Ever Wish You Didnt Have to Sleep

<p>I think not having to sleep would be nice. I mean your body not having any adverse reaction to the lack if sleep. You want to sleep a little here or there to kill time, sure, but it wouldn't be required.</p>

<p>Think about how much you could get done. Damn</p>

<p>I think not needing sleep would get boring after a while. What’s nicer after a long weary day than cuddling up in a soft bed?</p>

<p>I do wish I could stop time while still being able to move around. I would do soooo many things legal and otherwise.</p>

<p>I want to be able to not need sleep, not to lose my ability to sleep</p>

<p>Sleeping takes up so much of one’s life. I would love to have the option to not sleep (and experience no side effects).</p>

<p>Admit it: if you didn’t need 8 hours of sleep at night you’d just spend those 8 hours googling your name :)</p>

<p>you guys ever hear about the uberman sleep schedule? google it.</p>

<p>I would run out of things to do if I did not have to sleep.</p>

<p>I am just not that busy.</p>

<p>Clark? is that you? If sleep werent a firmly established practice, the world population would be very different. no mattress store, no bedrooms? you get my point. </p>

<p>anyway, sleep is my hobby. There’s something joyous about being tired, and falling asleep… and waking up. so many of our biological functions require that cycle… hormones and such.</p>

<p>Nah, I like sleeping. I love feeling physically exhausted and then cuddling up with my boy and going to sleep. It allows me to check out of the world for a few hours at a time.</p>

<p>Lol story of my life. One of my fantasies (Not sure if that’s the right word for it) is to have been born with the ability to live without having to sleep. The trade-off would be that in order to get the energy that sleep provides my body would require 10,000 extra calories every day.</p>

<p>Being insomniac, not being able to sleep is a nightmare. It makes me stay up (like right now), pondering for another four hours while my dad noisily snores down the hall.</p>

<p>Its pure agony.</p>

<p>except if there was no adverse reaction then it wouldn’t be agony
so are you just trying to say “yes”?</p>

<p>I wish i could sleep… insomnia + being sick = no sleep</p>

<p>Sometimes I don’t feel like I need to sleep and sometimes I do, as long as I would get to pick which one then I would be fine. Like people are saying, sometimes I just need to check out for 4-5 hours lol</p>

<p>Definitely don’t wish I didn’t have to sleep, and it’s illogical to think that it would be possible. I would however appreciate being able to function with less sleep, I need my 8 hours or else my brain will switch off mid-afternoon. </p>

<p>I also wonder about the effects of training yourself to cope with less sleep. I know people who due to their hectic lifestyles have brought their daily sleep down from 8 to about 6 hours. At first it hit them like a brick wall, but after a few months they seem to have adapted to it, and say it’s just like when they used to have 8 hours. Seems too good to be true.</p>

<p>Even if you could take away the physical effects of no sleep, psychologically… people just need a break, you know?
If you can’t finish an essay, you sleep for on it and then you can tackle it better.</p>

<p>I love sleep. One of the best feelings in life is feeling really tired, getting into a cozy bed and drifting off into a land without pressure or responsibility for 8 hours.</p>

<p>I don’t sleep all that much as it is lol so no. I enjoy my sleep whenever I take the time for it.</p>

<p>The things I would be spending my time on are loud and would annoy everyone who was trying to sleep.</p>

<p>Besides, I LIKE sleeping. It’s one of my favorite things to do.</p>

<p>@Hella I actually tried following one of the schedules during senior year, and it worked out okay. I got by most days with <4 hours of sleep because it was one “cycle,” but I was still addicted to caffeine by the end of the year. Probably wasn’t doing it right, but hey.</p>

<p>lol, you’re meant to take 20-30 minute naps throughout the day. i don’t see how it could work with school at all. or a normal job.
the only way i could see people doing it is if they were either unemployed or a freelancer, because it really limits your ability to function along with society since you’re napping all the time</p>
