My daughter is 16 years old and last night she awoke me from my sleep to come sleep with her, she said she went to bed and fell asleep,and awoke from her sleep in a parralize state with her eyes wide open, and seeing a very creepy man. She was very terrified, she said it felt like she couldn't move or scream,etc.

They are accompanied by sleep paralysis which is difficult to break out of and I often feel panicked as I cannot breathe.
I am always, without fail tired when I wake up in the morning regardless of how much sleep I get. I have just come to accept that this is the way that I am. It has been awesome reading that other people also experience these things. I saw the mention of sleep apnea and narcolepsy?

Sleep paralysis occurs when you may go to sleep or may tend to wake up from sleep. It is a temporary phenomenon where you are incapable of moving your body or even part of it physically but keep trying 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 and there is no physical injury to body, but you will be probably frightened with sweating and increased heart beat with shortness of breath.

Do you have sleep paralysis with them or night terrors? Do you keep a dream journal? Are the nightmares interfering with your life by causing you to be afraid to do things or not get enough sleep? If so, I would recommend talking with your Mother/Father to see if you can see a Doctor.
Certain foods can make it hard to sleep (caffeine being one).
I do understand it might be diffucult with the baby but need to manage a bit. Sleep deprivation itself can cause these sleep terrors. It is good to consult a neurologist and also a sleep doctor to get evaluated. Alprazolam at night time can be helpful. Do not worry and be relaxed. Take care and update.

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.

My daughter is 2 and she has night terrors and i don't know what to do does anyone have any suggestions
Night Terrors is a parasopnia disorder which will can happening on the first three hours of sleep. When that happens people will not remember their terror when they wake up but whenever they wake up their heart ratewill be high sky. Also whenever someone is having a terror they can be crying in their sleep, swinging punches and many other just to try to defend themselves. But once again a person will not remember what he or she dream about that terrorize them in their sleep.

My son too. But My guy opens his eyes and sits up in his crib. My guy will go right back to sleep when we get him and give him a bottle. I'm asking my pedi when he has his 1yr check-up but I think it's his teeth and bad dreams. It doesn't happen every night but at least 2xs a wk. I went through this with my oldest daughter and it's funny because my youngest his personality is alot like hers they are both very headstrong and independant my other 2 are very cuddly and loving!
