By Chief Procrastinator | March 30, 2010
This article analyses sleep paralysis, the things that it is caused by and the available remedies and solutions. Take a few minutes to go through it and I’m sure you will find it to be both informative and helpful.
The one thing that I hate most about hallucinatory sleep paralysis is that at the time it occurs the visions and sensations I’m feeling are just too real. In such cases you tend to panic especially when you realize you cannot move or even scream.
What you did not know is that is exactly what the body is trying to prevent. In trying to move you are attempting to respond to something that is you are seeing in a dream. There is no telling the amount of harm that we would do to ourselves and others if we reacted to everything that went on in our dreams. The reason this happens is because the transition from being fully asleep to being fully awake is meant to be a gradual process.
If for some reason your brain wakes up in the middle of a dream you will have a hard time trying to separate reality from fiction and so the paralysis sets in. Having experienced a number of these episodes myself describing it as being uncomfortable is quite an understatement. That is one thing that I’ve come to notice about sleep paralysis, the sensations are just too real to ignore.
So is there anything that can be done about it? Of course there are many causes to this and the solutions are just as many too. The approach though is quite simple and it is to avoid anything that will likely interfere with your regular sleep routine. Stimuli that tends to suddenly jostle the brain out of sleep. Amongst some of the things that you can avoid are excessive light. Sound and going to sleep without emptying your bladder.
You can find extensive and comprehensive remedies and solutions to this condition at any one of these:
