i killed an intruder

Date: 3/27/2019

I was in my house and we heard somethings in the garage , because of that, my family and I hid in my moms room. We heard someone coming upstairs so we packed everything to the room entrance and to the closet. I for some reason had a steak knife with me, but I didn’t tell anyone. For some reason, there was a guy that opened the door and started giving us updates on where he is. Then the same dude said that the person was walking upstairs so we hid in the room with us. Not even a minute later, he pulled out two butcher knifes and started swinging. I attempted to swing at him but he wasn’t close enough, so I hid back into the closet. I guess he saw me so he started walking towards the closet. When he got close enough I swung the knife at him. Luckily was able to get a nice cut on his stomach. He looked down at the blood coming out of his shirt. Then I leaped onto him and stabbed him. I stabbed him so many times, I can’t even remember. I continued to stab the dude in the stomach until my family started shouting at me. I got up and said “whew! He’s dead.” I looked at the blood on my hands and blood on the knife, I felt something, something WERID. Suddenly I’m a hospital and there are nurses yelling at me to calm down, apparently they are telling me that the guy I stabbed was never real, I yelled at them that what they said wasn’t true and that I saw him with my son eyes. My parents and sisters were shaking me and telling me it wasn’t true, and that I killed some random dude . (Which doesn’t even make sense??) . But I was so stuck on the fact that the dude was real and that I killed him in self defense.
