The last couple of nights when I have woken up in the middle of the night I have sent myself into an anxiety attack. I somehow convince myself that someone is in the house. after than my heart races, my hands get numb, my breathing gets extremely light and I feel my chest tighten. I can not control these thoughts and its becoming unbearable. If I am left home alone at night I will not leave my room for anything because I am scared some one is outside my window watching me and waiting to come in.
Does anyone else have these thoughts? How should I deal with them??

What about sharing this with your parents? Let them know that it happens often, and that it is terrifying for you. This might be the opening you are looking for to let your parents know that you would like to be in therapy.
Feeling very frightened is not a flaw, and they won't think less of you
