Hypnopompic residual immobility in REM sleep (mid-cycle)
In REM sleep, hypnopompic residual immobility, showing up mid-stretch, away from either edge in the mid-cycle window. Cortical band theta spans 3.96–7.42 Hz; GABA leads, atonia state is "preserved", and this row's density score is 106.6.

Dataset readout: Hypnopompic residual immobility in REM (mid-cycle). Cortical window 3.96–7.42 Hz (theta). Atonia=preserved. Markers drive the text below — not dream-symbol meanings.
- can't move on wake
- chest weight
- eye-only movement
- stable stage somatic quiet
Mechanism stack
- Cortically, this row runs theta at 3.96–7.42 Hz while hypnopompic residual immobility, showing up mid-stretch, away from either edge plays out in REM sleep.
- The lead transmitter is GABA (inhibitory tone rises across cortical and spinal targets), alongside acetylcholine, glycine — this row's density score is 106.6.
- Dataset row #53856206: atonia 90/100, arousal 41/100, coherence 61/100 — the brake is locked down tight, over a middling, mixed backdrop.
- On this mid-cycle row the markers stack as "can't move on wake" → "chest weight" → "eye-only movement" → "stable stage somatic quiet" — repeating steadily through an already-stable stretch.
- The BODY line on this page leans on "can't move on wake" for this mid-cycle/REM row — a mechanism read, not a symbol lookup.
For REM sleep in the mid-cycle window, "can't move on wake" is exactly the kind of detail the Lab weights over plot — mechanism before meaning.
Felt on waking
On waking, the marker named most often is "can't move on wake" with "chest weight" close behind. Because this row sits at mid-cycle in REM sleep, it rarely wakes you outright, so recall depends on catching it deliberately.
Related physiology
This row connects to Atonia lock — the GABA–glycine brake that holds skeletal muscle offline during REM.
How Lab Search uses this row
"can't move on wake" — tied here to GABA activity is treated by Lab Search as a body-side input for REM sleep, not as imagery to interpret — it changes the mechanism weighting, not the story.

How to read Hypnopompic residual immobility in REM sleep (mid-cycle)
This row is Hypnopompic residual immobility in REM (mid-cycle). Cortical window 3.96–7.42 Hz (theta). Atonia state: preserved. Density 106.6. Chart seed 53856206 is deterministic for this URL — the trace is a model of the row, not a clinical EEG.
Gauges on this page: atonia 90, arousal 41, coherence 61. Markers: can't move on wake, chest weight, eye-only movement, stable stage somatic quiet. Transmitters tagged: GABA, acetylcholine, glycine. Those fields are why two “similar” titles are not duplicates. If a marker did not happen to you, say so — do not wear the whole row.
What the body is doing — not what the image “means”
On waking, the marker named most often is "can't move on wake" with "chest weight" close behind. Because this row sits at mid-cycle in REM sleep, it rarely wakes you outright, so recall depends on catching it deliberately. For REM sleep in the mid-cycle window, "can't move on wake" is exactly the kind of detail the Lab weights over plot — mechanism before meaning.

How Lab Search should use this row
"can't move on wake" — tied here to GABA activity is treated by Lab Search as a body-side input for REM sleep, not as imagery to interpret — it changes the mechanism weighting, not the story. Then open Decode if you also have a plot. The plot is optional; the body line is not.
This utility will not treat Hypnopompic residual immobility as a spirit, a pregnancy test, or a death omen. It will treat it as a stage-bound somatic metric. If symptoms are nightly, worsening, or include dream enactment, that is clinical, not catalog.
