I said in the story that I suffer from insomnia and sleep paralysis.
Now Insomnia is simply just a sleep disorder you basically have the inability to fall asleep normally. Insomnia can be an effect on anxiety and depression which I have been diagnosed with both of them.
And sleep paralysis is a bit more interesting and feels absolutely terrible as I know from experience. Sleep paralysis is a temporary inability to move or speak that happens when you're waking up or, less commonly, falling asleep. Although you're awake, your body is briefly paralysed, after which you can move and speak as normal. The paralysis can last from a few seconds to several minutes.
During this brief time of inability to move or speak. Quite commonly you hear about how people see a figure of a man with a hat (I'll post a picture with this part)

I see this guy quite a lot while I go through this and I just want to say it is difficult talking about it because usually I do get it worse every time I do like something doesn't like me talking about it or something.
