10 Sleep Paralysis Symptoms
Recurring Episodes
Some individuals may have multiple episodes of sleep paralysis over time. In many cases, these isolated and recurring forms of sleep paralysis combine to create a condition called Recurrent Isolated Sleep Paralysis, or RISP. This involves ongoing episodes of non-narcolepsy related sleep paralysis.
People with narcolepsy or mental disorders, such as bipolar disorder and post-traumatic stress disorder, may experience sleep paralysis more frequently than those without these types of disorders.
