I have a phobia of insomnia and am stricken by fear almost every morning. Once my nervous system is activated, nothing seems to help. The physical symptoms include shortness of breath, a feeling that my heart is skipping beats, headache, backache (spinal column) and a horrible pulsing in my throat and head. Any normal person would freak out if he experienced this for just one day. I've endured it almost continuously for eleven years and my spirit is broken. Every day I look through the door to the darkness beyond...wondering when I will get the courage to act.
