Sleep paralysis...seen it on here before...

Just had an episode this morning...about the 3rd of 4th time I've experienced it in my life, but this was the worst one.
I "woke up" and saw a gold, shadowy figure coming toward me, and then was hit by what felt like a dull electric charge in my upper body. Lasted a short period without being able to talk, move or react, then I finally woke up. Pretty crazy, and almost exactly the hallucinations described by many who have it. Wonder what's up with the weird ghostly shape?

similar to what I saw, but mine was a goldish colour..

Don't worry; that's just your wife's true form.

If you pay taxes, that ghostly figure is Hillary coming to steal your soul.

THAT has happened to you three or four times?

It's been a long while since I've had it. Never seen any shadowy figure or anything trippy. I typically did the Kill Bill wiggle your big toe mind trick. Made me snap out of it. It usually happened when I was strung out from back to back all-nighters studying with minimal sleep.

This actually happened to me last week for the first time since I was a kid. I thought I was up and screaming but I wasn't. It's weird shite.

Wiggle your toes! This is the only way to snap out of it for me.

the sleep paralysis has...first time when I was in high school then at least one more time since before this morning...as I said, this was the first time I remember "seeing" something.

I have them every year or two and feel your pain. What seems to trigger them is being too hot while sleeping

Always cover your toes with the sheets. Its the devil pulling on your toes!

Yikes. I had a sleep paralysis episode over the weekend, but I've never seen anything like that. For me, it just feels like there's an electrical current zapping my brain/neck/chest, and I can't move. I've had them occasionally since high school. I don't know if I've ever opened my eyes during an occurrence.

I've had it twice. The first time was the most terrifying experience of my life. I read up on it and when it happened the next time, I just remained calm since I knew what was going on, and it was fine. Actually a pretty cool experience if you don't freak out.

im pretty sure it means your gay

I've never had sleep paralysis..Might be because I sleep on my stomach, I hear it is a trait more common amongst back sleepers
I have had exploding head syndrome which I hear is related to sleep paralysis

Agree. It's a super weird feeling, but it doesn't scare me anymore, so I'm able to...enjoy isn't the right sentiment. Let myself experience it without panicking, I guess.

It happens to me every now and then (couple times a year). Pretty wacky feeling.

Yeah I made a thread on it about a month ago
I've had it all throughout my life it seems... I'll go through periods of having it and then it will go away for a good while.
'Stuff you should know' did a podcast on it a few weeks ago. They also talked about the exploding head stuff, I have never had that and it seems weird as frick. Neither of the host have had sleep paralysis but they still do a good job describing it in my opinion.

I always wake up with a boner when the hag visits.
