Avatar m tn We watch Ghost Hunters here. My daughter won't. She says if she wants to see a ghost, just stick around this place! LOL. But at least after this show started, I didn't feel quite as nuts. At least others see these things too. I've always assured my children that they are perfectly normal, just with extra gifts. But probably best not to discuss in public. I don't think the teachers in our town would approve!
Avatar f tn WELL my fiances parents have lived in their home for 11 years and theyve experienced ghost like events and she called in ghost hunters since my baby will be staying there occasionally and she was worried. The ghost hunters caught recordings of the ghosts saying their name was Michael and other words ect. I told my friend about it and not expecting this at all she's REFUSING to come to my baby shower now because of what I told her. I'm sorry but I'm PI SSED!
Avatar f tn Throughout the history, people considered this phenomenon as work done by evil spirits. However, the modern science can explain the terrifying event as a Sleep Paralysis." some readin on sleep paralysis: http://serendip.brynmawr.

755087 tn?1250925397 Maybe you have a gift and you can see the future and can feel the ghost feelings. I do believe in ghost and have a friend that is a ghost hunter so to speak. Talk to your parents please they can help you. Also maybe getting into counseling will help you deal with these visions better. Please don't let anyone tell you you are crazy because these things do happen.

2038180 tn?1329861306 During sleep, the body cycles between non-REM and REM sleep. Typically, people begin the sleep cycle with a period of non-REM sleep followed by a very short period of REM sleep. Dreams generally occur in the REM stage of sleep. Intense dreaming occurs during REM sleep as a result of heightened brain activity, but paralysis occurs simultaneously in the major voluntary muscle groups. REM is a mixture of encephalic (brain) states of excitement and muscular immobility.
208686 tn?1293030503 Great thread! My name is Sheri, and I guess something I tend to keep to myself at least from co-workers and people who aren't very close friends of mine is that I'm a member of a Ghost Hunters group. The team is part of TAPS (from SciFi channel), and we were recently featured in an IMAX movie. Trust me, I had NO interesting in being in that movie because my butt looks even bigger on IMAX! LOL!

177003 tn?1266270355 It's called sleep paralysis and is pretty common. It happened to me a lot during detox, but is getting less frequent. My therapist told me to cough the word "cough" when it happens. I have no idea why, but it kicks you out of it.
Avatar f tn Depending if you watched shows like Ghost Hunters they have certain technology that can tell waves of magnetic or electric feilds that can make a person uneasy feeling like somone is there when they are really not. I seriously need help. I can barely sleep sometimes because the feeling is bothering me so much and gives me some anxiety. Im not planning on having some crazy excorsism either..
Avatar f tn Sleep paralysis is the inability to move or talk at the beginning or end of sleep. Microsleep: Microsleeps are very brief sleep episodes during which people with narcolepsy continue to function (talk, put things away, etc.), and then awaken with no memory of the activities. Nighttime wakefulness: People with narcolepsy may have periods of wakefulness at night, with hot flashes, elevated heart rate, and sometimes intense alertness.
Avatar f tn Unfortunately, there is no practical way to decipher between normal REM sleep and sleep paralysis. This is because in normal REM sleep you experience the same paralysis as in sleep paralysis; the only difference is your level of consciousness at the time. So there's no way to develop a sensor that an app could use to address this issue. This also may be of interest to you: I have a service dog whose primary task is medical alert.
Avatar n tn what makes sleep paralysis happen? what can i do to reduce the risk of suffering sleep paralysis? what medication is avalible for this disorder? how effective is it? how does it help? i would be very gratefull to hear off you.
Avatar m tn The symptoms you are experiencing could be due to an entity called sleep paralysis. When this happens in sleep the person has difficulty moving his hands or feet. This is the symptom of a sleep disorder called Narcolepsy. This sleep disorder is characterized by excessive day time sleepiness, sleep paralysis, cataplexy where the person has episodes of loss of muscle function while awake, hypnogogic hallucinations and automatic behavior.
Avatar n tn I am a 20F, I am currently taking adderol 20mg when I need to study, and Xanax to help me with panic attack, as well as Suboxone. I have been suffering with hypnopompic Sleep Paralysis- I wake up, usually from a day-time nap, unable to move or talk. I always brushed it off as a dream until it lasted for about an hour, I fell on the floor and was found there. During this time of Paralysis i got overheated, excessive sweating, and couldnt stop biting my tongue.
Avatar f tn I experienced sleep paralysis for the first time last night. It was absolutely terrifying. I couldn't wake up no matter how hard i tried and when I was about to wake up I would be dragged right back into the horrible dream I was having Is anyone else experiencing sleep paralysis for the first time while pregnant.
Avatar f tn I actually get sleep paralysis as well... It won't harm your baby at all.
Avatar n tn Do you know why you get sleep paralysis? Such as stress, random sleep eppisodes, naps during the day, etc etc. Also, do you get pain in the neck? Like a stricking pain going up your neck, it's a fast but very uncomfortable experience.
Avatar f tn Physiologically, sleep paralysis is closely related to REM atonia, the paralysis that occurs as a natural part of REM (rapid eye movement) sleep. Sleep paralysis occurs either when falling asleep, or when awakening. When it occurs upon falling asleep, the person remains aware while the body shuts down for REM sleep, and it is called hypnagogic or predormital sleep paralysis.
Avatar n tn Last night I experienced sleep paralysis for the first time and it was terrifying. I felt like I was being tortured and heard noises but I could not talk or even muffle any sounds. I was unable to sleep for awhile before this and only slept for two hours. Yesterday was also the three year anniversary of my mothers death who I was very close to so I am sure this was not a coincidence. Is this most likely an isolated incident by stress and the situation or should I be concerned?
568812 tn?1379165794 All I knew is that it seemed so real and I would keep the lights on. I had the sleep paralysis also where I was trying to move but could not and trying to say, "Help" but the words would not come out. It was frightening. I would often recite the Lord's prayer. My daughter though has also had the paralysis in her sleep, so not sure if it is PSTD associated alone as she did not have the abusive childhood I did.
