night terrors?

Posted by Lydia on January 06, 1998 at 21:43:09:

I am not sure if what I have is night terrors, but I wake up (kind of) about 1-2 hours after falling asleep and see things, usually animals or insects (not people) or strange unknown things in my room. I wake up my husband because I am terrified and want him to get rid of the problem. One of us turns on the light and POOF! the images are gone. I am SO sure they are there. My heart is racing and then it clears and I feel like an idiot. Sometimes they are frequent, sometimes they go away for long periods. What do I do???

Thank You!!
Lydia
