You're trapped in an inert body, fully awake with an unknown thing in the room.

Hi Sundaze! Yes the medical term is hypnogogic summat. It's like being stone dead but still conscious. :yikes: Terryfying!!

Sounds scary.
How do you know you’re awake? It could be a dream.

Used to suffer with them many years ago. The episodes were quite random. I'd think "if there's a sudden fire I can't flee, I'm paralysed".
When I finally learnt how to overcome them quite successfully, I stopped getting any attacks in the first place. :dunno: :pmsl: :pmsl:

It's horrific.
I suffer less now than I used to but if I'm stressed or ill then I can have 2 or 3 attacks in one night

Probably!
You could say that of any weird phenomena tho.
The attacks stopped completely eventually tfft.

Our Abs gets dreadful fugues, she told us. Those must be even scarier.
