What's going on?

It's exactly 12am.

I have unknowingly slept for 20 hours. Which also meant that I did not have single morsel of food or drink for that same amount of time.

My head feels heavy.

I feel weak.

I came online to search for a 24-hour clinic. Couldn't make it to work this morning. I vaguely remembered struggling to stay awake long enough to send an sms to my colleague before slipping into total unconsciousness.

I couldn't remember what happened. It felt like I was on an overdose of sleeping pills.

Found the clinic, gotta go now.

My eyes are threatening to close again.

What's going on?

I think it is hard for us to assess without knowing more.

Basically I would ask:

(1) are you eating well?
(2) Are you getting enough rest?

Are you using sleeping pills and coffee to regulate your waking and sleeping states, then I would strongly recommend stopping that.

Alcohol is a central nervous system depressant and should not be combined with other CNS substances - like sleeping pills or anti-histamines.

Are you sick? Is your blood pressure normal? Are you dehydrated? Do you have other symptoms like diarrhea? Dizziness?

Have you been using controlled substances? Are you sensitive to strobing and flickering lights (epileptic seizure)?

You are not indestructible and your loss will be noticed. Take care of yourself.

“In this galaxy, there's a mathematical probability of three million Earth-type planets. And in all of the universe, three million million galaxies like this. And in all of that and perhaps more, only one of each of us. Don't destroy the one named Elvina.” - adapted from Star Trek, "The Balance of Terror"
