Ever having sleep paralysis. OMG.

Woke up from a surprisingly realistic dream about how Earth was going to implode from HIV, and heard this crazy high pitch white noise that wouldn't go away. I tried moving, but obviously couldn't. I swear to God I saw kobolds (from WoW ) walking in and out of my room talking about slaughtering me. And the more I tried to move, the louder the white noise got.

Brb cleaning my underwear.

Chill dude, it`s completely normal, when your body needs to recover it goes to a mode where all the body functions are minimum. The dreams are a totally different story tho. And i can tell you its the projection of your mind, playing tricks on you. The goal is to control and be aware in your dream, this is what eastern masters do as a first step in meditation practice. It`s completely normal for everyone to do it, but people lack consciousness and trained bodies so they do it like this, unconscious and unaware of what`s really going on. Just don`t be freaked out. Relax and enjoy, ask questions in those situations and you`ll be amazed. Good luck.
it is all about overall evolution

Give me 50 bucks and a club and I'll see what I can do. I have to warn you though, chances are that paralysis will be permanent after the "treatment"

I had the same thing this morning, weird ass dream, I'm at the beach, 2m wall of water comes crashing on me, leaves me lying on the sand underwater while watching the wave crashing over me, not being able to breathe or move. Not breathing scary shit but after was a freaking kickass experience imo.

I've experienced sleep paralysis and a lucid dream all in 1 night

The most interesting thing about the experience was how I realized I was dreaming. Essentially, the dream was taking place at school but something in my mind told me "it's summer time, there is no school, you're dreaming" and I instantly became a God, like I was Neo finally understanding the Matrix

I started to do all kinds of crazy things and was having an amazing time. I tried flying and eventually hit a wall. Instead of crashing through the wall and bursting out the other side, the world started to blur like if you used the no clip code for Doom 2 (idclip) and started walking off the map. After a few seconds of seeing these weird blurs I realized I was losing control of my dream and I woke up. I found myself laying it my bed, looking at my ceiling but paralyzed. I started to panic and it got worse as I felt my "soul" floating up towards the ceiling. After rising up a few feet, gravity brought me crashing back to my bed.

Lucid dreams are so baller , I remember I was reading about them and I would have frequent lucid dreams, they've stopped though T_T, although my favourite was walking around a supermarket and eating everything fuck it was awesome. I could taste and smell chocolate for that dream.

wiki: The Hag

btw, I've had one of these before. Never again. I was about 13-14 and I was in my room just laying in bed in the dark with a crack of light coming in from the door being slightly open.
I wasn't really tired and it wasn't really bed time but I just layed down to relax for a minute. My sister and her friends were in the other room talking and I could hear the tv in the other room. Nothing intelligble but it was background noise.

I guess I eventually dosed off just barely, and all of the sudden this poster on my wall had the tape come loose and it flung down and started swinging back and forth. It instantly woke me up, but I COULD NOT move. I was completely tripping out, I thought I had a evil ghost or some aliens fucking with me. I didn't see anything and couldn't move so I closed my eyes hard and tried to will myself awake. after about 2-3 minutes the adrenaline dropped down and I started to yelp and my sister came in and was all concerned.

I think there is a specific brainwave pattern and timing for this kind of thing to occur. Its really fucking scary, probably the scariest thing ever to happen to me.
..and then I would, ya know, check em'. (Aka SpoR)

I've done that before, I crashed into a bakery and woke up T_T, haven't had a lucid dream for ages.

I remember after I watched the ring for the first time, I couldn't sleep for like 2 weeks after because I kept imaginging the dark-haired little girl creeping up to my bed and just standing there. At least twice I woke up and couldn't move for a couple seconds because I was so scared, and then another time I sat up really fast and ejected myself off the bed and straight into my closet.

Yeah I hate when this happens, sometimes you just wanna quit and lie there but it sucks so you keep trying. I wanna get out really bad of the paralysis but after I do, I go back into it and I'm like ohh shoot and it takes me like 5 times after getting it (on the same night) to move around and try something else.

oh and also if you experience sleep paralysis, a good way to get out of it is to concentrate on a single part of your body, like your thumb for example. try your hardest to move that single body part and you'll recover sooner than if you try and stand up or something.

가위눌으는거 sp. mistake

I got it like 3-4 times but for me it sortof goes away fast. My sister got it than woke up fell asleep and than got it again... Some of the stories my friends told about when they got 가위눌으는거 is really creepy as hell. Like hes in school taking a nap on the desk with his face on his arms and than he feels something grab his feet and he cant move. And in the glimpse of his eyes he sees something come up from the desks and than his friend wakes him up. Shivers im scared now;;

I've had horrific experiences, I wrote a blog about it too. Sometimes it involves dead babies trying to kill me, or burning hellhounds with red eyes, and demon spirits, or swirling colors, loud noises, and vibrating feelings. Of course I can never move or wake up.

Lately however, I've been able to wake up faster, and sometimes the experiences are even cool, rather than horrifying. But it definitely can be terrible, I just had to convince myself that I will eventually wake up, and that nothing that happens in these paralysis bouts can hurt me. If you keep that in mind, and even think about it when it actually happens to you, it can lessen the disturbance.

I've experienced a number of these over the years also. Mine were similar to Dev's in that it often felt as though there was someone in my house, and I would try with all my will to get up and couldn't. The first few times it happened I basically felt this overbearing sense of dread and helplessness. However the more recent episodes haven't been concerning at all; I seem to recall the previous experiences at that point and know that my body just needs time to awaken.

I wouldn't exactly recommend the experience to anybody because, at least the first few times, it can be down-right fucking scary, and even subsequent episodes aren't exactly 'pleasant'.

Out of curiousity, to those who've posted as having experienced these episodes, did you experience similar or other related sleeping issues as children? My mum has told me that as a youngster I experienced a number of night terrors that freaked the shit out of her. I wonder if I had some sort of sleep issues as a kid?

The same thing has happened to me once Brett, it was messed up. I was laying in bed and I must have passed out, but I heard some one open my door and slowly walk towards me, then grab me. I couldn't move at all during it, then I just like jumped out of bed. It scared the shit out of me. This was only about 2 years ago. I figured it was my girlfriend coming to bed.
