So i heard about this thing called, sleep wake where if you stay up for like 48 hours you might sleep 24 hours or if you sleep 72, you can sleep like you can sleep even longer, and it changed your cycle so you would only need to sleep like every 2 days, but for a whole day, so if you theoretically stay up for 2-3 years with no sleep, (Theoretically So Pretend The No Sleep Doesn't harm/kill you) could you essentially sleep for a months or even a year? (WOULD THIS BE CONSIDERED A COMA? AND IF ITS JUST A CYCLE OFFSET , THEN WHY?!?!?)

Sleep deprivation will set in and total organ shutdown will occur after 11 days. No one knows why we need sleep. The only known factor is our bodies are energy. Burning that energy our vessels require more. Food and water are not enough alone. Your body absorbs energy while you sleep. Now you can sleep for as long as your body makes you sleep. Buy after 8 months your brain takes what is called "inactive deterioration" into affect. Your body self aware decides that you are immobilized for too long and begins to kill off the brain.
