I can t move when I wake up, what should I do?

Because it has not entered deep sleep, the cerebral cortex is in the stage of confusion, and there is no hindrance to the body.

This is a ghost press, commonly known as a "ghost press", which is medically known as nightmare or sleep paralysis, and is a sleep disorder.

1. Performance: "Ghost press" is manifested in sleep, suddenly feeling that the whole body cannot move, the body is involuntary to call by oneself, sometimes hallucinations, chest tightness, panic, fast heartbeat, inability to breathe and frequent death. It is as if something is pressing on the body, making people breathless, as if they are awake but not awake and not asleep, they can't shout when they want to, they can't move if they want to, they feel puzzled and frightened, so they are considered to be "ghost pressing the bed" or "ghost pressing the body".

In fact, nightmares, like dreams or frightening dreams, are a normal physiological phenomenon that has nothing to do with ghosts and has no adverse effects on physical health.

2. The mechanism of nightmare or sleep paralysis is:

When we just fall asleep or are about to wake up, it is the sleep cycle when we enter deep sleep and begin to dream, skeletal muscles are in a state of extremely low tension except for respiratory muscles and eye muscles, at this time, such as waking up due to nightmares, a part of the nerve center of the brain has been awakened, but the nerve center innervating the muscles has not fully woken up, resulting in the central nervous system work out of sync, resulting in the above-mentioned phenomenon of not listening to the command of human consciousness. At this point, if someone wakes him up or pushes him, the nightmare will disappear immediately.

3. Causes and triggers of nightmares or sleep paralysis:

Nightmares or sleep paralysis are symptoms caused by the brain system not resting enough, often due to overexcitement or mental stress. It usually occurs during the day when the mind is overstressed, stressed, overtired, irregular work and rest, insomnia, anxiety, overeating, and poor sleeping posture (such as lying on your back, with a thick cover or hands on your chest).

4. Prevention and control: 1. Attention should be paid to adjusting the mentality and avoiding tension or anxiety. At the same time, pay attention to the regular work and rest, take enough rest when it is time to rest, don't let yourself be too tired, don't stay up late, and maintain a normal routine will usually reduce the chance of happening.

But don't be too snooze, which is more likely to cause sleep disorders.

2. Pay attention to your sleeping posture and avoid poor sleeping postures such as lying on your back or with your hands on your chest.

3. Appropriate physical exercise: exercise can regulate and improve the excitatory and inhibition process of the brain, adjust the brain function, enhance the regulatory function of the autonomic nervous system, and promote the recovery of neurological rate disorders. Outdoor activities should be plentiful.

The feeling of exertion after physical exercise can be easily improved by sleeping, and it will also be very comfortable.

3. Drugs**:

When there is tension or anxiety, anti-anxiety drugs such as diazepam and propranolol can be used appropriately. Antidepressants have been reported to be effective for sleep paralysis.

Some people call it a ghost press, but it's because your body is extremely tired, but your brain is extremely excited, and that's why this kind of limb incongruity happens.
