How can someone live outside of their own body? For Casey it’s lonely. He has a friend, loving parents, yet Casey feels that it may scare them all away. So to keep his grasp on his best and only friend Casey does the only thing he thinks can make everything better: he stops taking his medications. And it works…for a time.

Without whatever pharmaceuticals where clouding his mind, Casey is left feeling whole and in control of his thoughts, even able to hold onto peoples words and have a full conversations without drifting away alone in his head. But is doesn’t take long for the nightmares to start. Nightmares of a little girl, a house, two strangers and a white van.

When the dreams start to feel like memories, Casey confides in his friend, Ed, but it backfires immediately. Before he knows it, Casey’s parents know that he went off his meds and he’s back to where he started.

Things turn around again come New Year’s Eve and Casey once again stops taking his medication, this time with Ed on his side. When the nightmarish memories return, the duo begin to unravel the terrifying truths that are Casey’s new reality.
