going without sleep leads to psychosis, and combined with marijuana its not very pleasant. Caffeine is not good for you either and energy drinks contain sodium benzoate or some form of benzene which is basically the most carcinogenic substance mankind has ever known. Sodium benzoate is not carcinogenic, which is why they are allowed to use it as a preservative (also found in just about ever soda, mouthwash, packaged condiment and tons of other stuff).

The clincher is that when mixed with simple vitamin C (ascorbic acid) it breaks down into plain benzene which will in turn liquefy your insides (dramatization but the chance of getting cancer after exposure to any amount of benzene is about 10 millionfold of what it is normally)


So your best bet is instead of energy drinks (which help because they contain b vitamins and other nutrients and caffeine) is to get a strong multi vitamin. and some caffeine pills.

It's much healthier and you'll feel better and get better results too!



besides cutting down on benzoate or benzoic acid containing products there isn't much you can to to eliminate all exposure to it because benzene is found in car exhaust......meaning you're breathing it in right now.


I guess its a little comforting to know that either way you're going to die sooner rather than later



most i stayed up for was 48 hours straight, i had to work for 17 hours with only a 1 hour break too, which was unpleasant.

I tried to smoke a cigarette and i passed out from it, it gave me the nastiest head rush and then i blacked out on the sidewalk in front of where i was working, they found me sleeping there about 15 or 20 min later...

No bueno!

No Sleep Experiment 07' Okay guys...so this summer I've had many an all-nighter, most of which being induced from the consumption of multiple energy drinks and the ability to play 8-man gears of war with the guys on a multiple TV's and a projector (which is amazingly chill by the way, esp. after a good toke). But that isn't important. What is important is that me and some of my friends have decided to undergo a no sleep experiment. Moreover a contest. Now, I know that a lack of proper sleep can #$% you up, so Rating: 5
