Sleepless.
I'm guessing either something that stopped him from going to sleep has to do. Or meth.
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.~~
EDIT:
Shit, kulang pa ako sa gising. Damn. I'm sorry. Pagkakaintindi ko kanina, nabaril lang.
24 ang nagawa ko, and I have to say I don't want to to it again. I've become more assertive when it comes to sleep time now. Di ko mapakawalan ang 8 hours sleep time, 1 to 4 hours if shit really needs to be done, but I still have to sleep somehow.
On recharge time, I only remember once na natulog ako ng 6 am and woke up around 9 or 10 pm (?) that evening. Luckily I didn't feel dizzy or anything, but quite well rested. Hungry AF tho.
On a sort of relevant note, this was around the time I stumbled upon the sickness Fatal Familial Insomnia (FFI), which is basically a disorder that can be passed down wherein the affected person dies slowly because they can't sleep.
Source is WebMD. That's like a terrible death sentence for a family.
Scary shit.
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.
