I mean like, detects your brainwaves and shakes you awake if it detects you are awake but unable to move.

Like I can still slightly move my fingers during sleep paralysis, is there a way to use my tiny bit of control to activate a button, which then triggers a device that shakes me awake? 😆

🤔

Idk I keep getting sleep paralysis every night, feels so weird.

    Try to take deep breaths. If it’s low blood oxygen as others say, that could help.

    Alternative if your brain/body won’t allow it: Try holding your breath. You might have control over that. The aim is to hold long enough trigger a gasp reflex which will, hopefully, shake you awake.

    The hard part is finding the presence of mind to remember things to try when you’re in an altered state of consciousness.

      Remember that guide to not take medical advice from Internet strangers? This is one of those examples.

      Seriously, Talk to your doctor.
