During the past year I have had 3 experiences of waking up from what I guess is a nightmare I cannot remember, gasping and calling out. When this happens, I open my eyes, always facing the edge of the bed, and see a man right next to me. It is not someone I recognize, and it is very vivid. I am always freaked out because for a second, it is like someone is in our bedroom. I don't really feel scared, more like really startled that someone is that close to me. Any thoughts would be much appreciated.
Thank you.
