Suffering from ghosts, ask netizens for help.

I'm just so tired. I'll forward you a little explanation about the truth of "ghost pressing bed"

The ghost presses the bed, which means that when you sleep, you suddenly feel unconscious but your body can't move. Actually, you have a sleep disorder. The phenomenon of "ghost crushing the body" belongs to a symptom of sleep paralysis in sleep neurology. During sleep, the patient is half awake and half asleep, and the brain waves are awake. Some people will also have hallucinations, but the muscle tension of the whole body is minimized.

Definition 1: nightmare

When people are sleeping, they suddenly feel as if there is a thousand pounds of weight on their bodies, and they can't breathe. They seem to wake up and want to shout, but they can't move. People are confused and frightened. It's as if there is a transparent thing pressing on them, coupled with dreams, giving them a name called "pressing ghosts." In fact, this is called "nightmare" in medicine.

Like dreaming, nightmares are also a physiological phenomenon. When a person suddenly wakes up from a dream, a part of the nerve center of the brain has woken up, but the nerve center that dominates the muscles has not fully woken up, so even if he feels uncomfortable, he can't move. At this time, if someone wakes him or pushes him, the nightmare will disappear immediately.

In fact, this phenomenon is very common. For example, when we just wake up, we can't completely swing our fists; Many people have to wait a few minutes after waking up, which is why the central nervous system works out of sync.

Lying on your back, being covered with a thick quilt or putting your hands on your chest, being too nervous during the day and overeating at dinner are all the reasons for nightmares. If readers are careful, they will find that people who are "haunted" are lying on their backs. If they sleep on their side and avoid the above incentives, nightmares will not happen. Sometimes, just after a dream, I associate the lack of intuition with the dream. Maybe you are familiar with the term ghost bed. People have had various explanations for ghost beds. Growing up, the most authoritative, scientific, supportive and convincing explanation I have heard is "You just fell asleep, and you may have inadvertently put your hand on your chest, which increased the burden of breathing." Some people are accompanied by cold sweat, lack of oxygen and even hallucinations caused by rapid heartbeat. These are all caused by bad sleep habits. Of course, it does not rule out that some people have sleep problems due to organic diseases, and they will die suddenly in severe cases. "

Definition 2: Sleep paralysis

The so-called "ghost pressure" is definitely not a "ghost" pressure bed, let alone a "ghost" obsession. In fact, it is a disease of sleep disorder. The phenomenon of "ghost crushing the body" belongs to a symptom of sleep paralysis in sleep neurology. At this time, the patient is half awake and half asleep, and the amplitude of brain waves is also awake. Some people will also have hallucinations, but the muscle tension of the whole body is minimized, which is similar to the "paralyzed" state, and the whole body can't move, just like being put on a golden bell jar, which is what most people call a "ghost."

The patients with "cataplexy narcolepsy" often have the situation that "ghosts crush their bodies". Such patients can fall asleep at any time, showing a state of being half awake and half asleep at any time, and often have "sleep hallucinations" and dream of strange people, things and things. When the patient is awake, whenever he is excited, laughing or angry, he will suddenly feel weak and fall down.

Our sleep cycle is from falling asleep, shallow sleep, deep sleep, deep sleep, and finally into the "rapid eye movement (dreaming) stage". Sleep paralysis is mainly due to the early appearance of rapid eye movement, which leads to the uncoordinated rapid eye movement stage. In fact, in the rapid eye movement stage, the body is essentially at rest, and the connection signal with the brain is temporarily interrupted. This is a defensive measure, so that the human body will not realize the dreams in real life. For example, when dreaming of hitting people, it will not really act, and it will not punch and kick people at the bedside.

When the sleep nerve is paralyzed, the brain recovers from sleep rest, and it is too late to reconnect with the body, which makes people half asleep and half awake, and dreams are intertwined with reality, resulting in disharmony between the body and the brain. At this time, the whole body muscle tension is the lowest, so it will cause you to remember, but you can't get up; I want to exert myself, but I have no strength at all. This is the most common situation of "ghost pressing the bed".

Generally speaking, under the circumstances of excessive pressure, anxiety, nervousness, extreme fatigue, insomnia, lack of sleep or jet lag, sleep will enter the rapid eye movement (dreaming) stage ahead of time, and there will be a situation of "ghost pressing the bed"-sleep paralysis. This happens to people of any age, mostly in adolescence, and few people happen continuously. Unless it happens frequently, you need to seek the help of a sleep doctor. As long as you know this symptom, you don't have to worry too much.

According to a research report in the United States, 40% to 50% people will experience sleep paralysis at least once in their lives, and the proportion is not low. Therefore, when you are possessed by ghosts, you don't have to worry, and don't go to the so-called "master" to solve your bad luck. Knowing the truth of sleep can make you feel at ease and sit back and relax.
