Tried this in college. Also started hallucinating after four days. Kept getting motion in my peripheral vision. Another time I was up for about the same amount of time and at the end I just fell asleep while I was talking to people. Just shut down mid sentence like a narcoleptic.
My context is that I was doing something called a moot. It is a fake legal appeal. And something that you have to compete to do within a law school to do externally. And this was one of the prestigious external moots. So it is not something that is taken lightly. Generally you start writing right after Xmas break and have to hand in your paper (ie. factum) maybe the 1st of March and present it the next week or so. It is a solid 2 months work. Probably a forty page document with a few hundred sources. I can't remember exactly.
I was the student adviser, kind of like the captain of the 4 person moot team and the faculty adviser was lame. I kept telling her that one member was not doing shit but she would not do anything about it. Four days before the factum was due it turned out that one team member had not done shit. So I had to step in and do 2 months of work in four days. I did not leave the library. People brought me a coffee maker, food, clothes and smokes. People pulled shifts 24 hours a day in getting me resource material. Oddly enough, the factum won third place which was better than the fifth place I got the year before when I had 2 months to prepare.
