Sleep Paralysis

A state of sleep between REM and being conscious. It feels similar to epileptic seizures (because I have had epileptic seizures AND sleep paralysis). Some people hallucinate, seeing monsters who are called "Sleep paralysis demons" and often depicted at the foot of your bed or sitting on your chest. Please note that not EVERYONE witnesses 'demons.' During Sleep Paralysis, you are fully conscious and can think clearly, but find EXTREME DIFFICULTY in breathing (even though your real body is still breathing) and you are paralyzed (you can't move any muscles). Sometimes, you may see yourself from a 3rd person's POV, and different individuals may experience the sensations of falling, being dragged off of the bed, or a heavy weight on their chest. During this time, your body is tensed up and your eyes are wide open, from a viewer witnessing the event. Normally, when a person wakes up after having sleep paralysis, it is a very memorable incident, unlike a dream. Treat sleep paralysis as a scary lucid dream. Sleep paralysis can occur as one is falling asleep OR as one is waking up. If a witness sees your body shaking violently during sleep paralysis, you may have had an epileptic seizure. Other than that, sleep paralysis is relatively harmless but can be scary for even someone who has had it multiple times. Personally, I think it's a load of BS when people say that laying on your back makes it more likely to have sleep paralysis.

Sleep bound

Physically unable to get out of bed because you're too tired to function. Not being able to get out of bed because you can't stay awake.

Why weren't you at school today?
I was sleep bound at home.
Damn, I know how you feel.

Sleep hungover

When you are up so late or get so little sleep that you have the same symptoms as if you had been out at a bar/party pounding down the drinks... headache, stomachache, hungry, everything is loud, etc.

Man, I was at that party last night and didn't have a drink ... but was out so late I'm sleep hungover!

Sleep Revelation

That one, bittersweet moment of intense fatigue due to an unhealthy lack of sleep, where you suddenly know EVERYTHING. You literally become the harbinger of infinite knowledge for a few moments before crashing out into a deep sleep, only to forget everything upon waking up.

*Person 1's bloodshot, baggy eyes widen in absolute awe.*
Person 2: Uh...
Person 1: Shut up! I've finally come to a realization, all the questions people have had that couldn't be answered, I know EVERYTHING, man, YOU MIGHT AS WELL SEND FOR THE POLICE!!!
Person 2: Wha--...
Person 1: SHUT UP!!! What comes after death? What's out there in space or the ocean? What happens when we use our brains to their full potential? What's the meaning of life? WELL I'LL TELL YOU! I'LL TELL YOU EVERYTHIN--...
*Person 1 crashes into his pillow, experiencing the total nirvana that is the sleep revelation.*
