Unable to move in sleep

2017-03-17 06:00:49
Sometimes, I see nightmares and weird figures in my dreams trying to attack me. When I try to wake up and call someone for help, I'm unable to move though I'm partially conscious. I can feel people around me and want to call them. But cannot move or speak. It longs from 3-5 minutes. Once that happened 5 times at a stretch.

Hello. I would want to know if you are a  low blood pressure person, this happens when you are in stress.. and it's kind of a fit. You would need to visit a psychologist for helping yourself through this matter.
