I havent been able to sleep all night. Since its summer, I'm sorta-nocturnal, lol.
I slept from about 8am to 5pm yesterday. it is 7am, and I still cant sleep. I have to be somewhere at 9am, and I ahve to start getting ready at 8am.
I have to stay awake until AT LEAST 5pm today. What are some things I can do to keep myself awake BESIDES coffee or drugs?

Try getting up as often as possible and stretching or taking a short brisk walk (even if it's just to the bathroom). Really get involved with whatever it is you're doing. Concentrating on a task will keep your mind busy. Deep breaths are good for increasing oxygen flow to the brain. That's why we yawn when we're tired. Then, unless you have a reason for staying up all night and sleeping all day, DON'T GO TO BED (or nap) UNTIL AROUND 10 pm. You should be tired enough by then to stay asleep for a few hours. When you do wake up, stay up again until at least 10 pm. It'll take about a week to get used to the new sleep schedule.

Thomas Edison took 10 to 15 min cat naps while recording the hours and minutes of the light bulb.
over a twelve hour period -- but i could never do that , the only thing that has ever worked for me are stimulants i.e. caffeine and any other stimulants , gaurana, ginseng, taurine,and metabolic boosters such as creatine.
good luck i hope you find something that works for you .

A good night's sleep!! Seriously, you need sleep to stay awake.
Other than that, I would say those Stacker pills. They're all natural. Like Ginseng and all that kinda crap.They come in a little tube with a purple stopper.

Drink Grapefruit juice and Coke alternatively. The sugar from the coke and the vitamin C from the grapefruit juice will keep you sharp and awake

ok, at first, liquor is a depressant and could make you drowsy, 2nd of all, you're able to no longer blend ibuprofen with liquor because of the fact it places you at an greater desirable possibility for liver injury and abdomen bleeding. eating espresso to stress your self to stay unsleeping for the duration of hours once you're able to be asleep is likewise risky.

any drink with caffine will help, cold water on your face, fresh air, stretch with a short brisk walk.
