good question bob
everyones threshold is different really
i mean, even after 2 days of no sleep some people report hallucinations and feelings of paranoia
id say if you start feeling edgy, paranoid and generally above average levels of anxiety id get thee to a bed pretty quick smart
no one likes a grumpy cannibal bob

present your plan to him. I doubt this is going to alter his concepts, however the alternative is as much as him. he's the single which will do the lion's share of the artwork. And canines ARE artwork. And a extensive accountability. The canines can not purely take a seat there all day twiddling its feet, it desires greater beneficial than a pair of walks to be satisfied, and could require common interplay. Many bored canines finally end up destroying the abode. notwithstanding in case you undertake an older canines, your mum and dad and grandparents would be tied down for the subsequent 8 to 10 *YEARS* looking after this canines, while you fortunately play with the canines once you have slightly time for it. As you get busier with extreme college, and busier nonetheless once you pass off to college, the canines will nonetheless be there. if your dad wanted a canines, he'd have already got one. So don't be shocked if he rejects your plan. And if he does, then end pestering him approximately it and renounce your self to not having a canines until eventually you progression into your guy or woman place.

Most people need at least 7 hours sleep per night, with 8 being common. I get by on around 6 but I'm wired. If you're routinely getting less than that, you need to get proper sleep.

Hmmm well I can get away with 5 hours for about a week and then I start crying for no reason. You just see me hysterically crying....very odd I know. It's different for everybody. LOL don't try it for too long it can affect you long term too if you do that for a while. Ummm I would say 4 hours if your an adult, 5 hours for a teen, and 5 hours for a child.

it all depends heavily on your level of fitness and job type,
iam a scottish soldier and can perform a large range of heavy tasks within 3 days of no sleep, before i start to double tap , as long as you are eating properly and getting enough fluids you should be able to survive at least 6 days on a minimal level of 3 hours sleep a day

I worked nights for two and half years, one time I went to work, got paid the next morning, went out and did a load of shopping, went to work the next night, couldn't sleep the next day and had to go to work that night, when I got to work two friends covered for me while I found a safe place and went to sleep, they woke me up for my breaks and then at the end of the night, bloody good friends. lol
