Maybe people are afraid of losing control hypnophobia on his body. Maybe they think if they sleep vulnerable.
What do you think? Answer below!
It could be from a previous episode of sleep apnea (when you suddenly stop breathing while you’re asleep) and the person feels that they will never wake up and die in their sleep.
Or it could just be that the person is afraid of what could happen while they sleep. By that I mean something could happen and they would never know (such as a death of a friend or loved one) because they were unconscious. Perhaps the fact that they are unconscious could flat out frighten a person.
