How can I stay awake if I have to finish a term paper or something. I already been trying caffeine but its wearing off.
I try staying awake to finish term papers a lot.
Keep the lights on so that you don't think of it as night time.
Too much caffeine will make you hyper, but just enough will keep your brain stimulated enough to stay awake.
Try sleeping a lot the night before and take a nap that day so you aren't as tired at night. Try to do all your research before hand so that all you need to do it put it all together.
Do your citations and stuff the next day. A lot of people say power naps help, but for me if I were to lie down I would stay asleep all night.
Whatever works for you.
