So basically yesterday I was sick the whole day so I slept from morning till night and woke up at like 8 pm. After that I couldn't sleep all night 🙁
Now I'm in school on my laptop and I'm so tired 🙁
Any tips on staying awake?
I know that I can easily fake sick and go home but I do not wish to since I have a test today and I can't miss it.
I feel like I'm gonna faint soon...T^T
There's a store in my school with some drinks and food...
Will drinking coke help me stay awake or eating something maybe...like sugar?
I have no idea 🙁 Please help me! T^T

when i want to stay awake for studies i do this:
whenever i start feeling sleepy, i take a 30 min break and do something interesting(read a book,manga,watch a movie,go online etc etc) and then go back to studying until i feel sleepy again i'll take another 30 min break then go back to studying...i keep doing this until i finish all homeworks and studying
it works for me but idk if it will work for you

No matter how much I want or need to keep studying, when I can't take it anymore I just sleep so I can be alert as possible when taking a test. And while I'm sleeping, I go over everything in my mind. If you insist on staying awake, having snacks and taking ten minute breaks works for me.

Lol if i do this i end up neglecting what i was originally doing. That's why when i used to play mmorpgs in highschool my grades started going down lol.
Unless you have health issues you should ask to go to the bathroom but instead go outside and run as fast as you can for like 2-3minutes if you don't mind people looking at you and wondering what you're trying to do.

but sometimes i just have to read the next chapter if there is a cliffhanger at the end 😛

just perservere (once u are pass the peak of drowsiness,u wunt feel drowsy anymore) i have spent 2 weeks without have more than 1hour of sleep a day.. because of some stupid exams...terrible experience. Like when u are hungry and u try to hold it in, after a while, u wont feel hungry anymore. Oo... hahas, u go take a short break and come back to continue studying 🤣 🤣 .. Nap is a nono for me --> 1 hours nap = sleep all the way to morning =.=

I have the same problem with manga but it's not as bad as games, well i hardly play anymore...
And if i'm reading the post right i think she's talking about staying awake while in class, not at home, so i would assume reading a manga would get you in trouble lol.

it is simple:
2-aminoethanesulfonic acid + 1,3,7-trimethyl-1H-purine-2,6(3H,7H)-dione
3,7-dihydro-1,3,7-trimethyl-1H-purine-2,6-dione=
it is even simpler:

Energy drinks, energy shots, candy that's sugary, or better than that sour candy like War Heads works great when you work the grave yard shift

just sleep if you feel like sleeping. after that it will be ok.
some people only sleep a few minutes while sitting when they're tired and never really sleep (eg on the bed). that's how they cut sleeping time to 3-4 hours a day
