Cody Newman's Insanity Journal

Every night at midnight, I die screaming. Every morning, I wake up again beside my dog - alive, confused, and one day closer to losing my mind.

What began as a nightmare becomes a prison. The clocks reset, along with everything that happened. The same faces, but not always the same events. The eyes of the monsters are still waiting for me in the dark.

Am I trapped in this loop? Am I cursed? Am I just losing my mind? Am I already dead, forced to relive a nightmare of my own creation? Each loop twists further, revealing cracks in the world around me - and inside my own mind. The people I love, the people I care for, begin to change yet stay the same. Shadows whisper, and the reflection in the mirror starts answering back with a grin that isn't my own.

As days blur together into one, I search for a way out, but every solution opens another door into madness. The world moves around me, shaped by my actions into the darkness inside me - yet it stays the same.

Each loop tears out a part of me, shows the world something I dread to face, and shatters the illusions I've built around myself. I fear that one of them will tear out something so deep that I'll never be the same again.

How many times can a man break before something inside shatters forever?
