It all depends on the person. In the military you develop capacity to withstand long hours without sleep. 20 years ago I could go without sleep for 6 days before hallucinations. now 2 days is enough for me to hallucinate lacking sleep. This means the capacitiy is reduced with age.

∙ 13y agoyep. After about 72 hours, you begin to have micro-naps, where your brain begins to shut down for short periods of time (usually 30 seconds) where you're dreaming while you're awake. I tried this and I saw things that werent there, heard voices even thought i was alone. Scary stuff

∙ 12y agoI have read you can hallucinate anywhere from 3 to 4 days without sleep, I'm going on 2 days without sleep right now and I'm doing fine, the only way to really find out for sure is to test your body itself everybody is different, if you go longer then 2 weeks without sleep it WILL result in death
