Sleep = Escapism

Leave a Comment
I figured that sleep is a form of escapism. I think i wrote about this a little earlier. I notice that i like to sleep whenever there's a problem or anything. I think it's because then you kinda avoid the problem for a little while more. And when you are sleeping, you don't think and ruminate about your problems as the day goes on...

And when you sleep, you get to dream about things like how you want it to be, you're in your own la-la land. You don't have to face the sad, disappointing, ugly reality for a little while longer.

But as all sleep goes, you have to wake up eventually, then the ugly reality comes rushing back like a freight train, in your face. And all the thoughts, memories, feelings come back and devour you whole.
Just a little note, i slept from 2am yesterday morning to 3.15pm today, woke up, ate abit, went back to sleep at 4.30pm until 9pm, woke up, ate abit, and now am here. And after this post is done, i will go back to sleep.
