Would you choose to not need sleep?

Greetings. I will be your waifu this season.

Say a pill was invented that completely changed your brain functions and allowed you to be up constantly, with no ill effects, would you take it or would you choose to keep sleep in your life?

All that extra time to do things...but on the other hand if you have nothing to do it could be hellish.


I think I'd probably go crazy from just how much that would disrupt my life but many could probably handle it.

If my body and brain were completely rewired so that I feel no ill-effects from not getting sleep (so not only do I not need it physically, but I also won't go stir-crazy or anything), then I honestly see no reason why somebody wouldn't opt to take the pill (Edit: I guess people in poverty wouldn't enjoy the prospect of extra time since they don't have the means to acquire things to stave off boredom). Even for people who love sleep, the only reason you love it is because you need it. It's not like food where there are different tastes, it's all based on necessity. If you don't need it, there's no reason to love it.

But yeah, I'd love this. I don't think I'd get bored, there's so many TV shows, books, films, games whatever to keep you occupied at night, and then if there are things in my life I need to get done, having that extra time to complete it would be such a luxury.

Even if we take the pill could we choose to sleep even if we don't need to? Or would we just never be able to sleep ever again?

Either way I would do it lol f*** sleeping

Sleeping gives a much needed break from the disappointment that is life.

I would sleep more, if I could.

My mind never needing a rest? I'd do it, more time for my hobbies and projects. That would be awesome.

Never be able to sleep again, you could rest with your eyes closed I suppose but no actual sleep.


I think it'd probably make me become a lazier piece of s*** because I'd have to just play tons of games and watch tons of TV to fill the gaps.

Sleep is a nice break from the world to me, regardless of it's physical and mental necessities.


Although imagine how much extra room you'd have in your house without the need for beds? That could be pretty cool.
So much space for activities!

I think I'd want to assuming there are no mental ill effects I would suffer. There's always stuff I want to do. Though with that said... Sleep kind of provides a beginning and end point to your day doesn't it? I wonder how my memory and experience would be effected in that case...

I agree with you and this may be why I would choose to continue to sleep. Also I have no clue what I would do with all the extra time. If I could give it a trail run, I would.

I love your new avatar/signature set.

If there were no ill effects mentally, wouldn't that also include negative effects on memory?

Ah, 6 more hours to explore. I'll take 'em. No ill effects means that I'm allowed a nap whenever I feel like it, too.

I like sleep; so no.
It allows me to shut down for a few hours and not have to deal with people.

Its funny to me when people say you aren't doing anything when asleep. Yeah, and that includes being aware of doing nothing.
