used to have night terrors (half awake dreams) and those were so realistic I would be scared shitless

That might have been what I had, but it freaked me out. I literally felt what was going on.

yeah, been therr

I didn't know if some real freddy kruger shit was going on...

seems odd youd have a night terror at this age when youve never had one before though

It only happened once. I was so scared to go back to sleep, but once I did, it didn't do it again.
