For quite a few years now I have panicked in the middle of the night that the doors are not locked downstairs. It was put down to anxiety.
For the past year or so I have woke up terrified that I'm naked in public. I actually fully wake up and think to myself "ooh shit I'm naked, how the fuck did this happen???" and I think I'm at work (I work in hospital so think I'm in a patient bed totally naked and everyone can see) and it takes me a while to come around and realise I'm at home. I also get where I wake up suddenly and think "oh my god I'm naked and there is a bloke in my bed, who the fuck is it?!" and it takes me a while to come around and realise it's ok, it's just DP who I live with.
Last night was awful. I woke up in a sudden terror thinking "oh jesus I'm naked at work, I don't know what to do" and I DIDN'T come around. Instead I freaked out more that there was a "strange man" next to me and so I crept out of bed and grabbed a hoody, put that on and then got back into bed before anyone "saw" me and then DP put his arm around me in his sleep and I started freaking out that it was all so innapropriate, this man would realise I was naked, I'd get the sack, everyone will think I'm a freak ....
it took me AGES to come around and realise I was at home with DP and then I realised I was laid rigid in bed with a hoody on.
I'm starting to get paranoid that I might have a brain tumour or something. I am honestly starting to worry that I'm going crazy.
Has ANYONE experienced anything like this before?

To be frightened that my night time confusion might be a brain disorder?
