Is it normal to be afraid of sleeping?

Is it OK to be afraid of sleeping? Like I just fear what would happen when I am asleep, I try to stay up as long as I can and to me, going to sleep is like dying for a short period. Also 8 hours or so of being completely still does not stand with me

    Wow. That's crazy and not normal at all. So this post is three months old and wondering if you solved it? How about an update? It sounds awful and like it required/requires a trip to the doctor.

    I hate sleeping myself period.. I have the most fearful, terrifying, horrifying, panic-stricken, horror-struck, frantic, beside oneself nightmares every time I just doze off even.. Take the thing that really frightened you the worst and multiply that by 100 and that what I deal with. Every time I try sleeping or napping I have tried every sleeping pill every kind of nut pills, downers half gallons of whiskey till I just fell out.. Only thing I found that works no sleep..... so feel your pain

    That's...a bit odd. I mean, sometimes I'll have long periods of time that I dont sleep or dont feel tired but never was afraid to sleep. Hope it sorts out for you as fear is never fun

    No you have a lot of nightmares, or do you experience night terrors? Do you oftentimes experience sleep paralysis?
