NOUN: A condition characterized by lack of the ability to sleep for prolonged periods of time, or otherwise extremely restless sleep. Often, insomniacs have trouble either falling asleep, staying asleep, or having a prolonged sleep cycle. If you're extremely unlucky, a combination of two or even all three of these characteristics can be present. Many (but not all) insomniacs tend to have underlying mental or emotional disorders that cause (or at least contribute to) the lack of sleep associated with insomnia.

Also, a pretty damn decent Stephen King novel, if you're into long reads.
Insomnia is the reason I'm writing this after 45 straight hours without sleep.

INSOMNIA (novel), however, is the reason I stopped reading books before bed.

The inability to shut down your brain and body to sleep like "normal" people. Natural insomnia is a bitch, there's no easy solution.
Stay awake and ponder your life.
Happy joy.

You disagree with yourself; your eyes want to close but your mind wont shut the F up. The commitee wont stop talking. The time of night when Benadryl wont work. Although your should be sleeping, you are thinking of everything from last years jokes to what your wearing tomorrow. For instance, right now I have insomnia. I cannot put away my iPad... i just cant.
Husband "you look like crap!"
Me "I have insomnia, But on the upside I watched a Dog the Bounty hunter Marathon and added to the Urban Dictonary!"
Husband "you look like crap".

Something created by the infomercial makers to sell stuff you really don't want or need.
I had insomnia, and I bought this really cool pet sweater that doubles as a dish rag. It washes the dishes and pets at the same time.

When you can't sleep no matter what and to avoid losing your mind, developing a split personality and joining Fight Club you post shit on Urban Dictionary only to find there are other sick fucks stalking you on your computer and posting shit also and/or blocking your submissions.
Waking Beauty: Yo I cannot sleep for shit, I have Insomnia and Urban Dictionary isn't publishing any of my shit so fuck it I'm gonna join Fight Club, beat people up or get beaten and blow up shit!

Sleeping Beauty: Huh, ZZZzzzzzz
