I worked for a period of my life (around two years) a sustained 100+ hour workload (real work). I literally did nothing but work, eat and work, and sleep seven days a week. The only times I didn’t work was in the bathroom.
I didn’t get physically ill or burn out, but I slowly started to drift away from reality. The quality of my judgment calls started to decline and while never doing anything outright crazy, I did and said things that in hindsight were very strange.
One of the side effects of this is I had no idea what happened in the world in that time. To this day I am still learning about historical events that happened in that two year period that continue to amaze me.
