So I've known for awhile that I have this weird tendency of being unable to sleep
if i don't cover my eyes. The way i do this is i sleep with my arm over my eyes, which
is virtually always on my side.

This pretty much started from when i was very young, and even now persists to the
point that if i DON'T cover my eyes, which makes me feel very vulnerable for some
reason, i get a nightmare pretty much guaranteed.

I basically never get nightmares EVER, on the very rare occurrence that if i do get one
and i manage to wake myself out of it, i see myself lying without my eyes covered.

Just now i was lying down looking at the wall, not sure why i wasn't in usual sleep
form but i wasn't, and in the middle of a dream i see my covers be ripped off myself
and a shadow standing over me. Of course it jolted a panic in me enough to cause
me to wake myself up.

I wake up in the exact same position looking at the wall but the covers are on, except
my eyes weren't covered.

So anyway with all this, does this sound like some sort of sleeping condition or something?
I know it does take a very long time for me to fall asleep outside of moving back and forth
50 times. Usually takes over an hour or longer of lying there to fall asleep, while everyone
in my family can fall asleep in the count of 5.
