Shrink: So would you call your family life normal?

Me: Well everyone in my house wakes up screaming once a week or so.. is that normal?

Shrink: What do you think?

Me: I think it's fucked up and that I got gipped

Shrink: Why do you think that? *pauses* actually, why does everyone wake up screaming?

Me: I can't say why my mother does, because I don't know anything about her past. My father found his brother's body after he killed himself in the woods and had been there for 3 days, and has woke up screaming for 9 years now, it used to be everynight now it's only once a month or so...

Shrink: and you and.. *checks notes* Sarah.. why do you wake up screaming.

Me: Well.. Sarah and I watched a friend die.. that's why she screams, I do for many reasons.. When I close my eyes at night I always see dead people, not in the "sixth sense" way, but when i close my eyes I see Ryan, or Skippy, or Craig, or Mike... I can't seem to forget any of them. At night I dream that I'm at my grandmother's house and I see Craig in the yard. I run outside to see him, and he's sitting there staring at me, he's alive, but his head is still all mashed up. He stares blankly at me and suddenly screams "why did you let me fall?" and I wake up.. I hate closing my eyes at night. Sometimes I don't sleep for days. I'm starting to forget Ryan's voice, I barely remember what Craig looks like

*breaks down crying*
