sleep paralysis voices

Hi, suffered sleep paralysis for decades now. No voices etc, just paralysis. WHY doesn't the medical world take an interest in this phenomena, which is more common than I think is believed? It is left to the realm of cultural myths, alien abduction theories, generalized medical mumbling about anxiety - the definition of anything they do not understand or think will get them into trouble by not investigating.

When this first started happening to me the voices were accompanied by that overwhelming sleep paralysis type fear of a presence but without the paralysis. The voices are very clearly malevolent and the feeling, vibes and energy coming from them is nothing that can described as anything less than pure evil. This goes on back and forth for about 20 minutes before it stops and I can finally fall sleep. The voices dont happen so much anymore...

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.

During the process i am paralysed but fully aware of whats happening(its like i become fully conscious from my semi conscious state),i actually want to scream for help but im unable to do so.its almost like sleep paralysis except mine is accompanied with a violent shaking of my brain(feels like this) or my head and an intense feeling of terror.i dont lose consciousness afterwards rather i wake up completely. Sometimes ill hear voices and it often feels like an evil experience.

As he got older this turned into sleep paralysis and seeing horrble things like the devil. I have had him in 2 sleep studies and he does have two unusual sleep disorders. When he is stressed out it gets worse. When things are going good he doesn't have it at all. It was explainted me to me regarding the sleep walking that he lacks the switch in the brain that puts us all in a form of sleep paralaysis so we cannot act out our dreams whie we are sleep.

I have been suffering from sleep paralysis for a long time and I know that it could be a medical thing...but need reassurance. I hear these awful voices saying awful things and I just need help. I don't know what to do and I hate it.

but I was in my room laying down, the room looked the exact same way it was when I woke up... I was dreaming I was hearing voices outside my house and sirens and cars going by, and I couldn't wake up... I COULD LITERALLY feel my eyes trying to PRY open! But I couldn't! It's like I was subconsciously awake, but my body was paralyzed and in this strange state! I finally woke myself up and it was 4:30am... my stomach was in KNOTS! Paranoid feeling, felt like I was going CRAZY!

Are you experiencing paralysis when you hear voices or see people? Do the people ever get closer enough to touch you?

You may be having hypnopompic hallucinations. Hypnopompia occurs upon waking, and may also be accompanied by sleep paralysis. It may be a direct result of alcohol or drug use, or could be due to insomnia, anxiety, stress or other factors. Try relaxation techniques before bedtime to help the mind shut down. You can also indulge in meditation and yoga.

It is very difficult to precisely confirm a diagnosis without examination and investigations and the answer is based on the medical information provided.

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.

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.

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.

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.

I actually get sleep paralysis as well... It won't harm your baby at all.

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.

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.

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?

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.
