The finger curls as you feel a wave of exhaustion settle over you. Finally. You crawl happily into bed and drift to sleep immediately. You wake up to your alarm the next morning, but something is off. Why are you still exhausted? You feel as though you can barely function. You stumble through your morning routine and get to work just on time.

Seven. That’s the number of times you drifted off while at work while trying your hardest to stay awake. Something is definitely off. Days and weeks pass with no change. The doctors are baffled. After all, sleep has never been the best understood human feature. You randomly fall asleep from exhaustion on a daily basis and nothing you do seems to stop it. Maybe there’s a silver lining to this whole situation? At least any time you want to fall asleep, you’re out instantly. Your wish, it appears, was granted.
