does anybody else do this

vilifiend	Date: September 22, 2008 @ 2:18 AM for like the last week i will wake up in the middle of the night... and i will feel extremely intoxicated and flop around and not know whats going on or what i am doing. it takes a long while to realize i have been flopping around like a drunken fish and then i cant go back to sleep.
zedsalt	Date: September 22, 2008 @ 3:51 AM It sounds like maybe your sleep paralysis...that mechanism by which your body prevents itself from physically acting our your dreams...is out of whack. I'd look into this further, if it was happening to me, try to find some info about it on the net or even talk to a doctor, because it could become a lot worse than just an annoyance. Seriously, that ain't right.
vilifiend	Date: September 22, 2008 @ 5:43 AM woah crazy... yeah that sounds like it... this time around before i 'woke up' i started having hallucinations...
vilifiend	Date: September 22, 2008 @ 5:48 AM its pretty weird. kind of like a slow motion seizure.
NickSawyer	Date: September 22, 2008 @ 6:11 AM I have that every once in a while. I love it though.
vilifiend	Date: September 22, 2008 @ 6:27 AM been researching it... it definitely sounds a lot like it. im going to ask my doctor next visit in a couple days i have a theory actually... i think it may be a medication interaction
gimpnipples	Date: September 22, 2008 @ 6:36 AM I think its the Old Hag. Bad news! http://paranormal.about.com/library/weekly/aa112000a.htm Shes fucking up your Christmas!
vilifiend	Date: September 22, 2008 @ 6:38 AM ...lol wow
vilifiend	Date: September 22, 2008 @ 6:43 AM i dunno maybe the effects vary but its not like i cannot move... i move... but its more like some kind of seizure.
K3VIN	Date: September 22, 2008 @ 7:45 AM sometimes i get this.. in my old house once i slept in my basement by myself at like 11 in the morning so i was already overslept but i remember dreaming that i was in the basement and not being able to move and feeling like something was coming downstairs then id awake in the same position and be able to move.

I was thinking that maybe the sleep paralysis that everyone is supposed to have isn't always working for you, and that perhaps that's what's waking you...still in motion and lacking the cognition, briefly, needed to make yourself stop. I figure since our eyes move rapidly as we dream, other movements might have the same fast, spastic quality to them. The converse of this...waking, but still experiencing dreamstate sleep paralysis...is REALLY common, from what I've heard/read. They even have a term for it: "the succubus/incubus" effect. One wakes, unable to move, feeling like there's a weight on top of him/her...but there's also often a sexual aspect to the feeling. Reportedly, this also covers the feeling of someone just sitting on the edge of one's bed. I'm not sure what they call that. "The incubus/succubus who'd just rather have a nice conversation for once effect", maybe?
