      My “all dayers” is when I sleep from 12am to 4pm. You mean I have to be awake for that time??

    I didn’t sleep last night but it wasn’t my choice. I just didn’t get tired until about a half hour before I had to be up. Needless to say, today fucking sucked.

      Yeah, all-nighters are easy. It’s more the ~24 hrs+ cliff that comes out of nowhere that’s rough. Then there’s the battle to power on for another 14-15 hrs through the waves of highs and lows, because I’d rather that than sleep during the day and blow up the sleeping pattern.

      Pulling all-nighters for gaming shows very little experience with pulling all-nighters.

    Whenever I see something like this, I always think what the fuck. What kind of terrible shape are you in to have this low of an energy level already as a young man? Like you’re not even halfway through your life expectancy and you’re already this run down? I took a 61-year-old and a 72-year-old The Burning Man and the 61-year-old was routinely pulling all-nighters. Some of y’all really need to have a hard look at your health and maybe go talk to a doctor and get fully checked out to make sure there’s not something causing this level of fatigue, especially if you’re a desk job guy.

        I had a very unhappy youth but somehow I made it out still very high energy. I think it’s a contributing factor but not the primary cause.

      Ive recently discovered Lyme and bartonella are insanely common and cause a LOT of hard to track down effects (tiresome, anger, brain fog, joint swelling, bad sleep, heart arrhythmia, salt craving, reaction to certain foods, hearing loss, crawling skin; are a tiny amount of symptoms)… I’d be willing to bet a large portion of the population has untreated Lyme or similar.

      Ticks are exploding in population due to climate change as well. Get tested everyone. ! You can also get it from a cat scratch if a cat has been bit by a flea/bug with Lyme so every lemming better get tested, ha

      For real, I’m 30+ and still pulling all-nighters all the time with no problems, and I don’t think I’m in good shape

    30 was basically a brick wall. In my 20s I pulled an all nighter at least twice a month no problem. Now I become a complete zombie by 10am

      If I’m really locked in on something I can get to like 2am. It’s rare that anything does that for me anymore though. Too many other worries distracting me.

        I’m practically nocturnal, so staying up til sunrise is no problem, in fact getting to sleep before sunrise is the tricky part. It’s the after sunrise part when I hit the wall.

    Haven’t done an all-nighter since college, but a Factorio binge is just about the only thing that can keep me up past 2am.

    My strategy is never drinking coffeine (decaf coffee all day) and then, when I go to lans, I drink a White Monster per day. Keeps me awake till 5-6 am.

      You can get energy drinks that are just Paraxanthine now, all the good parts of Caffeine without the jitters.

      Drink too much coffee, and you can get allergic to it. Source: myself. Used to drink up to 2 litres a day lol. Now I only drink water and a glass or two a day of juice.

      I do the same as you with an energy drink, but damn, do they taste like shit!

        Most of the time when someone brags about 4-day weeks they still work 40+ hours and I don’t envy them much

          That’s true, I only work 32 hours though. And it’s not bragging, I’ve had burnout before and can’t work more than that for long periods of time, my body cannot handle it anymore.

    I don’t think I pulled my first all-nighter until my mid-twenties. I still do it maybe twice a year, but honestly my sleep schedule these days is bad enough that it’s probably carcinogenic.
