Wrong
Silent Hill
Anyone else here suffer those as an adult? Oh its been such a joy for me getting those aged 13. In the end I was up to 5 attacks a night while also sleep walking, or should I say sleep running. Shrinks think its PTSD although i'll be messed if I know why or how or what the hell happened to me. Oh and dissociative disorder. They think my brain somehow shut out some trauma when I was little and it messed me up. Mostly I used to just run and scream, until when I was 28 I found some medication (anti depressants a weird combination of 2 different kinds of them that do fresia all for my depression, but help with that) and now I can sleep somewhat normal. That is stare at the ceiling till 5 am or when the sun comes about up, then having these weird ass tremors like my left hand specially shaking and just going up randomly like weird, painful shocks till I finally fall asleep. Shoulders too. So thats nice.
Some highlights of my terrors (but man theres so much):
- Getting one after an operation even before I woke up.
- In that same hospital traumatizing other patients, and having to sleep in another room. (I warned them tons of times before hand mind you, that hospital. "yeah its not possible during narcosis" hah- proved them wrong)
- Completely traumatizing an entire hotel during the holidays, staff banging at my door thinking someone was getting murdered.
- Problems with a previous neighbor years ago, who decided to then stalk and harass me, to get me gone. (Can't even blame her really, but she made the night terrors even worse.)
Fun btw getting the cops at the door while you're technically asleep. And then trying to explain to some cops what night terrors are.
- Having a one night stand, then forgetting to warn the girl about my episodes, accidentally falling asleep. Then waking up to her standing at the door, her nose bleeding, yelling that I'm a psychopath. Turns out I had bit her nose really hard during an episode. Needless to say I never heard from her again, never got the chance to explain. (AMAZED she never called the cops or had someone beat me up after, I was full on expecting it.)
- Dropping out of school and being cypherblind up to this day, and just unemployable because I can't focus on anything, I'm always tired. Even without the night terrors.
You give me even the easiest math problem and i'll fresia it up. Don't know my multiplication tables, also because before the terrors I was already a very heavy sleepwalker.
Oh and to clarify: Usually kids get them but grow out of it during puberty, if you grow IN to it in puberty you're pretty much messed and will suffer them forever. Hence why I can never stop taking those meds. Those meds are ******* up my liver.
