My hearing would go from one to hearing things that weren't happening. My sight would change too. Keep in mind that your body will rest even if it doesn't sleep. I used to say to my Doc that I was going to go insane if I didn't sleep soon. She told me that even if I just lay in bed and not sleep my body is regenerating to a degree.
So will you be an inpatient? That would be great! Thats what I had.

((((((((Cindi))))))))) It's ok honey, this probably is happening because of lack of sleep like you said. Can anyone help you get some sleep?

Okay, maybe I shouldn't be butting in... but I totally get that breathing item thing. I usually see it when I'm really tired, too. You can go pick up the pants... they're not really breathing or moving in any way. Your eyes are just playing tricks on you. Don't worry - you're really not crazy. The "breathing" will go away :)

Aw Cinder, I used to see things move. I would Duck all the time when I was walking cuz I thought a bird was swooping over my head!
Everyone would look at me like I was insane! I also got very twittchy. My muscles would jump, and small unexpected sounds would make me yelp.
Eventually, a strange thing happed. Everything got to be funny. REALLY Funny. I would laugh so hard I could hardly breathe. Tears would poor out of my eyes like rivers. It felt fantastic! Tension I had been carrying for years seemed to poor out in those tears.
I don't know if it was a sort of purge or what, but I'll never forget it. It helped so much, just to laugh. After that sleep came. Deep sleep.
Somehow, don't ask me how, if once I found humor in my clumsiness and in my general pathetic predicament, I would laugh. That laughter led to sleep. Just about anything would make me laugh. Eg: I was averaging sleep about every four days, so I felt drunk and in a fog. As I sat watching TV, I smelt cat crap. My first thought was I hope its not on me. I grabbed my kitten and smelled it ass. I actually stuck my nose right up to its little hole! All in this sweeping motion like it was the most logical thing in the world to do. My husband looked over and saw what I was doing. The look on his face was priceless. I said " Oh its' ok, the cats but smells". Then I started to laugh and it lasted about an hour. I still think it hilarious. I guess you had to be there.
NOW that sounds crazy right? But I'm not. and your not either baby. Your just a guy who is having a really hard time. This too shall pass dear heart. Eventually you will sleep again. Laughter can be an outlet, I hope you find it too.
With Hope,
One
