Sleep problem
I have problem in sleeping , i get sleep paralise. Most of the people sleep paralise once, but i get it again and agai n the same day. While sleeping sometimes i dream like i am on my bed, i can see my arms and legs and i feel like something is catching me. When i hear a noise while sleeping or some one calls me while sleeping a wake up suddenly with high heart beats. I dont think there is any fear disturbing because i didnt have any incident to fear.
