Yes this has happened to me. I have run out of the room screaming at 2 in the morning before. In 2016 I ended up in the ER because I fell down a flight of stairs as a result of a night terror. My problems have mostly been solved by getting a new bed and moving it in the middle of the room instead of against the wall.

Are you on lamictal by any chance? One of the side effects of lamictal is nightmares. I noticed my sleep issues intensified almost immediately after my doctor increased my lamictal to 200 milligrams. Other people I have talked to have had the same thing happen.
