tricks to fighting off sleepiness?

[slackerinabox]

I am not condoning smoking but I once drove from NYC to D.C (about 3 hours) on 20 minutes of sleep (took a nap then jumped in my car). I was zoning out on the road so I smoked some of my pal's ciggarettes... it was much more powerful than coffee and I was alert and kicking.

I started smoking when I worked my overnight shifts a couple of jobs ago (several years back). They DEFINATLY were good at keeping me awake, however, I wish I never got into that terrible habit.

I don't drink "energy drinks" as I have a problem paying over $1 for a little 8oz drink that will not quench my thirst or get me drunk. I usually just drink 2 liters of mountain dew and a pot or two of coffee when I'm really sleepy and want to stay awake.



If the caffeine doesn't keep you up, running to the bathroom to pee every 15 minutes will....

Try sleeping, always works for me when I feel tired.

Go outside for 5 minutes. The sun always wakes me up.

Failing that, look into a really bright light.

A good panic attack will keep you from sleeping.

I find that doing some quick push-ups helps.


That and any form of pain.

Actually do work. I like the push-up one too to keep the blood flowing.

if you need to stay awake, don't drink with caffeine.

more sugar = more tiredness after going crazy.

Caffeine, lot's and lot's of caffeine!

 

[Don Vito Corleone]

Tickle the roof of your mouth with your tongue.

 

[IAteYourMother]

just go to sleep

Fire.

Do what the truckers do, get you some crank.

 

[zerocool1]

drinking water helps, it forces you to get up.

Bawls, AMP, Mountain Dew, Black Coffee
