Description

Here’s a detailed description of the comic:

Panel 1:

• Text: "DO YOU HAVE ANY SLEEPING ISSUES?"
• A doctor with a beard is seated, looking at a clipboard.
• A patient with short hair and a slight smile is sitting across from him, responding, "YES."

Panel 2:

• Text: "EVERY NIGHT, I PUT MY HEAD ON THE PILLOW. I RELAX. I GO TO SLEEP."
• The patient is now depicted lying back comfortably with a relaxed expression.

Panel 3:

• Text: "WHEN I WAKE UP THERE ARE ALL THESE NEW STAR WARS MOVIES, BUT NONE OF THEM ARE GOOD."
• The background shows a window with an outdoor scene. The patient is depicted sitting up in bed, referencing the view outside.

Panel 4:

• Text:
  • Doctor: "THAT'S NOT A SLEEP DISORDER. THAT'S A REALITY DISORDER."
  • Patient: "CAN YOU MAKE THE SLEEP GO LONGER?"
• The doctor is looking at the patient with a serious expression, while the patient appears hopeful, asking about longer sleep.

The comic humorously addresses the difference between sleep disorders and dissatisfaction with reality through an exchange between a doctor and a patient.
