GiveMeAUsernamePlease Said:

"Booting issue: Lately, my macbook has been acting up. when it goes to sleep, it will crash and i have to boot it up again. [...]before the issue, the screen had faint white vignette effect. (my macbook is a 2013 pro model, i know it is old but i want one more year out of it.)"

Use First Aid in Disk Utility:

Perhaps it is going dead. If so, well, then it's time for a new Hard Drive. In Disk Utility, its sectors would be looked at and maybe reset to make it operate as it should.

A. Run First Aid in Disk Utility:

Check the health of the Volume

1. Open: Applications menu
2. Select: Utilities menu
3. Select: [volume name]
4. Click: the First Aid button

See if this is then accessible.

B. Try Mounting Recovery Mode:

See what happens when you go in to Disk Utility. See if the drive is mounted. If so, then click "Unmount" and then "Mount".

1. Plug in: the hard drive:
2. Hold Down: command + R upon boot
3. Select: Disk Utility
4. Select: [This Hard Drive]
5. Click: Mount
6. Click: the First Aid button

See if this is then accessible.
