A frustrated Kendall tells her mom, "But it's not...no I'm done arguing with people because everyone says I'm fine, but I don't feel fine. And I promise you one day when I'm rushed to the hospital then you guys are gonna wake up."

Kris tells Kendall that she believes her, she just doesn't want her to live with this "anxious feeling" all the time.

Kendall gets very overwhelmed while going over her schedule with Kris and admits she's "scared" to travel that much because of her sleep paralysis.

 "I'm scared to fall asleep because it keeps happening to me," Kendall says. "It almost feels like my heart stops."

But Kris tells Kendall, "The nature of what you do for a living and your career is flying around the world. You have designers that have already booked you and are counting on you to show up."

When she hears this, Kendall tells her mom that she thinks her health is more important than her jobs.

"Kendall basically lives on an airplane, so the anxiety on an airplane and the sleep paralysis is a huge problem," Kris says. "Sometimes it's been so bad that she's been paralyzed from even getting on an airplane and I've had to get on a plane, fly from L.A. to London just to get her from London to New York. So it's becoming a real problem."
