I think that the stress and lack of sleep are starting to get to me. I am worse off than usual today. I think I was experiencing some mild hallucination just before I went to bed around 7:30 this morning.
I’m still kind of out of it. I feel drunk–uncoordinated, blurry vision, grogginess, kind of like I’m in a cloud.
I realized while taking my shower that, apparently, my brain is convinced that my washcloth, and possibly my left and right hands, are spies and double-agents for the softer side of clean. I’m starting to believe it too.
I nicked my lip shaving yesterday, and I keep touching and poking at it out of nervous habit. It’s just getting worse. I need to stop it.
My eyes are burning. I need to make it to 4:00pm today. Jebus, I need relief.
Damn, I know how that is.
I haven’t had hallucinations yet.
I don’t know how many more projects, papers, and readings I can take.
My whole semester was kinda light all the way through,
but now here at the end, it has piled up way beyond what
I originally imagined.
Plus, I have somehow lost the ability to sleep in.
Ah, the land of insomnia…had it my whole life…runs in my family. Couldn’t stay asleep as a child and about 8th that switched and then I couldn’t fall asleep. I have had many the hallucinations. Good luck with that my friend.
well, it’s not the first time that lack of REM sleep has caused some brain abnormalities for me, but i was just surprised how quickly it set in this time. that’s why i attribute it to stress as well and not just lack of sleep.
