I’m used to pulling all-nighters. I’m used to very little sleep. It’s the story of every insomniac. But when I take a hit or do a line, I’ll be awake for days at a time, staying high enough to chase awake sleep. I am on my fourth day of a binge, and sleep continues to evade. I don’t know if it would be worse if i simply wait out the comedown, or if i continue my breakdown.
