    Let's make an Insomniac, /tg/.

    Your name isn't important right now. I just need you to answer some questions. You can answer truthfully or come up with a story on your own for the purposes of this thread; unless you decide to attach a name to your post, you will remain anonymous:

    What's your damage, /tg/? What's been keeping you awake in the long hours of the night? Why can't you sleep?

    Lost ideas. When I go to sleep, I can finally focus on one thing, it usually gives me super dream powers and shit, but hey, that's how the story goes. However, unlike when I'm awake, I can't make original stuff. It's complex, but now-a-days I have enough backlogged that I can dream finally. But before, I used to stay up for nights on end because of ideas I haven't fully hammered out, or stories that I still have bouncing around in my head.

    The half-formed thoughts that die when I go to sleep are what keep me up anon. The half-formed dream characters that suffer a fate worse then death; To be never made and forgotten by morning.

    Nazi Ghost Zombie Snow Vampires. Or rather, the fear that they're coming to get me. It's irrational, it's stupid, I don't even live where it snows, real Nazis are all dead, and a ghost-zombie-vampire is just silly. But it's still terrifying.

    Because when I do, I don't want to wake up.

    I'd like to say it was the caffeine. Just helped my friend start a coffee shop. Way too much espresso all day long. Might even say it's the stress of trying to get the business off the ground. But I'm pretty sure that's not it.

    Really, right now, I'd say it was thinking about Her.

    I hate sleep. It feels good, it's nice, but there are so many things I want to do and so little time to do them when other obligations come into play. I'll fight sleep as much as possible, and only give in when I can't hold my head up anymore.

    Restless mind, a million thoughts a second. Thinking of past events, new ideas to make my future brighter. A never ending desire to create. I stay drowsy all day, and as soon as the sunset i get a burst of energy and the never end processing of thoughts begins.

    These are all good, /tg/. We're making progress. Moving on:

    What is happening to you? This will most likely be fictional, but can also be an account of something that has been happening to you. What triggered your insomnia and cranked your stress up to 11 before breaking off the knob?

    Well, up until recently, things were under control. She had her separate life with her boyfriend. I had mine here alone. Until a few weeks ago.

    She decided she wanted to take ballroom dance lessons. She's pretty tall. 6'2". She also decided that she should take these lessons with a guy who's taller than she is, so it didn't look so awkward. Well, I'm just a smidge taller than she is, and the tallest of all of our mutual friends, so, naturally she asked me to take these lessons with her.

    Seems fine enough in the beginning. But, just the act of dancing. Of holding hold her so close. Of smelling her hair. It started awakening old feelings. The ones I thought I'd buried.

    Now. She's been haunting my dreams.

    The Nazi Snow Zombie Vampire Ghosts turned out to be real. More or less. They've been stalking around outside my house, outside where I work, where I eat. ANd the temperature's ungodly cold this year. THere's even signs it'll snow in a few weeks. I"m terrified.

    I dare not sleep, for all your sakes. When I sleep...something else wakes up.

    I've held off for so long, but even the day grows dark now. I dread to think what will happen when I hang my head, and rest for good.

    My break was triggered by losing my job, my home and soon after the woman I loved.

    I cannot sleep, because when I sleep, I dream of what was. I dream of my smiling coworkers, the old man in the sandwich shop I went to everyday, the smell from the market as I walked past in the morning, reading my paper.

    But most of all...

    I think of her.

    In my dreams I was looking for something. My heart or soul or the thing that makes my mind me. Then, when I found it, it started chasing me. Instead of chasing me OUT it chased me deeper into my mind. Now whenever I sleep I'm burried under miles of snow, and something is burrowing towards me

    She walked into the room and we made love. Like we used to. Except something was...wrong. She was too violent. Speaking in weird languages. And she left out the door to the left. There is no door to the left.
    That was when I woke up.
    And that was when I saw the door remained.

    Something clicked, everyone says its the 13th hour. Musta been.
    I like it though, everything seems so much more real, so much more dangerous.
    I have noticed something, things decay when I look at them, its getting worse. I can cause flesh to rot on the bone just by looking at it.
    It's getting worse. So much worse.
    I cant look at things without this unnatural decay taking hold, my hands have the rot. It hasnt gotten worse yet. If I lose control just one more time, I dont know what will happen, who I'll look at, what will be left of me.
    There's so much wrong and I cant slow down to sleep, the Tackmen will get me.

    My sleep renders no rest. My dreams filled with Passion, Shame, and Blood. The three beats of my nightly Waltz. One, inevitably leading to the next.

    We embrace, we kiss. He walks in on us. He lies crumpled on the floor. She kisses me again.

    It just gets more and more real. Like the volume is in some kind of crescendo. The tempo increasing at an alarming rate.

    The less I sleep, the longer my dreams have to take before reaching the climax. The less I sleep, the more control I know I have. I can resist these urges when I'm awake. The less I sleep, the more I can be sure I'm not hurting anyone.

    The less I sleep, the more sane I am.

    That's what I tell myself.
