Common Questions and Answers about Sleep paralysis loud noise

Avatar f tn Hey everyone. I'm coming here to ask about something that's been happening to me every so often for the past year. I chose this random morning to post, because I've reached the point at which I can no longer go on without knowing how to solve my problem, or even knowing what it really is. I'm afraid to go to sleep, because that's when my "episodes" occur. Just this morning I woke up at 6:30 AM to have one of the worst ones yet, and now here I sit.. Typing.
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 It sounds like it could be sleep paralysis to me. I do that all the time. I thought it was "night terrors." I'm fully aware of everything around me, can hear and everything but can't scream out, can't move, nothing. I learned it was common with narcolepsy. You need to go see your primary care doctor and/or get a referral to a sleep specialist.

Avatar m tn What you are experiencing could be hallucinations and delusions and they can occur with certain medications, stress, sleep deprivation, in certain brain disorders and with schizophrenia or bipolar disorders. When sleep paralysis happens in sleep the person has difficulty moving his hands or feet. This is the symptom of a sleep disorder called Narcolepsy. You will need to consult your primary care physician for assessment. Hope this helped and do keep us posted.
Avatar f tn Sometimes when I sleep I stop breathing to the point were I start making a "dolphin" noise (that's what my boyfriend calls it). He says it's like I'm suffocating. My brain wakes up because I hear the noise I'm making but I can't move. I hear everything going on around me like my boyfriend telling me to breath. But I can't move. I only can "wake up" when he physically moves me. I read about sleep paralysis but they don't mention making noise.
Avatar f tn Looks like sleep paralysis. Sleep on your sides.
Avatar f tn i have been experiencing sleep paralysis for abt 4-5 years. it has happened about 5 times till now. each times it happened i was lying on my bed and half alseep when suddenly i feel like someone just took hold of me hard and is not letting move at all. I tried to move or to speak but i am unable to do so no matter how hard i try. I also hear a loud buzzing in my ear. But just as suddenly as it comes it goes away after abt 5 minutes. I also have "slip disc; in L5 and s1.
Avatar f tn My children sleep through the vacuum. They sleep better (imo) with noise.
Avatar f tn I dreamt that I was trying to run away from these big machine robots and they were making these really loud beeping noises. The noise was so incredibly loud in my head that it seemed to be almost part of real life. Like I could hear it in my bedroom and not just in my dream. Anyway, the noises were scaring me so I tried to wake up and it worked but then I would doze back off into the same dream seconds later. This kept happening but it was becoming increasingly harder to wake myself up from it.
Avatar f tn m not sure if very loud noise can effect hearing.
Avatar n tn I've never heard that... Just the noise may startle them. I'm almost 29 weeks and still go shooting. My doctor says it's fine as long as you don't shoot something too powerful that'll make you fall.
Avatar n tn Your symptoms seem little strange. You might be probably having sleep paralysis, which occurs when you may go to sleep or may tend to wake up from sleep. It is a temporary phenomenon where in you are incapable of moving your body or even part of it physically but may try to shout loudly or seek someone’s help. It may be lasting for a few seconds to minutes. It can repeat once again if you sleep.
Avatar f tn Sounds like you have Sleep Paralysis, I have Sleep Paralysis and the same thing happens to me. Good news is it's not deadly, You will always wake up from it. You can talk to your doctor about it too.
Avatar f tn the strength of this command depends on how sure the body is that the mind are sleeping, this depends on how still you lie, if you lie very still the body is almost convinced that the mind is sleeping, and send out a very tiny signal which can easily be ignored by you and result in sleep paralysis with your mind awake, sleep paralysis feels almost like led on top of your body, and can easily be mistaken for someone pushing you against the bed. VERY SCAERY AND UNCOMFTABLE.!!!
Avatar m tn ve been sleeping, a loud noise disrupting my sleep makes me disoriented too. So, in response to your question, yes, I think it is normal for people who are sensitive to loud noises. My husband on the other hand can sleep through a thunder storm with thunder and lightening. He's not sensitive to loud noises. Have you tried taking melatonin to help you sleep? I take melatonin and find it helpful. Check with your doctor though before starting melatonin. I wish you well.
Avatar m tn I have had the tinnitus 24/7 for a couple of years now. I have never had a break from it but I am still hopeful one day it will disappear. I have 3 different high pitch sounds which two of them are not constant but rev up when I'm tired. I have always found that my tinnitus is louder when I'm fatigued. I was told that it's really important not to focus on your tinnitus or you could start pulling your hair out. Some people can get really depressed or anxious from tinnitus as well.
Avatar f tn s another similar phenomena called sleep paralysis. When you are in R.E.M sleep you can become awake while still being in the sleep patern so basicly you are aware but your body is still sleeping. Again this is normal and of course anxiety and stress will boost the frequencies of both falling sensation and sleep paralysis. Don't worry about it, it's not seizures nor any other disease. Don't let livia1881 scares you with myoclonus and seizures.
Avatar f tn Hi Cloey102, I'm responding to your post about ringing in the ears and anxiety. The term is tinnitus and it is a sound sensation of ringing that is only perceived by the person with tinnitus. I've had it for years myself and it's difficult to deal with on many days but it is also manageable. I find it comes on more when I feel anxiety coming on and am stressed or tired. It is also associated with hearing loss (mild or more) which is typically an inner ear damage issue.
Avatar f tn This sounds like night/sleep terrors and/or sleep paralysis, which feels surreal and even supernatural, but is fundamentally harmless. It could be that you're suffering more stress/anxiety in life at the moment. If it continues, you may also like to have yourself checked out. It may be that you're not getting quality sleep for whatever reason.
648910 tn?1290663083 i wear hearing aids, and when turned up loud the other noise drowns out the ringing. at night, i have to have a somewhat loud fan on or something otherwise my brain concentrates on the ringing too much and thus can't sleep. i wear headphones to listen to the tv/movies otherwise i can't make out a lot of words - it is just noise to my ears/brain. same with conversations. basically i have to cancel it out with another noise that isn't so irritating.
3143728 tn?1343008561 This sleep disorder is characterized by excessive daytime sleepiness, sleep paralysis, cataplexy where the person has episodes of loss of muscle function while awake, and automatic behavior. You will need to consult your primary care physician, who may schedule you for a polysomnogram (sleep test) to rule out sleep disorders and initiate appropriate therapy. Hope this helped and do keep us posted.
Avatar n tn The actual cause of sleep paralysis is not understood. But sleep paralysis can run in families and people who have narcolepsy. Sleep paralysis can be treated with clonazepam, Studies show that vitamin B12 improves sleep patterns but not enough evidence show prevention of sleep paralysis. Reducing stress and getting the proper amount of sleep may be beneficial. Learn to recognize your symptoms and the triggers of your sleep paralysis.
