My First (Almost) Panic Attack

Daily Video 11/4/25

My wife has “night terrors.”

I’d never heard of them before meeting her, but they’re fascinating.

She’ll “wake up,” alarmed, grab me tightly, say, “Are you OK? You’re not falling out of the bed, are you?” and then go right back to sleep.

I put “wake up” in quotes, because she will either barely remember this the next morning, or not remember it at all.

That’s sort of what I experienced here, except I absolutely remembered it, because I remained awake for another 10 - 15 minutes, wondering what my brain had just done to me.

So.

Strange.
