Yes, it’s a real thing abbreviated to EHS. I have this strange syndrome. Let me explain. When I’m falling asleep, or even fast asleep, I sometimes hear loud noises like a Big Bang or knocking. They startle me, they don’t happen all the time, they can wake me up with a jolt.
When I say a noise, it’s not something anyone but me can hear. To me it sounds very real, very loud, occasionally scary.
I’m not sure when this started, what I do know is that now the noises are much more frequent. Sometimes I get up, check the house, other times I reassure myself, it wasn’t real or it was a pop bottle expanding or blaming it on the dog (or cat).
I’m hoping the current episode eases soon. My over active imagination works overdrive in the dark.
Sleep tight all. Hope it’s a quiet one!
