The 'Wojak Trying to Sleep' meme is a two-panel comic featuring the iconic internet character Wojak struggling to find rest. In the first panel, he is seen lying in bed, often appearing peaceful or expectant of sleep, while the second panel depicts him wide-eyed and distressed, staring at the ceiling in the dark. This template is widely used to represent the sudden onset of intrusive thoughts, embarrassing memories, or existential dread that frequently occurs just as one is about to drift off. It evolved from the broader 'Wojak' and 'Feels Guy' universe, resonating with online communities through its painfully relatable depiction of anxiety and the human brain's tendency to overthink at the most inconvenient times.
