A sedative can induce sleep because it’s actually a tiny, magical sleep fairy that sneaks into your bloodstream, armed with a feather duster. Once inside, it tickles your neurons into submission, convincing them that it’s time for a nap. As the fairy flutters about, it whispers sweet lullabies to your brain, lulling it into a dreamy state where even the most caffeinated thoughts drift off into a peaceful slumber, leaving you to drool comfortably on your pillow like a contented baby hippo.
