Lately, my mother has been telling about these dreams she has been having, these consist of her mother, grandmother and such. My father told me, sometimes it seems as if shes having a nightmare, her eyes are wide open, and looks as if her body is tense. My mom said that sometimes she can open her eyes... or see i guess since her eyes are already open... She says in both her dream and when she wakes up she can't move sometimes, or she can't wake up and is too scared during her dream... I wasnt sure if this was sleep paralysis or something else? Whatever it is, can someone give some advice so i can help her with these dreams?
