hello,

I am new here but just wanted to ask if anyone else has this problem I've been having.
I sleep deeply and dream a lot at night. Lots of bad dreams.

But the problem is waking up---5 nights out of 7 (or so) I wake up VERY abruptly. I either wake up gasping and panicked, or just sit straight up in bed, or I think someone's in the house or my leg is asleep (when it's not!) or that i'm supposed to be somewhere...
And i say weird things to my husband and jump up and ask what day is it? and what time is it ?!!?! and just feel freaked out.

I was just wondering if anyone else does this or knows why this happens? thank you!
