Have you ever had thoughts of just ending it all? Earlier today I had one of those rare occurences. By rare I mean it wasn't triggered by depression, or thoughts of despair. Simply a single line in a story I was reading. "10 minutes". Ten minutes later and he would have never awakened. I don't even think the line actually mentioned waking up. Just the ten minutes. But the idea was there. And suddenly I found a grim picture jumping to my mind. A picture of taking all the medications I have, all at once, and simply lying down to sleep for ever.
Moral of this story: Stories about torture and abuse + lack of sleep do not a good combination make.
For those 10 seconds, while the picture was still resonating in my mind, was the second longest 10 seconds of my life.
