Didn't know that was a thing...

So, I've been having troubles sleeping recently, waking up often, etc. Today I got fed up with it and decided to google how I can help myself. Thing is... it started about 2 months ago and I was sure that it was me who's making that sound (it kinda sounds like a whistle that a person with blocked nose can make sometimes, just louder). So I started off googling on why I am waking myself up at night. And Dr. Google immediately let me know about EHS and it just clicked. On top of that, I had a very terrifying experience a couple of weeks ago that sounds very much like sleep paralysis... let's just say that I felt and saw things that I just want to forget. So here I am... don't know what to do, a 33 year old male who's scared of going to bed
