Night Terrors Of Mine

I suffer from Night Terrors, a parasomnia sleep disorder that prevents me from fully sleeping or waking. This video is almost a blur and disorientation to what I feel every night!

you are asleep during night terrors. stage 4 of sleep, the deepest of sleep.

[rwalford1979]

@jocf18 People who experience Night Terrors are never in REM sleep or the deepest sleep. They are only half asleep, in the earliest stages.

[jocf18]

@rwalford1979 then what you are having is not night terrors, because they occur during stage four.

[rwalford1979]

@jocf18 Again, this is incorrect. The sleep stages 1 through 3, previously known as stages 1 through 4, are collectively referred to as NREM, non-rapid eye movement, sleep. There are distinct electroencephalographic and other characteristics seen in each stage. Unlike REM sleep, there is usually little or no eye movement during this stage. Dreaming is rare during NREM sleep, and muscles are not paralyzed as in REM sleep.

[rwalford1979]

@jocf18 A night terror, is a parasomnia disorder characterized by extreme terror and a temporary inability to regain full consciousness. The subject wakes abruptly from slow-wave sleep, with waking usually accompanied by gasping, moaning, or screaming. It is often impossible to awaken the person fully, and after the episode the subject normally settles back to sleep without waking. They typically occur during non-rapid eye movement sleep.

This disorder is hell, my night terrors started 2 months ago. Mine was about someone being in my room waiting for me to fall asleep. It felt like some kind of demon was trying to possess me. Sometimes I stay up late and go to sleep with the tv on. I decided to try to sleep in the dark with no fear, but my night terrors came back worse. My most recent night terror was the dark being tried to strangle me, it just felt so real... I feel that whatever this thing is, it only comes to me in the dark.

I had a friend in Portland Oregon years ago, ensure I wouldnt judge her when she told me she was surrounded and attacked by demons. The girl was clinically depressed had mental issues and the like, but after hearing her story, I wasnt sure if it was real, or just a game for her. Point is, if you truly feel a possession, seek religious help (even if you dont believe) - it might help the terrors you have. This sounds more then just a dream to me.

How do you remember your night terrors? I'll try and try but since I'm just still half asleep when I wake up, I can't bring myself to right it down when it's fresh, so by morning it's gone. Any suggestions? Thanks:)

wow this is crazy. I get all kinds of nutty things happening to me during the night but it's always a funny trip, never really scary.

[jayswivlezz]

[martygangsta625]

Well, I was looking at Sleeping disorder videos and ive come to night terror as the most similar thing I have, pretty much once a week or more I feel like Im half awake half sleeping like I can open my eyes half way it feels and i feel paralyzed like I can't move or if I can very slowly and I feel very scared I always wake up after like 8 seconds of this happening and i wake up sweaty and scared I just want to know if anyone knows what I'm talking about so I don't feel so alone.

bro you got night terrors, then you transition to a night mare and possibly waking into a night terror, i have the night terrors but transition into blankness, i NEVER fall asleep during a night terror use all your will power to awaken, or use the words Jesus Christ it may take a few times but i find it works, you answered my question and that is can i prevent them, mine occur when transitioning to sleep, i find that this event may occur (for me) up to 6 times a night, full body vibration
