I've had night terrors throughout my adult life. Night terrors are very common with children and less so with adults. Adults that do have them have typically had some type of trauma in their life. I haven't. Any explanation for them?

Most historians agree that Lincoln had them because his father touched his butthole.


But, hey.......now he's on your penny.

One time I had a dream that I fell off the ledge at a subway station. I could hear the sub in the distance and frantically tried to pull myself onto the ledge. I woke up standing on my bed hanging on the shelf above me. There was broken glass on my bed from thrashing my arms about wildly and breaking picture frames.

You're repressing a memory. Probably either a priest, step-dad, or woodsy owl touched your PeePee.

I don't man but good lookin out for you. My son who is 12 now use to get them when he was 3-7, they would freak me and the wife out to the point we couldn't go back to sleep. He'd sweat profusely and would blabber all kinds of shite. Dr. told us just to let them go unless he was hurting himself.

I had them as a kid often where it would take my parents a long time to get me oriented. I would be covered in sweat too. I stopped having them from age 10-20 but since 20 they happen pretty regularly.

i have dreams of falling, at least once a week. Sometimes i wake up, right as i'm about to hit the pavement.

Some are so realistic, that when i wake up, i'm freaked the f out.

then i beat off, and fall back to sleep.

It's an out of body experience. You are aware of your separated astral body. It exists outside third dimensional time and space. It is a body associated with higher dimensions. Your astral body is "falling" back into your third dimensional physical body.

I've had night terrors and sleep paralysis all of my adult life as well. Most evidence points to a serotonin imbalance in the brain. This could be precipitated by the meds you take, drugs or past drug abuse, alcohol or it could just be how you are wired.

Suppressed something from accident, rape, violence.

My day job is hypnotherapist.
Slept in a days inn too.

Low chance its previous lifetime.

When you are faced with something how do you cope?
Once you can do a loving heart surrendered practice days, you will be stronger in sleep.
Write down as much as you remember of nightmares.

And do not seek professional help.






(Thats a joke).

The night hag is a generic name for a fantastical creature from the folklore of various peoples which is used to explain the phenomenon of sleep paralysis. A common description is that a person feels a presence of a supernatural malevolent being which immobilizes the person as if sitting on his/her chest.




Knew it had hag in there.

Look up Kirlian photograpy. I'm talking quantum reality, not folklore. Also look up Princeton studies into consciousness.
