I've been up for nearly 24 hours with a
few shrot naps here and there. I ran out
of xanax yesterday (temp prescription) and
am waiting for my new prescription to
start. I guess im just really worried
about being up for so long. My body is
fatigued but my mind wont sleep. The one
time I laid down and finally got
everything out of my head for 2 min I
passed out (not literaly) but it seems
like I just cant stop thining. I know
that it is anxiety but I just cant seem to
get over it. Please some one alay my
fears, tell me that 24+ hours w/o sleep
isnt going to hurt me.

It's not, I was up 34hours yesterday.
I've been up for 56hours another time,
then you really start "losing" it but it
isn't dangerous. Atleastnot 24hours

Orchidsamurai, I can relate to you
perfectly
i've been up for 5 days until today and
i'm losing it. It's so frustrating that I
can't help crying or standing up and
walking around the house because there's
nothing else I can do.
I've been given valium and tranxilium but
they do nothing. I just get sleepy but my
nervous system still goes crazy (i have
lots of strong nerves in my stomach, chest
and throat that will stay there throughout
all the day no matter what I do). I try
to lay down but the anxiety gets even
worse. I fear nighttime and can't stand
the thought of laying in my bed, though
i'm dying to get some sleep
any suggestions? Any meds? Or whatever.
I'm willing to try anything since i've
made an appointment with some doctors but
the sooner they can visit me is next week.
I've already been 3 times at the er these
past days and they did nothing. I'm
seriously devastated and the thought of
having to wait 3 days... Is unbearable.

hi orchidsamurai
not 24 hr w/o sleep is much harmful for
you as you tell us about. But if you are
thinking continue and not able to stop and
it may anxiety then you have to take some
medical treatment because once on the net
I have read an article on the site http://www.Medical-health-
care-information.Com/encyclopedia/anxiety/
anxiety.Asp about the anxiety, that in
the time of anxiety the emotions we feel
are based on the release and reuptake of
neurotransmitters in the brain, and your
brain is not concentrate because you not
sleep till 24 hr so you need to take some
medicine or go to medical consultant
because its not harmful if you are careful
but if you are careless then it will very
harmful for your health and career. So
need to take it very seriously. And take
care.
