Polyphasic Sleep
#51
RE: Polyphasic Sleep
Well, I've never tried it. But you've gotta watch out with sleep deprivation, I mean, in my experience.

I didn't sleep for several days once, and I had an 8 week long manic psychotic episode and I've been on the drug Lithium for nearing 3 years now - it's not an easy drug to come off, your body gets dependent on it. When I come off it in time, if I ever will need it again I don't know.

So you've really gotta know what you're doing, don't fuck with sleeping too much lol.

Obviously what happened to me doesn't happen to everyone who lacks sleep. There were other factors as well in my case. Although the lack of sleep is a huge factor. I saw a TV doco about how lacking sleep for several days can even give you hyperactivity, hypersensitivity, delusions and even hallucinations. All of which I believe I had except hallucinations.
