I was paralyzed for 2 and a half months and remained fully awake and aware the whole time during a Catatonic state, AMA
Post Body
The worst part besides the whole “paralyzed state” was I was constantly wet during the whole ordeal. I had no control over my bowels and urinary system so I kept soiling my self constantly.
My respect for nurses skyrocketed because of everything they did to take care of me.

This, for me, would have easily induced a state of terror that I suspect could push me over the edge into insanity.
I imagine you must have had some very, very dark moments yourself, not knowing when, or if this state might end.
I'm really glad that you came through this. However, how did you cope with it at the time?
