at night, we'd like to sleep peacefully and restore energy.nevertheless, its difficult to find a person who has never encountered some strange and unpleasant sensations accompanying sleep....
.
.
.
SLEEP PARALYSIS
the person wakes up at night and cannot move.added to this are frightening hallucinations and a feeling that there is someone else in the room.in antiquity this state is associated with mischiefs of evil spirits.
.
.
WHY IT HAPPENS
normally when we fall asleep we are paralyzed so that we don't sleepwalk and such.with sleep paralysis our muscles "turn off" while the brain is awake.and they say its more likely when sleeping on the back.

HYPNAGOGIC HALLUCINATIONS
when a person is on the verge of sleeping but still awake,he sees weird pictures before his eyes.often these are scary faces and fantastic creatures..
.
.
.
WHY IT HAPPENS
this is one of a few types of hallucinations that mentally healthy people may have.children have them more often which could be the reason they don't want to go to sleep.such hallucinations might be due to stress or simply a good imagination.they can also appear if you go to bed drunk or are on some kind of drugs.

SLEEP WALKING
this state is the opposite of sleep paralysis--the consciousness is asleep but muscle paralysis does not occur.in their sleep people can walk,clean,or even leave the house which is often very dangerous and in the morning they don't remember anything.
.
.
.
.
WHY IT HAPPENS
somnambulism occurs in about 4.6-10.3% of population with children affected more often.the cause is still unknown as are method of treatment.

RECURRING DREAMS
probably everyone has had strange recurring dreams which constantly reproduce the same plot.
.
.
.
WHY IT HAPPENS
psychologists believe our brain uses such dreams to pay attention to something we didn't notice in our daily life. these stories will return until the situation is resolved.

OUT OF BODY EXPERIENCE
this is a neuropsychological phenomenon during which a person, half asleep and half awake sees himself from a place outside his body.for mystics and occultists, this confirms the existence of a soul.

.
.
.
WHY IT HAPPENS
the phenomenon is very difficult to study.while scientists know that the illusion of getting out of the body does exist,it is not clear how it works and how it arises. it is also unclear how to deal with this,yet some know how to enter this state deliberately.they do so to expand the boundaries of their cognitive capabilities.

This life we live is a mystery

SLEEP TALKING
usually the person who suffers from somniloquy(a fancy term for sleep talking)has no idea about it.this condition is absolutely not dangerous psychology.though a person with such a problem may worry about blurting out secrets.
.
.
.
WHY IT HAPPENS
men and children are more prone to this and the reason is stress.the persons psyche is trying to resist what he or she does not agree with in reality.
