My head began to spin in circles before going every way imaginable. My eyes couldn't focus on the now blinding lights and flashing colours, not to mention my vision blurring. Am I dying? I coughed into my hand, blood pouring down my fingertips. I must be. My heart became almost non-existent as the sky fell in on me. I must be dying. There was laughing, laughing about me. The walls were laughing. They were coming to kill me-if they got to me first. There was a dark creature coming towards me, it's long claws ready to grip me to death. One way or another, I was going to die.

The creature was closer, lifted a bony hand and slashed it down in my face, making me fall unconscious. I must have been dead, there was no way I could have lived through that, I would have thought. But I couldn't think of anything at the moment. Because I couldn't think.

I suppose you understand why I don't like to talk about the medication. It was torture, and felt like an eternity, but I wasn't sure how long it was before I went numb. And that's what it felt like. Numbness. I was a broken mess, and lord knows I wasn't doing that again. If I lived, that is.
