Sleep paralysis : See a sleep specialist. Sounds like sleep paralysis with an admixture of waking jolts. Please get a full sleep evaluation. Best wishes.

Hello, My name is Jesse. I was wondering if you had any ideas on how to get better sleep at night? I try to go to bed at the same time every night and have the same nightly routine. I tend to wake up 5-6 times regularly throughout the night. Sometimes it is very hard to shut the brain off. Any ideas or tips and how to help with this? Thanks in advance. Sleep?
