Although night terrors mostly affect children, a staggering 15%, adults are not exempt. They can start at any time of life and to any one. I found this out when they started to happen to me - completely out of the blue. I didn't know what had hit me! The first time it happened I woke myself up screaming. Nothing was there. The rest of the night I dared not even close my eyes unless it happened again. I didn't know that it was a condition, and that it was called night terrors. But what are night terrors? No one knows what causes them. There are theories but no concrete evidence. One belief is that they are mysterious glitches in the smooth transition between stages of sleep. Another school of thought is that they are attacks by malevolent, non physical entities. What ever the truth is it does not make them any easier to deal with. They are terrifying. For me they would strike out of the blue. It did not matter if I was at home in my own bed, in a hotel, staying with someone else or camping in a field I would wake myself and my husband with my blood curdling screams. I didn't see any thing. I didn't feel anything - except terrified. So frightened that I would lie awake for the rest of the night wondering what the hell had happened. I knew that it wasn't a nightmare. It was a million times worse I believed that I was the only person in the world who did this. That in some way I was demented or at the least disturbed. I didn't talk to any one about it and hoped that it would just go away. It would stop as swiftly as it had started. I had never heard of "night terrors" until I was here in New Zealand when I was talking to a young mother whose son had them. I related to what she was saying, this was what I was experiencing. Night terrors - I could give it a name. It was comforting in an obscure way to know that I wasn't the only one. That this was a condition, albeit without a scientifically know cause, or a cure. Now that I knew what I was looking for I researched only to be dismayed at how little was known about this affliction. How dreadful for the parents that had to watch their children suffer. I was an adult and it scared me to death. My husband, who couldn't understand what was happening to me, felt helpless. It was David, my husband who did indeed find a cure for me - albeit in a very round-about way. He was experimenting with what he called Orgonite, a technology that he had discovered on the internet (what a wonderful place) that has evolved from the work of scientist Wilhelm Reich, a contemporary of Einstein. Reich's technology moves life energy (or orgone, as he called it) . By layering metal and organic material (wood or cotton) he was able to move energy in a dramatic way. At the time Reich's work was very controversial and was suppressed (as lots of good stuff often is) but it is now undergoing a revival in an evolved form (orgonite balances disturbed energy, Reich's technology only moved it). David's interest in Orgonite became an obsession and our home was filled with devices. We got on with living with them - and, I am ashamed to say, taking them for granted a little. It took some time for me to realize that I had not suffered with a night terror for a long time. I was grateful but gave it little thought until we went away. I woke up screaming - they were back! Why? It was only when we were back home that I realized that we had not had any orgonite devises with us! Were they the answer? I couldn't be sure so I asked my friend, the one with the little boy that was a night terror sufferer, to take one of David's devices and try it. It worked. No more night terrors. Gone! She was so relieved that she wanted to broadcast it. So she spoke to other parents who had children who were afflicted by this terrible unknown who also tried Orgonite devises. They had the same results. 100% banishment of night terrors. I wonder if in the 1940 Reich had any idea that he would be helping people in the 21st century overcome some thing that he may not have even heard of - night terrors? I hope that he is turning in his grave - with satisfaction.
