Sleep paralysis: causes, symptoms and treatment

What is sleep paralysis?

Sleep paralysis is a condition where a person is conscious but unable to move during the transition between wakefulness and sleep. It can cause temporary paralysis, such as a few seconds of inability to move or speak while experiencing pressure or choking.

Sleep paralysis episodes often involve hallucinations that are different from normal dreams, which can occur during sleep or upon waking.
