No one believes this, but I once stayed awake for 8 straight days, not a minute of sleep. I did this because I had read somewhere that after 2-3 days, one would start to hallucinate. Well, I never hallucinated, and to the best of my knowledge there has been no adverse effects on my mind or body.
Once I finally slept, I slept a normal 7-8 hours and didn't feel abnormally tired when I woke up.
