I suffer from a form of sleep paralysis whereby in my dreams, I am trying to wake up but I can't. I know im asleep and im basically trying and trying to open my eyes. Sometimes i even dream that i wake up but infact im still dreaming and then it happens all over again.
Its terrifying and often causes me to panic in my sleep before waking suddenly. I've looked into it more and essentially, when in sleep mode, the brain secretes a chemical that paralyses the body but my mind is still over-active and tries to wake me up causing a conflict.
Its scary shit

I had that once. Just once, and it shit me up for days. Horrible.
Can't your GP do anything for you?
