Binged all of Code Geass in three days last week and my sleep schedule is wrecked

I started watching Code Geass last Thursday night thinking I would just watch a couple episodes before bed. Fast forward to Sunday morning at 4 AM and I had finished both seasons plus the Akito movies. I don't know what happened, the cliffhangers just kept pulling me in and I couldn't stop. The chess strategies and mind games between Lelouch and Suzaku were so intense I found myself rewinding scenes just to catch all the details. Now I'm walking around work half asleep but I keep thinking about that ending and how it changed everything for me. Has anyone else gotten completely absorbed in a series like this where you just lose track of days?

Heard my buddy say he started Fullmetal Alchemist one Friday afternoon and didn't stop until he'd finished it all on Sunday night, missed two family dinners and a dentist appointment.

I mean, the dentist appointment thing is wild but missing two family dinners? That's a whole different level. Was this like a full weekend with no breaks, or did your buddy actually sleep at all? I'm trying to picture someone sitting through the whole Briggs arc without getting up to eat or use the bathroom or something. Like, did he even stop to process what happens to Nina Tucker or did he just power through that part too?
