Hi, I'm 15 yrs old

Sometimes when I'm sleeping I get these episodes where frist I hear a rining in my ears, then my heart races real fast and during this process I can't move or talk. Lasts about 30 secs happens sometimes now more often though

I have or rather had something similar to that.

I would wake up in the middle of the night in a semi-comatose state, not being able to move. I was half aware of what was going on around me.

The main problem was was that my quilt cover would be over my mouth stopping efficient ventilation. As I can't move that's a big problem.

BUT, I would try as much as I can to move, mentally force my muscles to move and after about 10 seconds I would jolt the covers away - also the effort that it took for me to move would cause me to breathe in a lot of air.

So next time this happens, just concentrate on moving your muscles.
