I think I almost died

For the past couple of weeks there’s been a real bad heatwave around here. A month ago I had to start taking sleepy gummies cuz I could not fall asleep at all due to being so hyper and energetic, it’s been like that for years.

I’ve been taking 3 gummies every night and putting on an audio video of like a creepypasta or book reading or somethin’ and falling asleep with it with my headphones.

Over the days I’ve started noticing that I’ve been waking up extremely steamy and sweating buckets, with my bed all moist and soggy.

It all eventually culminated with the fact that 3 days ago I woke up at like 2:30 AM with the most dehydrated feeling I felt in my life.

Words cannot explain how fucking tired, thirsty and delirious I felt.

So— it turns out that my blanket was so incredibly thick, and combined with me hugging one of my plushies every time I go to bed, I began getting extremely dehydrated and sweaty while sleeping.

Since I was taking sleepy gummies, my body was physically incapable of waking up and stayed asleep while I was probably dying of thirst.

I genuinely think I was in real danger, but I dunno how common this is— or if dying from thirst while sleeping is even possible.
