weird sleeping problem

Has anybody heard of this problem I have? It only happens when i'm sleeping and i'm about to wake up. Its the closest feeling to death I have ever had. My mind is awake but I cant move my body or talk or anything, I cant even feel myself breathe. I can move my eyes a bit tho except their like jumping up and down so I see everything jumping up and down. I hear its called "sleeping awake" but I cant find anything on it. Anyone know anything about this? I'd like to know, I cant afford to go to a doctor.

Um well Ihave experienced something similar to that... I will be sleeping and I am awake inside, and I will be trying to wake myself up, but its impossible. Like I will be twitching and whatnot and really trying to force myself awake, yet I cant do it.
Anyways... Its not really the same but anyways...

thats kinda weird... I can immagine that must be scarry!!

That happens to me every blue moon, but it's like the worst feeling in the world. It's like I'm awake, but still asleep and I have to try and force myself to wake up. What I do now is just sit there for a second just going with the flow of things and then just focus on one area of m body to move. Cause with me if I can move whatever part of my body I will wake up. It's hasn't been happening lately though.

the problem you have is called "sleep inertia" which is an adult sleeping disoder and should be checked out..... sometimes it is only temporary but i would still get it checked out anyway.

i've heard it called "sleep paralysis". It can be associated with sleep apnea which can be a serious condition.

That happens during the time you sleep, I get that when I try to wake up from a nightmare.

I also get something else strange: When I'm going to sleep there is this state where I'm between waking and sleeping, and the only thing I feel is my head, and my breathing chest. I don't feel the rest of me. It's strange. But sometimes that's the best time to talk to me if you can do so without waking me up... because everything goes straight to my brain, without distraction

Yeah I do that, but I've found that if I lay on my back I think alot more than when I lay on my side or stomach. So I fall asleep alot faster if im laying the right way.

ummm usually i see it is a demon attack call me crazy if you want to, but it happens to me and many other christians, some of who can actually see their attacker. if it happens to me and i rebuke it in jesus' name it goes away. if someone near me (like hubby) is having the problem i rebuke it off him.
