It's a profound feeling.. IDK what's going on.. I can't focus, or even see straight. I can't even keep my neck fully upright, it kinda droops to either side..
I can't tell if my sentences are righto...

Blasphemy!
Jodorowski claimed that he did not sleep for a week before beginning filming "The Holy Mountain"
That, I can believe.
But, seriously, a writer friend of my mother's, John Bowers, wrote a fascinating book called "The Land of Nyx"

You kind of have this strange feeling of just being crap.
Although for me I am fairly fine. I get a little bit shaky but once I get going and active I act fairly normal, even past the 30 hour mark.

And then there was college, which involved many all-nighters. -_- The worst was spending 30+ hours in a row finishing a lab report, turning it in, and then attending the 5 hour lab for the next experiment. Falling asleep on the heat exchangers... :blank: (and that was a regular thing, not just once :( )

I was in the Navy, and on deployments it wasn't abnormal to be awake for 36+ hrs. Granted, most of that was self inflicted with Halo 3/DOTA sessions, but it still happened.
Hah, serious busy times in the US Navy then? :P

I went 72+ hours (it was probably around 76) one finals week. (no caffeine) I felt like my soul was leaving my body. It was strange, I literally hurt everywhere. I can do 48+ hours on a regular basis with no caffeine or other stimulants, but 76 was my longest straight stretch. A few weeks ago I went 7 days with a sleep total of 14 hours. There is a rare gene that allows some people to live off of less sleep than others, and I'm pretty sure I have that gene. I've seriously considered switching my Circadian sleep rhythm to an Everyman sleep cycle.
My dad napped twice, 3 hours each, over a one week period as he finished his thesis. I don't have that gene. Son of a gun also took the beard gene with him. Can't grow one to save my life :(

Which, in case of flying to the other side of the world, means 48 hours without sleep. The hallucinating and constant adrenaline high are awesome though.
Two years ago I went clubbing in Berlin for a week and slept a total of 16 hours Sunday to Sunday. (No drugs, no coffee) Last year I went back again together with a friend and he was surprised at the amount of sleep I needed.
In fact, seeing as how coffee, certain drugs and other stimulants often work by releasing all of your bodies' reserves in one go it might be better to go without if you have to stay awake. I used to have these severe crashes after drinking coffee for example.
The trick is to keep going. Have a dull moment and you will fall asleep.

I find clubbing really hard at the moment... most of the clubs I used to love have been destroyed/changed and the rest of the clubs I've found are full of children...

There are some really good clubs though in larger cities. Berlin for example has clubs that won't let you in if you are below 24. And the more extreme ones have a great mix of 20-somethings, older ravers and 60 (!) year old hippies that love techno. XD
It's all about having fun so the atmosphere is really nice and laid back.
Though to be honest, Brits in clubs... they are not fun people. Either you run into 14 year old girls that are wasted and want to **** (no thanks) or guys that are so hopped up on booze and peer pressure that they feel like they need to fight everyone.

I think that this is true. But if you drink coffee daily, you become addicted and need to wean yourself off.
Just "not drinking coffee" for one day will create even bigger problems, including headache and fatigue.

When I visited LAN Parties on more regular basis I'd do the usual 36 hours without sleep. There'd be a period somewhere between 4 and 6 in the morning where I'd be totally knackered, as soon as that was over I was fine.

Yeah I would love to travel to Germany and experience techno there.
Though the clubs I would go too where literally as underground as I could manage, so the 14yr old girls and chavs wern't such an issue... the biggest issue was guys who spend all day at the gym to look hench as **** only to then stand around on the dance floor bulling everyone they see and harassing women...

I can usually make it past the 24 hour mark with no issues. As soon as I pass 30 hours, I start to hallucinate. Used to be able to hit the 36 hour mark no problem in high school...I may have had a gaming problem.
I can make it to 36 hours and then I have the problems OP described. I can go somewhere between 48 and 72 hours before I begin hallucinating and acting like a mental patient. I once went for 2 weeks sleepless (severe caffeine and school work problem) which led to a hospital stay. I only really need 3 hours of sleep or so to be completely functional even now.
