I mean like, detects your brainwaves and shakes you awake if it detects you are awake but unable to move.

Like I can still slightly move my fingers during sleep paralysis, is there a way to use my tiny bit of control to activate a button, which then triggers a device that shakes me awake? 😆

🤔

Idk I keep getting sleep paralysis every night, feels so weird.

    It’s my understanding that everyone has sleep paralysis - the brain “switches off” the body (apart from essentials: breathing, heart beat etc) so you don’t come to grief acting out your dreams. What we call sleep paralysis is when you wake, but your body hasn’t been switched back on.

    I used to have horrible sleep paralysis nightmares quite often. But then I read about what it really is, and I stopped having them. It was like my brain realised it was out of sync and corrected itself.
