I have something like that, ive been having it very frequently lastly, its that i want to wake up but i cant, i can hear things go around me, i can hear the people in my house, but i cant move. if i move i get very tired because it takes alot of energy to do so. the only controll that i have over my body is when i breathe. so i start breathing hard and repeatedly to hope someone would think something is wrong with me and wake me up, but sometimes it doesent happen and i have no idea how much it will last this time. the real problem is when i have mucus in my nose and my mouth is closed. This happened to me right now today. i coudnt breathe niether through my nose and my mouth was full of mocus and coudnt parsly breathe anything through my mouth. i was so scared i thought that i would die but suddenly woke up. ussualy when i fight to wake up when im having this and i finally wake up, i have an extreeme sleepyness and just close my eyes, but asoon as i close my eyes, it strikes again! it once happened to me over 5 times! i dont know what is happening to me, if someone knows please tell me how is the desease called, what happens, why it happens and how to prevent it, thanks :) - written 8 months ago
