Sleep apnea itself typically does not cause feelings of being unable to move or being held down; however, individuals may experience sensations of suffocation or gasping for air during episodes, which can lead to feelings of panic or paralysis upon waking. This sensation might be related to sleep paralysis, a separate condition where a person is temporarily unable to move or speak while waking up or falling asleep. If these feelings occur frequently, it's essential to consult a healthcare professional for a proper diagnosis and treatment.
No it is not true
Sleep Paralysis
It hurts, and your hands go a bit stiff and you cant move them much.
they don't sleep they stay awake all night long, and they can stay awake for more then a 1000 years. but they can fake sleep very well and you would never know when they are watching your every waking move.
No. That is called temporary sleep paralisys.
I read around because i experienced the same thing earlier today after waking up from a nap. its called Sleep Paralysis. Apparantly it has something to do with your Brain waking up before your body. Its often accompanied with the feeling of not being able to breath, however even though you can't feel it you are indeed breathing. Usually it takes a sound or trying to move a finger then an arm and so on to wake up. From what i read it can be caused by stress or not having good "sleep hygiene".
The phenomenon you're describing is known as sleep paralysis. It occurs when a person is temporarily unable to move or speak while falling asleep or waking up, often accompanied by vivid hallucinations or a feeling of pressure. Sleep paralysis happens during the transition between sleep stages, particularly between REM sleep and wakefulness, when the body remains in a state of temporary paralysis to prevent acting out dreams.
This is mostly due to your sleeping position. It's your body's way of telling you that the sleep position is not comfortable.
