    I believe I answered your question whem you had been awake for 3 days. You said you had been halucinating. This was a clear sign that your brain was crying out for rest. Seek medical help at once. have a close friend or relative take you to the emergency room. You could die, YES DIE! Is this a serious enough side effect for you to finally take some action?? If you have no friends or relatives call 911. Even if you have no insurance or hate doctors i am sure they can help you.
