If This Happens In Your Sleep, Wake Yourself Up Immediately

[@UmatsuObossa]

I actually had a nightmare once that my dad shot me. I woke up with MASSIVE chestpain as if I'd really been shot, and feeling like I had not been breathing, but it went away after a couple of seconds. I really think it was just the stress from the dream. I could easily see how a nightmare could give someone a heart attack.

[@jasminerivers7446]

I had a nightmare where I got stabbed and basically the same deal. I'm honestly not that surprised by this.

[@LazyMode21]

I had the same nightmares, like it happened twice 😱

[@plague_doctor0237]

I wasn't shot in a dream but I can confirm that dreams can be excrusciatingly painful, I had needles stabbed in the palm of my hand in a dream one time and I woke up with an extremely sore hand, genuinely burned when it was touched, and it lasted for half an hour

I belong to the Hmong ethnic group, and when I first learned about SUNDS (Sudden Unexplained Nocturnal Death Syndrome), it was known by a different name and acronym. SUNDS was also associated with SADS (Sudden Arrhythmic Death Syndrome). While Grill jokes about Freddy Krueger, these terrifying deaths inspired Wes Craven to create A Nightmare on Elm Street. This is why I am passionate about learning more about these tragic deaths.

[@ferretyluv]

I learned about the Hmongs and SADS (I learned it as Sudden Adult Death Syndrome, as opposed to Sudden Infant Death Syndrome) in college. The general consensus was that it was genetics combined with the stress of being a refugee.

[@worawatli8952]

I'm from Thailand and we called it "ไหลตาย"(Laitai), directly translated "slip dead", and I've just learnt that this tales of ghost going to get you if you eat and sleep at the wrong time is exactly the same throughout regions.

Something like this almost killed me. I've had sleep paralysis off and on my whole life, and this was not sleep paralysis. I felt like I was buried alive and suffocating to death. It was so traumatic I've developed claustrophobia ever since. It's likely a combination of sleep apnea and acid reflux causing suffocating, which causes cardiac arrest.

[@Thebrighestsunx]

me too, it happens like 2 times a year and lasts for 2-3 weeks a time, it sucks.

[@3_or_more_characters.]

sounds like this sucks

[@SilveniumTheDrifter]

Yep. Gastroparesis, GERD, and sleep apnea (120 - 160 interruptions per hour) here. Was trying to use a cpap, but, still feeling like I didn't have enough air. I've just taken to sleeping with someone who's used to my screaming and uncomfort at night, and wakes me up. XD

[@MtbHunxho]

@@Thebrighestsunx facts i havent had these issues in several years and i mainly would say it could possibly be due to diet more than anything and what u eat too cause i used to be just like u having this issue at least 2-3 times a year at random never the same time but i started changing my diet due to sports and general health and nevee had this issue again im not saying its gon cause it can happen at anytime but so far its helped me stay away from it completely and also take control of ur mind and thought try to control ur dreams or not have any at all if that makes sense

[@MaesterTasl]

A lot of this very much seems to overlap with sleep apnea. Mix that with not being able to move due to sleep paralysis, or just too much alcohol so you pass out rather than sleep and that can be a recipe for disaster. Eating before bed can increase acid reflux. The acid vapor can cause your airway and sinuses to inflame thus increasing your chances of sleep apnea or making the symptoms worse. Breathing and sleeping is a lot trickier than it should be all things considered!

I've been waking up from nightmares for the past 2 weeks. It's always a nightmare where I can't move, when I wake up the left side of my body feels like there's no bloodflow. I don't eat a heavy meal before sleep and I am not stressed. This video got me to make a doctors appointment 😅😅

[@thedude5295]

I can speak from experience that escaping a night terror is as easy as wiggling your toes. It took me almost 2 decades of having them to realize this because I would always try to raise my head or my upper body. I was always able to ultimately escape it, but it was a herculean effort sometimes. But once I figured out the toe wiggle and remembered to do it, I have movement of my legs in like 2 seconds and I can use them to kick myself out of it.

[@adriandave9307]

Thai workers suffered from it in this story, not just Laotian Hmong and it is noted in the video as also occurring amongst Filipino people as well. My advice would be to avoid eating a large meal before bed, build cardio, and monitor yourself for the symptoms mentioned at the end of the video. As you get older consider having a doctor do an ECG to check your heart and inform them if you are in this risk group so you can better monitor and manage the condition if you have it and if you don't... well then you're fine.

[@gts560]

Elaborate, cuz that sounds interesting

[@JanaSzIsBasicGlitch]

@gts560 oh yes, sorry. I forgot, but I wanted to write you.... SO IT IS NOT FROM MY HEAD, but story goes like that: Dozens of Southeast Asian refugees in America died for unknown reasons in their sleep during the 1980s. The mysterious deaths were usually among young men in their 20s and 30s from the Hmong ethnic group, and affected a large enough segment of this population to alarm public health experts. The people suffering from this puzzling ailment were typically refugees from Laos, a small, landlocked country in Southeast Asia. The Hmong minority group had been persecuted in Laos after they were recruited by the CIA to fight North Vietnamese soldiers during the Vietnam War. More than 30,000 Hmong soldiers helped the U.S. fight communism in the northern highlands where they lived, but died at a rate 10 times higher than their American counterparts. The nightmare on elmstreet guy got inspired by that. Also those people tought that it is about some evil spirit, that hunts them down. Personally I think that it was too much for them tough. Not only wholeigration, but certain people not being exactly trustful of them and maybe underlying guilt is f. Too much for everyone...

I am a Filipino and i usually experience Bangungot every time. I never have dream anything but nightmares, if there is no nightmare in my sleep, its just nothingness. Everytime nightmare attacks me or shall i say in my language "Nabangungotan" i usually wake up immidiately causing always me having a unhealthy sleep hours due to these incidents. But there are things that i experience as always when i am getting these "Bangungot" I have difficulty breathing, i have a heavy chest after waking up as if something heavy just weighed on me. Sudden Shake feeling that i cannot explain since it occurs randomly but rarely. I usually avoid Bangungot like the one that is mentioned in the video. Shaking your toe. Tbh in order to wake up from a nightmare (bangungot) is usually trying to know what body part is partially awake. And mostly your toe is that specifically partially awake. You shake it enough just to disturb your other sleeping body parts until it reaches the brain to wake you up fully. I do not know if when i can escape this but i have several close call because of these incidents.

I have sleep paralysis on an approximately weekly basis, though it fluctuates a lot. Some episodes have lasted actual minutes, which feels like an absolute eternity.

Like pretending we can all understand him, like Groot or something.

I'm more concerned about dreaming of bathrooms. I'm pretty sure that's half the reason I learned how to lucid dream. Couple days ago when I was dreaming, I noticed that I kept going towards bathrooms.

When I first heard about this phenomena I actually had a genetic test and they found that I had a high genetic risk of a condition that I thought sounded plausible as an explanation. It’s called SADS not SAD (Seasonal Affective Disorder) but SADS (Sudden Arrhythmic Death Syndrome). It’s related to Brughda Syndrome and has similar symptoms and risk factors. It causes sudden death in otherwise healthy people in their sleep from electrical issues in the heart leading to fainting spells, palpitations, and sleep paralysis. Overeating, stress, and alcohol increase risk factors. Luckily all my tests have come back negative so far but I may be a carrier so my children will have to be careful and possibly tested for it. Personally I think it fits the bill better than Brughda Syndrome.

What's really intimidating about these symptoms is that in emergency situations they'll disappear before they can be properly assessed. Once I went to the ER from painful heart palpitations, but by the time I got checked in it disappeared. It seemed so insignificant that it was chalked up to anxiety.

I think it's kind of obvious that the nightmare part is completely irrelevant. The big problem is the patient being unwakable and unconcious. I imagine that something in their body or brain breaks a little, like some system fails that would be in part responsible for the patient being unwakable. Probably some messed up chemicals doing goofy stuff in the brain. And the nightmare could possibly be caused by the main issue, maybe the main issue even causes real and tangible stress, seizures, pains and etc. to the body and so your dream suddenly turns into a nightmare because your brain feels that something is up and the body might be in real pain too.

Brew just described my life. I've seen this IRL. Goodnight all!

Trauma survivors had this problem.

I was immediately thinking of BrS (Brugada syndrome) as the source of the deaths way before it was mentioned here. From the implied genetic contribution and the high incidence rate southeast Asia (including the story of men crossdressing as women to some degree before bed), consumption of large amounts of alcohol (a known potential trigger for BrS), having an incidence rate higher in biological men (thanks testosterone), of course the whole dying in your sleep thing, etc.

Another situation where you can't know unless it happens to you, and then when it happens to you you can't tell what happened because you died in your sleep, So how does anyone know anything about this? 😅

[@julijanj6958]

In Thailand it's called "Lai - Taai". Lai means assleep. Taai means death. It occurs mainly in men. Folk people believe it's caused by a lonely widow ghost haunting men in their dream, or sometimes, a black magic. To prevent the ghost from hauting, people believe men have to dress as a woman during sleep, some even wear a lipstick or a nailpolish, to disguise from the ghost, until the ghost leaving the village (after a certain time with no more deaths).

Haven't finished the video yet, but judging from the intro, if the victims are male, then this might be about ผีแม่หม้าย (Widowed ghost)

Scared to sleep and scared to eat before bed. Cool. Thanks for always unlocking new fears.

So it’s a nocturnal emission of your soul from your body.
