      Sleepless.

      I’m guessing either something that stopped him from going to sleep has to do. Or meth.

        The suspect’s wife said he hadn’t slept in three days. So we presumed his mental health was affected.

        I’ve experienced bouts of being awake for more than 36 hours (I think there’s even a time I’ve been awake for 72 hours–my memory of that time is really fuzzy), and I can attest that at such times I’m irritable and yet slow to react at the same time. It’s a really strange state of mind to be in.

        I am guessing, just out of my ass, that some kind of mania (a manic episode) is involved.

        Regardless, I hope this incident leads to the man getting the help he needs.

          My personal record is 30hrs straight. Mabuti nakauwi na ko bago magshut down yung katawan ko. Tapos tulog 14hrs straight.

            Buti na lang! I can’t imagine doing anything remotely productive at such situations too.

            And that 14h recharge, lol! At my worst, I’ve had days where I’d sleep for around 18 hours (after being awake for ~30 hours), even got to a 24h+ sleeping spree, but the feeling after such a long sleep, not that great either. Parang nakukulangan pa ako sa tulog.

            It’s just unhealthy: too much wakefulness and too much sleep.

      Ika nga nila, “anuhin mo na ang lasing, wag lang ang bagong palaging gising.”

      I may have had learned the wrong version of the saying. 😂
