- Having trouble staying awake when you need to get work done?
Feel like taking a nap but end up passing out?
Don’t worry, we’ve all been there.
In order to keep up with our increasingly fast paced society, teens should be getting on average 8 to 10 hours of sleep a night while adults should be sleeping around 7 to 9 hours. However, most people aren’t getting nearly enough sleep.
The most common go-to when we feel tired is downing cups of coffee, redbull or other energy drinks, anything to help us stay awake in the moment. But this can lead to huge health problems down the road if we consume too much caffeine -- such as dehydration, headaches, nausea, and tremors. The effects of caffeine also wear off after several hours, in some cases, leaving you more tired than you were before.
But there are so many better ways to stay up than drowning yourself in caffeine until your blood turns into coffee!
Tips to Staying awake:
Exercise! Not only does exercise improve quality of sleep, but studies show that exercising is also more effective in energizing the body than some sleep medications.
Rather than eating sugary snacks that can eventually lead to a “sugar crash”, stock up on snacks high in protein.
Even better than eating snacks or protein bars, moving around and making conversation with other people also helps your mind stay active and focused. Avoid staying in one place or sitting in one position for too long in order to keep your blood pumping!
Just can’t resist the lure of sleeping? Taking a 5-25 min nap can help prevent fatigue, enhance alertness, and retain memories. You also feel refreshed after waking up. Just make sure you set alarms so you don’t oversleep!
Finally, staying hydrated is extremely important because dehydration can lead to fatigue, confusion, and fainting. Made of 60% water, our bodies use H2O to transport nutrients to all parts of our body.
It’s important to remember these methods aren’t a cure-all for not getting enough sleep. The best way to not feel tired during the day is to get the proper amount of sleep at night! What are some ways you guys stay awake when you’re feeling tired and just want to pass out? Tell us in the comments below!

@@otay3865 Bruh same I'm such a heavy sleeper
@@otay3865 no cap
That is advice until I accidentally sleep for a whole day
I work 12 hour graveyard shifts.
To get through a shift on almost no sleep you need to:
Walk around consistently.
Listen to music or watch videos.
Turn the heat off and the air conditioning on.
20 push-ups and 20 sit-ups every few hours to wake up the body.
Drink energy drinks, coffee, or both.
Thanks amigo real life saver
Those energy drinks can be unhealthy, but you gotta do what you gotta do.
i just started a job working from 10pm to 7am. i'm clearly bad at it as i get so sleepy once i sit for about 1 hour
Energy drink and coffe will squeze your heart to death. Small amount of coffe before 1 hr when u think u fall asleep is ok.
Hello isn't hot humid weather helpful in staying awake how does air conditioning works to stay awake??
this video sent me straight to sleep
lol

Lol
I'm 100% sure people who were sleepy at the moment they are watching this video
@@slicedbread0841 yes.
Nap
Cold shower
*coffee*
Exercise
Apples(they’re the coffee of fruit)
Stay hydrated
Don't forget crystal meth and cocaine
After the coffee drink shitloads of wster
I took a nap
And slept 11 hours
Most important.

blueberries actually also contain caffeine properties without actually containing any caffeine. I tried it to stay up for a football game. Let me tell you… That thing worked…
Im getting 4 hours of sleep today and Im in seventh grade :(
updates:
guys i keep getting replies to this so im giving a mini update, i already graduated high school & my sleep & study habits improved immensely (i was an extreme procrastinator) bcs i realized that not matter how much hwk, not sleeping enough was usually never worth it. it sometimes even resulted in performing worse on tests, not understanding lessons, becoming unproductive the whole day, being in a bad mood, etc
i know it's not realistic to expect urself to sleep enough every single day, but advice to anyone who may need it, alwayss try ur best to sleep as much as possible every day & organize ur day in terms of sleeping enough!! make sleeping a priority & a necessity in ur day schedule. try to make the most out of every day by incorporating breaks & naps as well! avoid coffee past 1pm & overnapping. we truly work, learn & problem-solve our best with enough sleep
I’m in the 7th grade too
I’m just surprised that my science teacher didn’t assign homework over Christmas Break. He doesn’t know how to teach.
omg 7th grade too but homeschooled been up for 20 hour i should of not done this D:
I get 2 hours of sleep I'm in seventh ☹️
sleep enough kid! You need to do that later so save it.
I’m getting around 2 hours of sleep and I’m in 4th grade.
How To Stay Awake:
Step 4: Go To Sleep
I would be asleep right now, but I may or may not have procrastinated til the last minute and now I’m gonna have to pull an all-nighter if I want to get everything done and memorised. As a wise person once said, “Cramming is key.”😌
Me rn
I have a rlly bad habit with procrastinating too cuz I procrastinate when to get ready for bed and I end up staying up later 😭
me rn doing my assignment😃
Fr I have my exam tomorrow and I procastinated so much today that it messed up my schedule. But still I am determined to do well tomorrow.
Once I’m asleep I can’t wake up for 12 hours ., help?
Mohammed Saqib always here it’s 6:28 and I haven’t slept yet x
Same i need help i wake up like 6pm the day after
You suffer from Hypersomnia. A case where you feel tired so much that you could sleep at anytime. At school, while driving, at the office. It could happen anytime. Once your asleep you might sleep for an extended period of time more than 7-8 hours. Some people sleep 10 hours or more.
12?????
Facts Tho
I normally wash my face to stay awake and drink cold drinks like slurpies I usually do homework or do activities I like while watching some videos on youtube and sometimes I went to play some games because it normally makes me hyped 💗
I do the same (I don't drink cold drinks or slurpies) but mah mom would kill meh if she finds out that I do this things while studying and I have mah last exam tomorrow and its like 12 am and I am watching this trying to stay awake
How can i take a nap when I sleep through 20 alarms, all three minutes apart and all of them are scream metal like Scarlxrd...
Same problem

@@MahathiManasaGowriSalapu nope. I have to rely on my alarms that has to wake my family to go wake me up.
@@hotmilo same girlie
@@MahathiManasaGowriSalapu sad boi vibes
@@hotmilo oh
Very useful and effective, I'm about to sleep now thanks
I am working on a story and I am an night thinker I don't have time at day time tho (u know.... online classes,break,dance,singing,rapping,sport,study and social) I wanna stay up at night to write my story. Thank I hope this helps me 😊💜🙂
That's not true everybody is different some people only need 6 hours of sleep and can feel refreshed kinda rare but it all depends on your body. There are no certain amount of sleep everyone needs because it's different for everyone.
There are some people who can't sleep and in the mornings are fully energized.
Maximum 8 hrs of sleep needed..
I can sleep for an hour and feel refreshed.
Its me......if i have a 6 hours sleep, i am refreshed.....but i didn't think it is rare.
Them: telling nice methods to stay awake
Me: drinking coffee
Same w me but I’m just drinking monster 👁👄👁
me at 12 AM: this video should help me

I cant fight the feeling the inviting feeling of taking a nap everytime i close my eyes its inviting me to dream world
When it's 4am and you have loads of lessons for today and lmao i have hypersominia and I have missed lessons before when I went to sleep so yup it's an important lesson so I'm not risking it

The adults around me share a bag of white glassy stuff idk what it is but they stay up for 4 to 10 days!

Nowadays I randomly fall asleep when I get back from school and normally that doesn’t happen to me. I have been trying to snap out of it for a while but hopefully this helps
Watching this video is making me fall asleep 😴
I’m barely getting 2 hrs of sleep due to exams and I’m 15
Same 😩😩
Well, you must be 17 now. Are you getting more sleep?
Here how I dont sleep as a student:
Listen to rap music
Give your self a 5 minute break everytime you for for 15 minutes
Turn on Air Conditioning
Dring Chicken Broth, Energy Drinks, or Coffee
Eat protien Bars
Stay hydrated
Wash you face with Cold Water Every 30 minutes
Hope This Helped!
Yes I also do the same. Drinking coffee and listing to rap songs but is the 5 min rest after every break is worthit?
I only got 3 hours of sleep last night, I feel like shit, I just need to stay up for another hour or two because if I pass out now I’m going to wake up at like 4 or 5
How is watching to stay awake in muharram
I sleep a lot nearly 14 hrs still I'm felling sleepy
What I do is splash my face with water then listen to really upbeat music
I either. Nap over the day or sometimes drink coffee
This is a great idea and all of them work
Today I got none
I program/code, so I have to stay in one place at one time, the only way I can stay awake is sugar. The napping part, I can't do since I have to get work done, but nice tutorial!
I’m getting 10 mins of sleep like everyday no cap
Anyone else weirdly watching this struggling to sleep rather than struggling to stay awake?
Tomorrow is my science exam I don't have I am in stress

What you want to do is you see the dumb in the index finger then you feel the soft spot you squeeze as hard as you can then they'll keep you awake and you be straight awake and the next one is going out jogging Bellevue really good for your body will keep you awake be like really good in the other one is this one this one is better so either walk out of your room keep on going back and forth back and forth. I'll keep you awake a little bit and then I'll say this next one will be better if you want to stay awake Town tees and then watch some Lil TH-cam if you're getting tired get you see where your head is right like why your ears like 3 feet up you see that she'll that almost soft spot you move it around a little bit then I'll make you awake cuz I watch this from a TH-cam video he's the best person in the world bye bike hope that keeps you awake in buying a bike ride in it will keep you awake bye-bye
