Sleep Paralysis and Combat Fatigue

CAREL VAN DER HEIDE M.C.1 and JACK WEINBERG M.C.1

1 AAF Convalescent Hospital Don Ce-Sar, St. Petersburg, Florida.

Three cases of sleep paralysis in returned Air Force personnel suffering from combat fatigue, have been reported. The condition occurred singly, not in association with cataplexy, narcolepsy or somnambulism. Superficial analysis led to the impression that sleep paralysis is, in all probability, related to a state of confusion as to emotion and intention, with resulting indecisiveness. This symbolic interpretation of the symptom needs verification by more detailed individual analytic studies.
