Can someone help me identify this sleeping disorder?

Sometimes in the morning, when I over sleep, It gets hard to breathe and I can barely move my body. I can barely open my eyes and it like I'm half asleep.

Is this sleep paralysis?

This is a phenomenon occurs when your body suddenly wakes up from REM sleep.

During the REM (Rapid Eye Movement) cycle, the body is paralyzed (it's a defense mechanism that prevents you from acting out and hurting yourself during your dreams). When you suddenly wake up from REM sleep, the paralysis will persist from a few seconds to a few minutes, which can lead to panic.

Don't freak out -- this isn't dangerous. Just relax and wait for your brain to realize you're awake.

See your Doctor
