Insomnia has never sounded so funny, as Dustin Nickerson has nailed it. The comedian hilariously explains what its like whenever youre having issues sleeping. Watch the short but laugh-out-loud clip to listen to Dustin expertly describe insomnia in what is likely the funniest way possible.
All our lives, weve heard how crucial it is to get a good nights sleep. Be sure to get those eight hours, they say. As weve gotten older, weve likely learned how right all those people were when talking about sleep. Its difficult to function properly without adequate sleep. You may be able to handle the next day, but odds are youll be a shell of yourself, just going through the motions.
So, tossing and turning at night, unable to fall asleep, is never fun. In fact, insomnia can be incredibly frustrating, not to mention how it will negatively impact you the following day. Those who have no issues falling asleep may be unable to understand how someone could struggle to fall asleep. This may be a completely foreign concept to some individuals.
In a clip posted on YouTube, Dustin perfectly and hilariously describes what insomnia is like. Anyone who has ever experienced sleep issues will immediately relate to what hes saying and laugh hysterically as well.
Like, I used to just go to sleep, he said. Now, I have a relationship with sleep. My body and brain cannot agree on bedtime. I can be barely able to stand, tired, and bodys like, Hey, brain, we should go to be. And brains like, Totally. Lets do it.
This is where, as Dustin points out, things get complicated.
And then, as soon as you hit the pillow, brains like, Oh, hey, real quick, here is everything that youre worried about. Here it is, right here, he said.
He also mentioned that the brain will then commonly bring up some less-than-great memories and, just for kicks, remind us of the most frightening movie weve ever watched. Good luck trying to get to sleep now.
