's painful to watch.)
Drugs? But I'm sure you wouldnt be asking us about that, because that's kind of obvious...

I would say maybe BiPolar? Definetly think about talking to a doctor. I stayed awake for about 5 days in a row, and had the time of my life *giggle* Didnt feel so good afterwards and dearly paid for it.

Contact me if you like, if you want to talk about more specific things... I have BiPolar, so I can tell you how I feel when I'm up for that long. Totally not saying you have it, cos I have it, or anything kinda bullsh#t like that, ok? I'm only sharing what I know.

All the best, Al
Have to go w/ folks who say bi-polar .Your're manic now maybe that way for a while then CRASH. I stay up for 3 days not tired I though this was a good thing I was on top of the world you couldn't stop I was doing good things for myself THEN... crash life sucked again- I don't know about you but get it checked out Just Be sure you get med that is right for you that may take awhile to figure out wish u the best (more than 1 says this so it may be true)
