I've fasted up to 5 days. It's an interesting experience but I wouldn't recommend it. The only really interesting thing to say about it is that by day 3 I had entered the calmest period of my life. I'm prone to depression and anxiety, have meditated extensively, weaned off coffee...whatever you can think of apart from hard drugs I have done. Never felt so at peace looking at a wall for hours, total absence of intruding thoughts. Just immersed in a warm pool of grey space. Only stopped at 5 days because it was affecting my sex life. I know people who have fasted for a month, no big deal once you get going.
