FabSwingers.com forum: How do you keep awake

I’m not allowed to sleep tonight and this is way past my bedtime already. I’ve normally napped mid afternoon and my eyes are dropping.

I have tea, alarms set to go every hour but what do you do to keep awake. Reading and watching films makes me even more sleepy.

Ah actually me too, I did think about purposely making myself cold. But then I’d be even more miserable

Try coffee, Diet Coke or Red Bull, Lex. Not all three together though, you'd be awake for days!

I am making regular cups of tea. Which is in turn making me get up to go to the toilet and I’m going to the upstairs one just for the effort

You know I’ve never had an energy drink, maybe now was the time to change that

It may well be the time to change that

I'll open a can of Red Bull and you can have a sip if you like

On a mooch

I find keeping active, focusing the brain, for me I draw or play a game.

Reading or watching tv makes me sleepy as I lie down to do it

Hope you find something that works for you

I’m usually never someone who has a problem sleeping. I spend way too much of my life asleep these days

I’m having some tests tomorrow and so I’m not allowed to sleep tonight, hopefully I’ll have better results if I manage it.

If you really need to stay awake, put on some music, dance and move. Sitting down is tiring

Gets weird when you cross a certain point, 72-96 hours your mind plays tricks with you and you start seeing things that aren’t there, black shadows

I guess you just turn your life around Lucy in time. It becomes a whole different world. It’s kinda fascinating though this other life.
