Only if it was strictly REM sleep. Lucid dreaming would be an "advanced hobby" and I'd be able to brag about it. Har har har.

Oh, and I believe you can buy pills online that artificially recreate some of the chemical effects of sleeping, so you can bypass sleep for a few days. No, it isn't meth. :x

Hi,

All my spare time is spent on sleeping,infact i am too fond of sleeping clocking 8 hours every night.I want to reduce it by atleast 3 hours so that i can get more time to work and enjoy.
Can you suggest me some good pills,which are effective and could be easily procured online.

Sleep technically already isn't required. I don't think you'd die without getting any sleep, you'd just feel like a zombie 24/7.

I think you would die of lack of sleep.. perhaps not directly but lack of sleep causes your inmune system to weaken amonst other things.

Yes, because otherwise I'd run out of things to do and get insanely bored.

Yes, I love sleeping and wouldn't want to be without it. However, I wouldn't mind if I didn't need food. Living on tea would be perfect for me.
