meth overloads the dopamine producers in the brain and can seriously damage/destroy them, lack of sleep is not the biggest problem

All dopaminic drugs do this. Cocaine, crack, marijuana, etc.
Trust me, I do a lot of drug research, literary and otherwise. The lack of sleep produces much more delirium than the lack of dopamine does. All the d2 receptors do is make it harder for them to be happy. The paranoia and the hallucinations are all from lack of sleep.

Einstein and Da Vinci used the uberman sleep schedule
i myself tried it for a week, before AP/SAT/FINALS cram for 11th grade
it was alright... it was like i was really high
but it catches up to you, i was out like a light for an entire day, not to mention i was fucked up in the head for about 2 weeks and i went though sleep paralysis and hallucinations ; common symptoms of sleep deprivation
but it was worth it
3 on english (fuck you paper over pennies!?because we all care about if the penny should be removed or not!)
and 4 APUSH
and ~2100 on SAT
although i bombed by calc final i still passed! woo~
;edit;
but after reading that blog, i only used it for 5 days and apprantly those first few days are the hardest.. ?( Either way . . . anyone under 18 shouldn't try this, GG ur IQ if you do) u know, but dire situations call for drastic measures

Whats the relation between your IQ, being under 18 and trying this?
|
I think if your IQ is under 18, you don't have the requisite capacity for abstract thought to know what sleep is.

Absolutely nothing. The only added risk if you're under 18 (aka not an adult) is you could still have growing to do, and sleep deprivation can have negative effects on that.

My friend went on this sleep schedule for a quarter. He was my lab partner (working on big projects together all quarter) so I was able to see how he was doing. He seemed alert and able to think clearly. He said it felt like running off 6 hours of sleep, though I think it got better with time. Even after the quarter was over he continued to be on this schedule over thanksgiving break. He switched back to normal sleep the next quarter, though he said he kind of regretted that.

this has been done before, a lot, actually. not the same way, but the same concept. the results vary. most people went batshit insane, then got some rest. a couple people went batshit insane, then were fine. not sure if any just toughed it up the whole way. i am diagnosed with a severe case of insomnia myself (cant take meds cause of medicinal allergies) and get very little sleep regularly. im sure ive had stretches like this at one point or another for quite a while so i wouldnt be surprised if the guy makes it for however long his goal is.

during the school year i usually ended up sleeping 2-3 hours per night and then taking 1-3 hour nap in the afternoon when I got home (provided i didn't have to go to work, which was 1-3 days during the school week, and if I did go to work I would not take the nap at all). My GPA was a 3.9 with several AP courses, with a schedule consisting of minimal (minimal = none lol) studying and maximal starcraft time. I never really felt that tired unless i became bored and sat on my bed or something, where I would pretty much fall asleep in like 2 minutes tops, and I had a bad habit of sleeping through my classes at school (sucks a lot when teachers grade for fucking participation), and at night as soon as my head hit the pillow I was out (usually around 3-4 am and waking up around 7am or so).

The term "Da Vinci sleep" is often used as a synonym for polyphasic sleep. . . .

Doesn't make it not bullshit. There's pretty solid proof neither of those guys were on this sleep schedule, *especially* Einstein.

Your brain is complete long before 18. The only problem with being less than 18 (although it would be more accurate at like 22) is that your body can still be growing. (That means you could still get taller, etc., not that your brain is still growing.)

I think certain people may be able to adhere to this program and have success but the average person will just mess themselves up. From what little I know about sleep I know that you need to achieve REM or something like that in able to help your body recover and you only get into that stage of sleep after being unconscious for over half an hour or at least longer than a 20 minute nap.
On the other hand I've heard taking a 15 minute nap mid-day is more restful than taking an hour long nap because the hour long nap makes your body think you're going to be asleep for the long haul so when you interrupt it your body is like "no I want 7 more hours."
1500!

you can't start doing the uberman sleep schedule a week before your finals and expect to be acclimated
if you had done it like 2 months before your finals you would have been set.
ive had a friend do the uberman before, he said it worked great, but if you miss 1 single nap youre fucked lol
