A professionally qualified doctor or medical professional should only be consulted for this. He can only consider it properly. It is difficult for me at this stage.
I agree with the answer above. However, sleep paralysis is a natural process. All of us, when we sleep, tend to release a neurotransmitter that inhibits muscular movement. The 'problem' arises when this sensation intrudes into waking periods. Really can't comment on Bruxism (teeth grinding).
Yes it is a sleep disorder and is often a component of narcolepsy. One of my children suffers from narcolepsy there is a great deal of information available Simply, type in sleep disorders or the specific sleep disorder you are seeking information about, Sleep paralysis is a natural occuring situation however from those that suffer they awake and their bodies are paralyzed. Very scary!
