It was about 6 days. It was during college and I was at the peak of a manic episode fueled by alcohol, nicotine, and caffeine. I worked nights on the weekends and went from the beginning of my Sunday night shift through my Friday night shift. I went to my classes during the day, hopped from one party to the next at night until everyone else passed out, then just drove through all of the back country roads we have while everyone else was asleep. In the first couple of days I had auditory hallucinations and 3-4 days in there were shadow people. By the end of the week it was hard to tell if I was awake or dreaming. Surprisingly when I finally slept it was only for like 13 hours and I made it back in for my Saturday night shift.
