What Causes Insomnia, Headache, Tinnitus, Confusion And Bruxism?

Well, I have been having several symptoms over the following years that are somewhat infrequent (more so, than not) yet disruptive to my sleep. Here is a list of what I have been experiencing and the best way I know to describe it: 1. Unable to move while asleep (?) or awake (?) 2. Very loud electrical or booming noise followed by intense headache or nausea 3. Sounds like I am underwater whooshing drowning noise 4. Unfamiliarity or extreme confusion (intense confusion) 5. Several occasions I have awaken to my head thrashing about back and forth (like that of someone having a bad dream or someone shaking their head no ) 6. Teeth chattering or grinding 7. One or two occasions woke up to my arm moving but would stop when I woke up 8. Moaning noises or attempts to scream (but I am asleep or having a very intense dream) 9. Intense extreme heaviness and strong feelings of confusion-I don t really know how to explain this one. It s almost like a feeling of having air in my head 10. Thus far, 9/10 times I have heard someone speaking or have heard other noises (such as someone walking up steps, familiar voices, the sensation that someone is standing in my presence) and this has happened during times when no one is at home Maybe these things are normal but if you could, please explain to me what is going on. Thank you
