    I experience sleep paralysis and it is frightening. 😨 What techniques help people cope during and prevent episodes?

    Sleep paralysis: what helps during episodes

    My routine

    During episode Prevention
    Stay calm, breathe 😮💨 Remind yourself it is temporary
    Try wiggling a finger 🫳 Can break the paralysis
    Regular sleep schedule 🌙 Irregular sleep is a trigger
    Reduce stress 😌 Stress worsens episodes
    • Fixed wake time
    • Wind-down without screens
    • Talking about it openly

    How do you deal with sleep paralysis? 🛌
