My friend and I made a bet about who can go longer without sleeping or drinking. I think I might be dying.

I hey everyone. I’ve never posted on no sleep before and this isn’t my story so forgive me. I wrote this as a throw away account because it involves my friend. I am only posting this so you can help me. My friend has been acting very strange for the past couple days and he won’t see a doctor. <br><br><br><br><br>My best friend and I have known each other since childhood. Because of this we know each others weaknesses. My biggest weakness is not being able to sit still and always moving. His is not being able to go without sleep or drinking. We decided to make a bet over who can go longer without our weaknesses. I assumed it would just be a fun joke, but things haven’t been going great so far. <br><br>We made the bet at 10 o’clock at night. We decided to stay at my house because it’s bigger. We set our phones and put them in the fridge. We then decided to play a board game. 5 hours later I was getting extremely tired. I finished the board game and then said good night. I crawled into bed and shut my eyes. I couldn’t fall asleep. I tossed and turned for at least an hour before I got up. That’s when the pain really started. My head hurt so bad and I’m so tired. I went to the kitchen and then I remembered the bet. I thought hey, maybe I can get my friend to drink by drinking and he will break. That didn’t work. I made myself a drink and then when I was done I called out his name. Usually he gets angry when you wake him up, but he didn’t answer. I said his name a little louder and then he moaned in anger. I saw him walking towards me. At first I noticed how out of it he looked. His eyes were sunken, his face looked pale, and his hair was greasy. When he made it to the kitchen he smiled and said “you can’t trick me. Now give me the bottle.” That’s when I noticed something really strange. His teeth looked like they were rotting. I don’t know how this could have possibly happened in only 5 hours. I assumed maybe he had some cavities he never told me about, or maybe he just had very bad teeth. I gave him the bottle and he finished it with only 2 sips. <br><br>“You know you can just stop the bet right?” I asked. <br><br>“Are you fucking with me? I thought you were just playing a joke on me and wanted me to drink. I’m not going to lose.” He said. <br><br>We went back to bed and once again I couldn’t sleep. It had been 8 hours since I had last slept and I just couldn’t sleep. I heard my friend walking around the house so I got up. This time he looked a little worse. His teeth were now completely black and his skin was starting to crack. I don’t mean crack like it had wrinkles, but more like it literally had cracks in it. His eyes looked almost like marbles, they were so sunken in. <br><br><br>“You think you can out last me? I’m going to win this bet.” He said. He sounded very out of it. <br><br>“Dude, do you need to go to the hospital?” I asked. <br><br>“No! I am not losing this stupid bet! You’re the one who looks bad. Why are you so twitchy all of the sudden?” He asked. <br><br>At that moment I realized I hadn’t twitched or moved in two days. I always have to move or I get extremely anxious. It was a little strange not to have to move. <br><br><br>“Can we play a game?” I asked. <br><br>“Depends, does it have anything to do with drinking?” He asked. <br><br>“No.” I said. <br><br><br>“Then it doesn’t interest me. I’m going back to bed. I’m tired.” He said. <br><br><br>I assumed he was just joking because it had been 10 hours since we made the bet. I went back to bed and once again I couldn’t sleep. I tossed and turned for another hour. At around 1 o’clock in the afternoon I got really hungry. I hadn’t eaten since dinner so I decided to make something really quick. At that moment my friend walked into the kitchen. <br><br><br>“You think you can trick me? Is that a bottle of liquor?” He asked. <br><br>“No. It’s just my dinner.” I said. <br><br><br>“Bull shit! Show me the bottle!” He yelled. <br><br><br>“I told you it’s not liquor! Now back off!” I yelled. <br><br><br>“Then show me! I don’t trust you!” He yelled. <br><br><br>I was so angry at this moment. I had never seen my friend act like this. I grabbed the bottle and threw it against the ground. It shattered and liquid spilled everywhere. <br><br><br>“Are you happy now? Now get out of my kitchen.” I yelled. <br><br><br>He looked at me in shock. After 30 seconds he started to cry. Not just cry, he was wailing. I didn’t know what to do. I stood there frozen watching my friend cry. After a couple minutes he stopped. He didn’t say anything. He just walked away. <br><br><br>It’s been almost 20 hours since we made the bet. My friend looks worse than ever. His teeth are gone, his skin is cracked everywhere, and his eyes are extremely sunken in. I’m terrified. I don’t know what to do. For some reason I’m not tired and my body is completely relaxed. I’m not even twitching a little bit. I don’t know what to do. I’m so worried for my friend and I don’t know how to help him.<br><br>EDIT: since my original post my friend is starting to get extremely violent. He keeps grabbing random objects and breaking them. He then smashes them all over the floor. He’s also saying extremely strange things. I couldn’t help but hear him talking to himself. He’s saying things like, “I will not lose.” “Drink.” “I need to drink so bad.” “Why can’t I drink?” I don’t know what to do. I’m scared. I don’t know what he’s going to do to himself or me. I’m going to update you all if I can. Wish me luck. <br><br>SECOND EDIT: My friend just tried to attack me with a knife. I’m hiding in my room right now. I’m so scared and my heart is racing. I don’t know what to do. I’ve never been so scared in my entire life. I don’t know how much longer I can stay in here. I’ve been in here for at least an hour. I don’t know what to do. I’m so scared. <br><br>THIRD EDIT: I think my friend is dead. I heard his head crack against the floor. I’m still hiding in my room. I’m so scared that he’s going to come through the door at any moment. I don’t know what to do. I’m just waiting for him to come through the door and hurt me. I hear footsteps coming from the hallway. Oh my god he’s coming through the door right now. I’m going to call the police. <br><br>LAST EDIT: The police came and picked us up. I’m currently posting this in the hospital. He’s going to survive, but they’re going to keep him in the hospital for a while. They didn’t tell me how long. They also said he was acting extremely violent towards the police. They said he was kicking and hitting them. I was not acting violent at all. I’m not as bad off as him. They said they will be keeping me here for the next 24 hours. This has been a really strange day.
