Great replies so far everyone!
I'd just like to add that I'm definitely no angel in this category either. In fact I didn't sleep Saturday night this weekend at all, and went to bed 8.30pm last night. So yeah, not judging anyone who does it!! :D
This weekend was a very rare one for me though, and it still doesn't alter my feelings on the topic. I only don't sleep when I can't , never purposefully just for the hell of it.
One of the things I was curious about when I posted this topic was the potential for long-term effects from continuous sleep deprivation. The thing about personality change is interesting. Are there any possible neurotoxic effects (purely related to lack of sleep?). Could it trigger depression? Are the neurotoxic effects of a drug like say, meth, increased when the brain is not rested?
Anyone know?
