Does anyone else get it? I have chronic Sleep Paralysis, and let me tell you it sucks ass.
I guess its considered a disease, I wouldn't really consider it a disease but on Monday night I got it 5 times before I actually feel asleep for good.
If you don't know what it is here is some background from Wiki:
"Physiologically, sleep paralysis is closely related to the paralysis that occurs as a natural part of REM (rapid eye movement) sleep, which is known as REM atonia. Sleep paralysis occurs when the brain awakes from a REM state, but the body paralysis persists. This leaves the person fully conscious, but unable to move. The paralysis can last from several seconds to several minutes "after which the individual may experience panic symptoms and the realization that the distorted perceptions were false."
It fucking sucks, mine usually happens as I am falling asleep or during a dream. I can always tell when its coming too because I get this small buzzing and then I wake up and I can't move and I feel like there is a presence in my doorway. However, I have gotten it so much that I can wake myself up from it. I don't know how but I have to fight with myself to move something and I finally do and I wake up.
I just want to know if anyone else gets it, because I have it horribly.
