In July 2005, I had the symptoms of a heart condition that no one believed or done any medical examinations on, which should happen as a ‘just in case factor’ in accordance to scientific methods, and so belief is irrelevant.
If I sat down, bent down, or lied down the wrong way; it led to cardiac arrhythmia; which I know now would have killed me if I have continued to risk myself that way. I felt the same way then.
I got refused treatment, and so because of the symptoms that I had, I was not able to sit down very much; and I could not go to sleep until I got something done about it.
With in 24 hours with no sleep, I started to get very lethargic and feeling run down.
With in 36 hours, it was hard to stand up, and my legs were like jelly.
After 48 hours sleep deprivation, I started to have hallucinations and slurred speech.
After 3 days with no sleep at all (72 hours), I was having problems knowing where I was, and what time of day it was etc.
I was nearly crying because of absolute exhaustion.
I accidentally fell asleep for 10 minutes, and was getting extreme palpitations as a result, so I stood up.
I was then awake even longer than that; was awake for a grand total of 122 hours (over 5 days and 5 nights), and I could not understand what room I was in, did not know left from right, had a crushing head ache, was going dizzy, and did not know how to navigate my own house.
I was totally delirius, I could feel my heart pounding and though that it was actually the sound of a train travelling and I thought that I was inside a space-ship at one time.
When I saw the doctors, totally exhausted, I got my medication; and the symptoms gradually went down over a few days.
I was able to sleep for 4 hours on the first night, which had a dramatically beneficial affect; then I started to get more normal hours sleep.
I have never known exhuastion like it.
If I had lied down and died, and I just gave up, would God be annoyed that I stopped trying?
Would you have stopped trying, thinking that there is nothing you can do, dispite thinking of your family and friends etc.
How should you try and deal with a situation like that?

I think you did the right thing, that’s what I would do.
This is why you don’t factor god into situations like this and instead your rely on common sense and people that know what they’re doing.
Glad you got the medication you needed and you’re feeling better.
After 4 days of no sleep, I do believe you would qualify for insanity. I know I would have gone crazy.
I would have stopped blindly risking my life and gone to see a doctor like a sane human being.
no God would not have been annoyed
i probably would have just let it happen and not fight it.
How is any of this God’s fault?
I’d let go and let God…
whoa. that was deep. I don’t think God would have been annoyed with you. Maybe He wants you in His kingdom already!
i’d live life to fullest, which might be difficult being in that situation, but i’d still try, and if it was sooo bad, i’d wanna give up too eventually, constant pain has to be a ***** to live with. why beat yourself up trying to endure things you dont have too? if its unbearable its not anyones fault for a logical response like giving up hope…and god wont care cuz he’s make believe
The will to live is very strong. There has to be a reason for that. I’ve heard worse stories then that of people doing outrageous things to survive. However I think if its God’s will, your will means squat. For instance lets say during that 10 minutes of falling asleep you didn’t wake up. Would God be annoyed? Probably not. It would just mean that 10 minute time was His time. Ever wounder why you woke up? God must not be finished with you yet. To coin a phrase- What ever doesn’t kill you makes you stronger.
I’m not sure how much pain I could with hold. Would I just lie down and die? No. Would I be strong enough to do what you did? Probably not.
