Subscriber nudge+ Posted May 24, 2022 Subscriber Share Posted May 24, 2022 Yes! As mentioned in another thread, if sleep wasn't a physiological necessity, it would be great to have more free time to do stuff instead of just sleeping through it. I literally have to force myself to go to bed every night (well it's usually early morning by then, but you get the idea). I like to run errands, do grocery shopping, have lunch, go for a hike or a walk, visit some places, meet some people, etc during the day, and then work until 12-1am. After that, I like to do some reading, learn new stuff, keep up to date with stuff, do some research, watch movies or TV series or racing, indulge in other hobbies, then after that it's time to relax with a drink and music. Gets even more complicated when I'm in a relationship. Ideally, I would love to have double the time for the things I do after work... So yeah, definitely a massive YES from me.

Rucksackfranzose Posted May 24, 2022 Share Posted May 24, 2022 To be able to do something doesn't necessarly imply to be forced to do so. Therefore I can see no downside as long as I still had the option to sleep for recreational purposes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Subscriber Viva la FCB+ Posted May 24, 2022 Subscriber Share Posted May 24, 2022 As someone that never gets enough sleep and is always tired, yes sign me up. (also i voted no before reading what you said in the post, sorry im tired ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrator Stan Posted May 24, 2022 Administrator Share Posted May 24, 2022 Probably not. No side effects if no sleep but would you still experience the tiredness of anything you do during the day or being awake? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No side effects if no sleep but would you still experience the tiredness of anything you do during the day or being awake? Well that obviously would be a side effect, no?... The way I understand this hypothetical scenario, you could still get tired from physical activity etc, but your body wouldn't need sleep to recover.

Subscriber CaaC (John)+ Posted May 25, 2022 Subscriber Share Posted May 25, 2022 I like the way I am doing it (sleep) at the moment anyway, I cat-nap a lot and when I do sleep then it's more like 4 hours solid then wake up, I either nod back off just snoozing really, maybe I am related to a shark Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Which part of "no side effects" people don't understand?... it's a hypothetical scenario in which your body and mind don't need the sleep and you can stay awake forever without suffering any consequences.
