At 4 a.m. or so everyday I’ve been seeing bright flashes of light in my mind like looking at a bright light then quickly looking away while closing your eyes....the residual image burning into your brain making you wide awake and it not going away much like a midnight sun....

My conscious is awake but the body is resting and I feel trapped not able to get up till eventually it’s so painfully annoying will I then stir to rise for a moment to hope that it ends and I can get back to sleep, but usually not till the last 30 minutes before the alarm goes off leaving me yawning tired for the rest of the day. Here we go again. :/
