I had a sleep disorder. Bad sleep disorder. I'd fall into Rem in about 5 minutes quickest was under a minute. I forget what it's called, it affects a number people like 1 in 10 or 100 thousand, in different ways. My mind would be seeing pictures, dreaming, before my body caught up. It caused horrible shit to happen. Bad stuff. Sensation of something attacking my leg like a big rat crawling up it, scratching clawing painful. But no cramp, after I would wake up, shoot awake, like a jack in the box hollering my head off. I would have to sleep with the light on and would wake up screaming the house down, had family there making sure I was okay. The worst was the shadow people. A reoccurring dream of a shilloutte, see through, an apparition, a male approaching me, like slender man, in my room exactly the same as if I am awake, only I am asleep, but in a dream paralysis. I cannot scream, cannot move, paralysed in dream. As this thing got closer and closer I'd wake up, when it's right at my feet, or at my head, screaming my lungs out so loud almost enough to shatter glass. Once was a female head, just floating above mine, the same panic. It was bad I couldn't sleep next to anybody, or my cat. I'd attack them unintentionally. It lasted for years. It was terrifying. I got a dog and it finally went away. Except stuff moves sometimes in my room now, chair creaks so loud, hours after sitting in it, creaks to the point of movement, like something sitting it. Or the door creaks open, suddenly from being closed. Probably explanation for this phenomenon unlike my past sleep disorder, but not when it wakes me up. Sleep disorder sleeping with eyes partially open, it captures the room, but what was the shadow. Leg was advanced pins and needles, almost a hamstring, except it went right up it from foot to thigh. It felt like it was a big rat running up it, clawing at it. Sleep disorder stuff. Kicked it. Think the chair is the pillow plumping out. But it shouldn't be happening 5 hours later, awaking me, to the point of moving the chair sometimes. Door breeze, but opening it from closed, well it's odd, but it's possible.

Kicked it, or my dog did, except the unusual chair, I should get a new one. Bothered no. It's not a shadow person I cannot do nothing about, attacking my damn leg.

I still fall into Rem quick, but don't dream as much. Dreams I have come true sometimes, and most I know why I've dreamt them where they came from, or why. But at least I haven't seen the shadow people in years.

Things that go bump. Hahahaha
