7:30 AM: A Rude Awakening with Hallucinations and Headache

The clock ticked past 7:30 AM, dragging me from slumber. I found myself in a dimly lit room, my head throbbing with a pain that felt like steel needles piercing my skull. My scalp twitched involuntarily, and a wave of nausea washed over me. As I tried to focus, chaotic images flickered across my vision, accompanied by a torrent of chaotic, meaningless noises. Was I hallucinating? Both auditory and visual hallucinations bombarded my senses, adding to the disorientation and fear.
