Thread: need help and answers please!!

hi! for a couple of weeks, just before i fall asleep, i have a few weird experiences. after i put myself to bed, after a few minutes i hear very loud bangs (very very loud, like the bang from a bomb exploding, but without the echo, and no one else in the room or house hears them). i get scared, wake up and change the sleep position. a few minutes later, the same. recently, i started having different and more dramatic experiences, i fall asleep, and all of a sudden i wake up in fear, with no reason. there isn't happening anything, but i am scarred as hell. tried moving my arms, but couldn't. tried screaming, but couldn't. i don't see shadows, don't hear any voices, but i am really scared in those moments. can someone explain what is happening? and how can i get rid of these moments of fear? or how can i make it into something less traumatic than it is now? pls explain and answer someone who knows anything. thank you!
