Insomnia Chronic inability to fall asleep or remain asleep for an adequate length of time. (Latin insomnia, from insomnis - sleepless; in- 'not', somnus- 'sleep') Oh screw it. I'm a mutant. I really am. Normal people go to bed and fall asleep in about half-an-hour, at most. Normal people yawn, and get tired and feel sleepy at night. Normal people get at least 7hours of sleep. Normal people are everything but me. Abnormal people (aka mutants, freaks, aliens; etc) go to bed and lay there for hours practically conscious of everything happening around them. Abnormal people don't yawn and don't feel sleepy - even though they're overfatigued and their eyeballs are virtually popping out. Abnormal people can stay awake for more than 48hours. Abnormal people are me. Join the club!
