What is it called when you are awake but asleep at the same time?!


Question: What is it called when you are awake but asleep at the same time.?
i started this new medicine to help me sleep better at night, Thorazine. well my first time taking it was last night, and it defiantly did not help me sleep. i thought i was awake, i could hear EVERYTHING, and think everything, but my body was asleep; i was asleep by every definition of sleep ive ever read. so its like it puts me in "limbo" and i wonder how and why this isHealth Question & Answer

It's called Sleep Paralysis. It is NOT harmful, but it can be scary. Some people also experience dream-like hallucinations during this 'in and out' of it state.

It can be brought on by the use of certain drugs, it also happens to some people without anything seemingly 'causing' it. Talk with your doctor. It is possible that a change in the medication will help. also, stress and lacking sleep can cause this.
