I often wake up several times a night to very light sounds to check if an intruder is in the house. I would sometimes run into the living room with a gun when my cat had the night zoomies. I sleep with loud white noise machine the last few years. The last three nights I have had horrible night terror episodes. Yesterday, a half dozen times. The night prior I had one lasting over a minute, screaming and grabbing my girlfriends legs. Around ten years ago I was stabbed five times while fighting two guys in a grocery store parking lot. I had some obvious PTSD symptoms for the first few months. The sleeping disturbances have always come and gone. They have never been this bad and I am avoiding sleep tonight after it already happening three times in the three hours since I went to bed.
