Sleep Problem, Pissing Me Off

Recommended Posts

Gonna try my best to explain this, see how it turns out.

Every now and then (for years) i will be laying in bed asleep and all of a sudden wake up. Well not wake up but its like my brain wakes up. Im fully conscious (or so i think) but i cant move. I can see my bedroom but im not sure if imy eyes are open or not.

At first i would panic and get distressed, trying to shout but i couldnt open my mouth or make a sound. Now i dont panic, i instead focus and with what seems like tremendous effort and focus i can start to move my foot slowly at first until i literally shake myself awake by moving my foot up and down at the ankle. All in all its still pretty fucking scary stuff.

Any idea's? I feel pretty stupid reading that back through as it sounds crazy :S:D

To your original problem ..... It's because your brain it too small to be able to operate your eye lids and any other muscles at the same time

Sounds like standard sleep paralysis to me. I get it every so often. The problem I have with it is that I can't tell the difference between what is real and what I'm dreaming.
Waking myself up to get out of it is a bitch too.

Edit to add: This is what they called an "old Hag" spirit back in the "old days". They thought you had a spirit sitting on your chest holding you down.

And no, you're not crazy...
