Got a question for you insomniacs - what does it feel like to have insomnia? I know the feeling of wanting to out of all rational thought to go to sleep but not being able to and just getting up after a few hours of tossing in frustration...

But eventually exhaustion will take over and I will just fall asleep nomatter how much willpower I put against it.

What is it like as an insomniac? Could you just stay awake for days at a time without REM sleep? How does it affect your daily functioning?

I'm about to pull an all-nighter right now for an exam but would definitely rather be sleeping right now and could pass out right away if I wanted to.
