Question: I am a 29 yr. old adult male college student. I have been having these “episodes” for a few years now.
Although, almost every morning last week i woke up somewhere other than my bedroom. I had no idea how i got there or what happened. My family says I am screaming as if i were on fire, pouring sweat, and trying to defend myself.Two nights ago a picture on the wall got broke by me somehow. That same night I “hurled” myself to the floor, (according to my family). I hurt myself badly injuring my shoulder and neck. My family says I look wide awake during all this. I scream and also cry during these episodes.I am tired of waking up all scratched and banged up,soaked from sweat,tears everywhere, and not knowing why or how any of this happened. It bothers me b/c i am somewhat “de-sensitized.” Therefore, I cannot think of any thing that would or is capable of instilling that kind of fear in me.I wish i could remember at least 1 detail from these. I am embarrassed to say something to my doc. if there is anyone who has read this that can help me or knows someone who can please reply to this blog. Thank you.
