KGSHMM365, as gruesome as any of my nightmares have been, I've found that reality is much worse in comparison.

The answer here is incorrect. Clinophobia is the fear of going to bed, not fear of sleep.

Most nights, I will sleep for about an hour or two, then wake up suddenly and unable to fall back to sleep. Im not frightened from a nightmare or anything like that. In fact, I cant recall the last time I even HAD a dream. I just chalk it up to the MS.

Syr Hal, Yes! You are absolutely correct! The other 2 do mean fear of falling asleep, but their answer of 'all 3 are correct', is wrong 💯

used to be kind of scared or weary of sleeping because of 'Sleep Paralysis', the experience was terrifying.
