Disturbed Sleep
Since the last 3 nights, I’ve been abruptly waking up around the same time in the middle of night feeling uneasy, as if someone is watching over me or plotting to break into my house. Its extremely scary and uncomfortable, I hear faint noises from a far like nail hitting the wall, water sprinkling, someone hushing or walking. It makes me feel like there’s certain energy in the room that is disturbing. I look around but there’s nothing going on but I also feel like something just moved. Its getting onto me and my sleep is being disturbed that does not leave me feeling well rested for the day. What could be the possible reason? I am aware that I have a little bit of anxiety issues and I'm very intuitive as well in my daily life.
