10 Conditions That Can Cause Sleep Paralysis
Sleep Paralysis Associated Condition #8: Jet Lag
Jet lag occurs when there is time zone changes as people travel across time zones. This disrupts their sleep and is seen as a circadian rhythm disorder. Some of the associated symptoms include irritability, headaches, insomnia, drowsiness, tiredness, lethargy, disorientation, and sleep paralysis.
The more time zones a person crosses in a short duration, the more severe the symptoms they experience. Symptoms also tend to be more severe in older individuals as it takes longer for their body clock to get back into sync.
