Has anyone had the amount of sleep paralysis decrease or had sleep paralysis go into remission as a result of taking stimulants? I've seemingly had changes in sleep paralysis associated with changes in medication, but I can't find this phenomenon documented anywhere.

I know that Xyrem is supposed to help.

When I first started on stimulants I found that by being more awake during the day I was able to rest better at night. When I am more rested at night I tended to have less SP. So mine decreased a bit. I have always gone through spurts tho... have a few months where it happens all the time and then a month or two with it only happening 1 or 2 times. Stress and such factor it to it as well.

Now that I've been on Xyrem for 2 months its only happened once! (fell asleep on my back with no white noise! BAD IDEA!)
