What happens in the sleep paralysis is that while arousal system has brought you out of the REM phase, your body still is paralysed. This is the short phase of time when one gets dreams of being paralysed. Some people see themselves lying on the railway track with the train approaching, but can't move a muscle. There are experiences of being paralyzed while one can see and hear the surrounding.
This is definitely not something made up by your mind. It has a scientific basis to it.
Also on a fw occasions total paralysis, visions of a black cloud of some sort pinning me down an preventing me from calling out for help, sometimes lasting up to 5 minutes. I dont concentrate on the fear of the situation, rather more just trying to get up. Untill i started researching. Logical explanations, i didnt know what to believe. Anyone experiencing Similar situations, any advice would be greatly appreciated.
I know the feeling man, I'm 27 and have had bouts of sleep paralysis since the age of 13, when I lay down I feel it coming on by way of an electric like surge in my head, by that time I'm usually to week to move as it seems to drain all my energy, once I slip into paralysis I feel as though my whole body is being shocked, sometimes it hurts and then other times for whatever reason it feels really good, I also hear a wide range of noises ranging from loud ringing which is sometimes so lo
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.
Almost every night their entire body becomes paralyzed and stays that way most of the night. I think it has to do with low potassium levels. I think the symptoms vary for everyone and also depends on how low the levels are. From what I was told, my uncle could only absorb very little, if any potassium. I hope this helps! Good luck with everything. Keep us posted!!
I was only vaguely aware of my consciousness though and it seemed I was still flowing in and out of imaginative predicaments. The blood rushing and paralysis was real though. That was the only thing keeping me awake was that and my fear.
This kept happening until I eventually gave up and the guy next to me eventually stopped moving. I figured I'd wake up hours later and wonder about it then. I was too tired to fight it and just wanted to sleep.
Yes, about 7 hours of sleep per night is ok if you are also able to manage atleast 1-2 hours of sleep in daytime. Stress could be either mental or physical and end of day if you are in a run down state it could lead to sleep depravation, so try to relax and have lot of liquids. Alprazolam can be taken before bed time for few days. Do update on your doctor advise. Take care.
i think i had a mild episode of sleep paralysis lastnight. i could not move, my body was tingling, my heart beat was increased. i was able to come out of it and then tried to go back to sleep and it happened again for another few seconds and i as able to come out of it but it was hard. this happened another time, maybe 6 monthes ago and i do not want this to worsen.
ve experienced sleep paralysis many times ever since I started college but have never had any symptoms of further sleep problems or narcolepsy. It turns out, after doing pretty extensive research, that sleep paralysis can happen alone without being brought on by a sleep disorder. It can be brought on by stress, an off-balance sleep schedule or lack of sleep, and other things which can throw off your sleep cycle.
some nights I'd wake up, and be completely paralysed, only able to move my eyes. I wouldnt be able to speak, or move any other part of me. I'd have a great sense of fear, and It'd take a few minutes to come out and back to normal, then I could completely move and everything would be fine again, I'd just be abit shocked as to what just happened, I started to get this more and more, to the point where it was 6-10 times a night..so I cut out ALL caffine.
I'm a medical student in India. i had several episodes of sleep paralysis last years. but the problem is that when i try to move my limbs or body parts there some cracking pain inside my head. the pain is increased when i try harder and there will not be any movements. when i relax my body the paralysis will resolve and i wake up as like in a dread. this occur exactly when i'm about to sleep. when i try harder and harder to move body the pain increases and makes me uncomfotable.
Rapid eye movement behavior disorder (RBD): Acting out violent or dramatic dreams while in REM sleep.
I don't know if this could be it or not. Maybe see a doctor because that does not sound normal.
When something happens in our lives, the memory of it goes in deep, not forgetting, not healing, not making sense of it and then as the anniversary of it looms, it lets us know that there is still unfinished business in the form of physical symptoms and nightmares and sleep disturbances....We become afraid to sleep because in the still of the dark night a lot of times our minds run free, skipping and hopping over all the things in our lives that have not been dealt with...
hello.
My name is Alex.
I was diagnosed with aspergers syndrome when i was 12 and am currently 16.
I come from a family with a history of autism and my great uncle had both autism and epilepsy which led to him being in residential care the majority of his life.
m in need of medical assistance. However, when I have episodes of sleep paralysis or cataplexy (similar to sleep paralysis except the onset occurs during the day not when you're in bed, so you suddenly lose muscle tone and collapse), he pays no mind to it at all. From his perspective, I'm just taking a nap.
I hope that helps in understanding this phenomenon better.
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.

The leading cause of a terrible the reduced blood supply to the brain(sleep paralysis) when you sleep at night was that the blood flow is blocked due to the flexion of the neck.
