A Most Disruptive Sleep Psyche Violently Pummeled

A most disruptive sleep - psyche violently pummeled Upon awakening earlier today (May 26th, 2020) felt utterly fatigued without fail tormenting dreams found yours truly jangled, harried and frenzied across broadscale valiant effort to remain awake exerted to no avail. Exhaustion pounded noggin on par seeking Holy Grail akin to punishing, pounding, and piercing clangorous din unstoppable even after hypothetically downing entire bottle of Excedrin recourse I would never resort, cuz even overdosing once would be one time to often nobody except grim reaper would grin. Stone cold dead would definitely, (albeit permanently) obliterate intolerably anguished fraught mine agitated groggily horrid mental state suicidal temptation untenable solution to quiet and annihilate these every now and again catastrophic dreams severely dislocate entire body, mind, and spirit triage cuz surviving kith and kin plus spouse would never exonerate me mortal soul forever cursed mate. Impossible mission to shrug off unpleasant wakeful spate exerts severely debilitating stranglehold when peaceful night sleep severely compromised as aforementioned and told invariably entire day foregone as hopelessness, purposelessness, uselessness... wracks corporeal entity (me), where I wanna fold these lovely bones into fetal position mold or hanker to grip hold of torturous fifty shades of gray matter wildly renting asunder as futile lesson to scold monstrous, odious, rapacious, and villainous unbearable chokehold.

Prozac prescribed as antidote to curb moody blues lessening sadness I emote and/or stemming prolonged bouts of sinking feeling analogous to going down within sinking boat, and more often than not typical day less fraught as if cerebral cortex smote with agonizing turmoil, now that's all I wrote.
