Waking up, sweating, couldn't go back to sleep.

The signs were waking up sweating, couldn't go back to sleep.

It took me about a half an hour to 45 minutes

to go back to sleep, and that's when I first noticed it.

I had a girlfriend, which later on became my wife,

and whenever I would have these dreams and waking up

with sweating and everything, I had told her about

what had happened, the trauma that happened,

and whenever I would wake up and be sweating and shaking,

she would kind of console me by saying, "Hey, it's OK."

And for years and years, being as that there was

no one else to talk to, I talked to her.

So, she kind of consoled me about, you know,

"It's going to be OK, you just had another dream."

And the dreams would, at least once a week

I would have one of those dreams.
