There are a couple out there already but I assume with this one they want it to be legal. Haha really this sounds like they were high and figured they could trick people by resaling street drugs for medicinal purposes.

I wonder how they kept the monkeys awake?

Must have been fucked up

(im guessing they couldnt use any other drugs to keep them awake because that ads a new variable)

The mind needs rest tbh.

It'd be weird living life continuously though, instead of in day length chunks.

Well it might wake up your brain, but your body and muscles still need to rest.

TBH, how bored would you get if you didnt sleep?

and what about having dreams? what about waking up beside your gf? what about the relaxation, lying in your bed?

anti-sleep drugs might be useful for situations, when maximum attention over longer time periods is needed... pilots, drivers, hardcoregamerwithnolife....

Sleep also cleans the brain and filters out all the pointless shit you don't care about.

According to the theories out, notable the "sleep-repair" theory... I don't see how this would work, as sleep is a vital time for your body to perform it's maintenance.

Though I guess it wouldn't replace sleep...
