Last night I had another episode of "sleep paralysis." I'm not sure what it is to be quite honest with you, but I do know that its scary as hell and I can't figure out what triggers "it."
Whenever the sleep paralysis happens, I can always tell when it's about to happen, its strange. Have you ever dozed off on the couch, but yet you were completely aware of your surroundings, hear every commercial or conversation that's going on around you? Well it's sort of like that. Except that this usually happens right before I'm settling in into bed, still aware of my surroundings, then feeling like someone is entering the room but instead of getting up to see who it is. I'm lying there stuck, I can't move. Once I become aware of what's going on, I could feel my heart race and the intensity of being paralyzed becomes more imminent, almost unbearable. When I reach that point, I remember to slow down my breathing, then I try to concentrate on moving one finger (sooo kill bill, but it works), because if I could accomplish that then the "paralysis" sensation starts to dissepate, like a drug wearing off - - I told you it's strange.
I don't know what this is, or what causes this and that bothers me. Do I have a sleeping disorder? maybe. I'd like to know what this is. I've read up on several forums about sleep paralys, and though the information is close its just no where near what I've experienced.
During one episode I remember feeling that presence in my room, then going into the paralysis phase, but this time the experience was different - I started hearing muffled voices. This scared the shit out of me to say the least! I'm fascinated by the subject and I'm eager to find someone who's shared my experiences...So if anyone is reading this and you have had a similiar experience please share them or enlighten me on what you think it might be...
