Sounds boring, I know. I am barely starting to take my core classes... I hope I like it.. 
I changed it from Finance. 
My family told me the same thing. They didn't get that it's not really a 'sleep' issue. It's a weird brain thing.Ennovi wrote:You forgot the "freaked out and scared part"..

I researched on it alot as well. Very interesting stuff. I shared it with all my family who has never experienced it. All they told me was to get some sleep!

It's hard to explain it to someone without them questioning your sanity. The best way to control it seems to be by taking a nap sometime during the day or early evening. It allows your brain to get the rest it needs - especially if you sleep in short spurts anyway.Luv2Skydive wrote:That sounds like my dream a few weeks ago but luckily it's isolate. It's only happened twice in the past year......but it's one of the weirdest sensations. I tried to explain it to my husband (who can fall asleep in 2 seconds flat) and he just looked confused.trainer101 wrote:What happens in a sleep paralysis episode is your brain disconnects from your body - which is normal, by the way - it's natures way of keeping you from physically acting out your dreams.

Have you ever attempted to take control of it?

I wasn't always this way with sleep......it got worse after I had kids and more stress.......how abour you guys?
Hopefully, I won't hate my job. 
I don't remember any particularly stressful triggering event. My head always seems to have a million simutaneous thoughts though. My friends and partners make fun of me for it. Explains why I can be online til 4am and still get up early for business, I guess.Luv2Skydive wrote:I graduated years ago.....1998 with a teaching degree and figured out within 2 years that I don't like kids if they aren't mind.
