Cool stuff. I have have experienced once in a while too. The theory is that its like we get stuck in between the wakeful part of our brain, and the REM sleep. I have been working in a sleep lab for 10 years, so i love learning about sleep. I cant see when people have it on my studies, but we know when people sleep and wake up. We primarily diagnose sleep apnea and put CPAP on people.
Glad to hear you have found a way to control yourself when its happening. Thats all we can do is to let it pass. Keep rockin.
Exactly. How interesting that you have worked in a sleep laboratory, I would like to see what it looks like from the outside when that is happening. Surely everything looks normal, but inside you are suffering from fear 😂.
