Flatlining

Sometimes I feel like I am drowning. Like I am trapped in a car that had just gone over the edge of a bridge. The car is slowly filling with water, the icy cold stream flowing through the windows, filling my shoes and making me gasp. If this were real life I have an average of 2 minutes before the vehicle is fully submerged. After that I have an additional one to three minutes before I drown. I have to get out before then.
