Pill - Freewrite

in #freewrite8 years ago

I'd been having a lot of trouble sleeping lately.

The doctor said it was pretty standard insomnia and that I should take a certain type of sleeping pill.

I don't really like taking pills so I was a bit hesitant at first.

These pills were large blue ovals that seemed to glow in the dark just a little bit.

I took the first one and I fell asleep in a few minutes.

The next day I felt a little bit foggy but I wasn't sure if the pill was the reason.

I called my doctor but she said that feeling a little bit dizzy is a standard side effect.

I told her that if I was going to feel dizzy all the time then maybe I shouldn't take the pills at all.

She assured me that it was pretty important to take these pills because without getting enough sleep you can actually die from sleep deprivation.

I thought that was a bit far fetched but at the same time I knew she was the doctor and I should listen to her.

I started writing down my thoughts in a thought journal so that I could remember them more easily.

I'm starting to to question a few things about reality itself.

My memory is certainly not what it used to be and I'm not even sure how I get through the day.

I know I have a job and that I have parents but I can't remember what that job is or who they are.

Every now and then a strange woman calls me and claims to be my doctor.

She tells me that everything's fine and I should just not worry about anything anymore.
