The fucking worst.
It’s your brain being confused. It hasn’t gone to sleep yet but your muscles have. So the brain is like: yo leg, you dead? And fucking jolts it. The. He’s like “oh, kk we good, we’re going to sleep btw”. And then you sleep.
It’s brought on by anxiety/fight or flight response. Your body is keeping you from sleeping in case your life is in danger.
And then directly into sleep paralysis
I love this explanation so much
This is like ELI5 but better. I just can’t put my finger on why
It’s relatable and told in a humorous way, it kinda feels like a nice relative telling you a story as a kid
