Got Startled Bad Last Night I was asleep and awoke to my 21 year old son standing over me bedside. He was coming to retrieve his headphones from my nightstand, however I had a MAJOR startle reflex and it got me worse than has happened in years. He did not touch me but the movement evidently disturbed me and he said my arms flailed and I looked in total terror. Well, let me tell you my arms did flail and I was in total terror. I hate this crap, I guess it will never really stop, you just learn to control yourself, your PTSD and your environment to keep you from having such responses. It really sucked and I figured I would share with you guys, in the day I can rationalize somewhat that I am fine. However, in my sleep I am still in Hell. Sorry if this upsets anyone. |
