^ everyone is different and yeah it is dangerous
One person set the record for it for like 17 days or something and I couldn't sleep for 11 or so, possibly more. I just couldn't sleep. I lost track of time. Life became a dream. Its so messed up.
Sleep is best. I just put on some pink noise or a fan and then I try to think about nothing because I have tinnitus so I can't sleep if there's no noise
IDeally though, focus on keeping a consistent clear sleep schedule and dont interupt it more than one a month, at most,
starts getting dangerous (brain damage) after several days.
if you don't take short naps(1-4hrs).
if you do take short naps, you can go about 11 days without brain damage.
should note, after being awake all night, one drives exactly the same as someone with a BAC over the legal limit 👍
source: sleep deprivation training in the military.
I wonder what an MRI of my brain looks like then according to that info lol
around 25 is when you lose the ability to keep track of time. or 27 if your buffer is a little bit longer. this almost always results in going over 30.
this also assumes nobody changes your clocks or alters your idea of time further, because you've personally lost the ability and are now dependent on fungibles like timers and clocks.
The danger is twofold:
1. your brain has no idea when anything is happening, so it doesn't time any of your biological processes right. every organ is now failing, but very slowly. hopefully when you do go to sleep, your brain fixes things as best as it's able; but you aren't a replaceable machine. you are suffering permanent damage from this timing failure.
2. your brain doesn't know where your other brain is, because of the timing problem, and has nuked several 'rogue cells' in your brain which it turns out was actually your brain. you now have dementia.
Probably like swiss cheese, but if that's the causal factor for your insomnia then it may have already been like that and the insomnia is just a symptom.
this is just what was relayed to us before we signed up for the training, and back then the studies were fairly new / or based on outdated info. i think more advances in neuroscience have happened in the 2018's so, that can probably be better to listen to.
everyone also has a different tolerance. some people will go more, some will go alot less.
but because its a moving target, the risk remains, right. largely one can't predict the damage.
the damage can heal though, if one gives it long enough time to heal.
