    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.

      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

    I was pulling all-nighters well into my 40’s, but I had insomnia. It wasn’t something I wanted to do. However, I did take advantage of it for work.

    I found the solution to my insomnia and never looked back. Now I fall asleep almost like a normal person.

    Tho I get my energy boost around 7 pm so yeah.

    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.

      Its not even a binge for me. Its: oh one hr before bed? Let me just fix this real quick. 3am: fuck.

    I wish all nighters were still an option My body is ready, i want it. But it’s not the responsible thing to do. Gotta function properly the next day

    Being an adult sucks, they warned us about it

      being an adult is awesome.

      but i hated being a child. It was miserable and video games were very limited supply and my time was very limited.

        I hated my childhood and there’s nothing that could get me to relive that part of my life. That being said this whole work for money exchange program we’re forced into as adults sucks…40+ hours a week… EVERY WEEK! And no recess or summer vacation!

          I have six weeks of PTO and a dozen holidays a year. that’s about 8 weeks of time I don’t work a year.

            Rub it in why don’t you. :P

            I had sporadic health issues earlier this year that weren’t consistent enough for FMLA and I’m down to 4 hours PTO. If I’m a good boy, I’ll gain maybe an hour a month.

            Plus, the whole deal at my workplace was they acknowledged they paid under market rate in exchange for extra flexibility. Now we have new management who desperately doesn’t want to pay us for time on-call anymore, and doesn’t believe in time in-lieu (work after hours, get the equivalent off during business hours). I’m a full fledged systems engineer making under $90k. That’s a lot of money, but it sure as hell isn’t competitive for my skills, and more and more I’m wondering if it’s really worth what it’s costing me.

    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.

    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.

        By that age you’d have seen such an event almost 20 times, give or take. You know how it turns out and don’t need to see it for yourself, you can just get the highlights later if anything abnormal happens.
