Somnis

1) To be lost in thought. 2) To be so lost in thought that one does not notice their surroundings.

The woman was somnised in her book, so she failed to notice the man sneaking up on her.

soonish

When you want to do something soon, but you're not sure if it'll get done. You'll do it sometime in the near future...hopefully...but maybe not soon.

I will sell my multi-million dollar company soonish to a group of people capable of running it properly.

Somniphobia

Somniphobia is defined as "a persistent, abnormal, and unwarranted fear of sleep", and this condition causes thousands of people major distress every year. There are many reasons why people may suffer from somniphobia, as with any fear: they may have had repeated bad experiences with nightmares/night terrors as a child. Known by many names—somniphobia and fear of sleep being the most common—the problem often significantly impacts quality of life. It can cause panic attacks, and symptoms include shortness of breath, nausea, sweating, irregular heartbeat and a sense of impending doom/dread.
