Re: Sleep disorders

Understandable :)

The first I can recall was my first year of college. I've had most of my other symptoms, including sleep attacks, since I was a child, though. It's possible I had the hallucinations before too and don't remember. (In fact, I suspect this may be the case.)

They're not frequent. I have noticed that they are loosely, though not strictly, correlated with periods of stress. They almost exclusively happen when I wake up in the middle of the night, or occasionally when waking from daytime naps; I don't recall ever having them when waking normally in the morning. In fact, they sometimes give the sense that they are what woke me up. If it makes a difference, I can almost always tell when I'm dreaming, but these never feel like dreams at all. They feel more like panic attacks, in the way that you have this incredible certainty that something is real or happening, and you know it isn't good. If that makes any sense, at least. I'm not sure how helpful that is!

More helpful than you think. :) Thank you for sharing that with me, it does actually go a long way toward my understanding of the condition to hear people's experiences with it, and this is a comparatively rare one.

Cheers, OP. I hope you can continue to manage this, and that your quality of sleep in the future is good.
