In its early stages, insomnia is almost an oasis in which those who have to think or suffer darkly take refuge.

I have major sleeping problems. I'd rather be up thinking about things than actually sleeping.

I am convinced that during bouts of insomnia, I have sometimes slept without knowing it.

I don't sleep much. I'm on the go. My mind is racing. My wife says my mind is like the rolling dials on a slot machine. So, yeah, I think about everything.

I am an insomniac.

My attention span is all over the place, and I overthink things. I'm an insomniac.

Insomnia is my greatest inspiration.

I am an insomniac. Most of my nights include a moment of wakening. Often I will make my way to the kitchen to make tea and read for awhile.

Insomnia is a vertiginous lucidity that can convert paradise itself into a place of torture.

Insomniacs tend to fall into two general categories - those who give up and those who don't. I don't. I refuse to admit defeat by turning on the light. I will not try to read or watch a movie, thank you. Productivity is a crutch of the weak.
