re: I experienced sleep paralysis for the first time last night

Had the same thing happen twice. The second time I was ready and started praying. It went away pretty quickly and never returned.

Yall motherfrickers need Jesus.

The last time i thought i had SP was last year staying at a haunted hotel in California. I didnt know it was considered haunted and now I'm convinced it was a ghost/apparition in our room. I was legit too scared to move. As it moved i felt hot and cold then saw it. It had the shape of a woman

Just curious. To all of you this happened to, are you Christian?

How many hits of LSD do you guys take before bed time?

Did you try to talk? That's some trippy shite when you try to say something, realize you can't talk then start screaming to try to vocalize something but at the most a muffled murmur comes out

It’s happened to me a few times. Never thought of it as scary. Just like I’m experiencing some reaalllly good sleep, and my body is too asleep to react. Kind of a neat feeling imo


ETA: as another poster said, trying to speak/talk but nothing is happening is a really weird feeling too

But I vividly remember what happened.

I've had it happen a couple of times. Most vivid one was 15 or so years ago. I woke up and saw a shadowy figure in the doorway walking towards me. I couldn't move or talk. Felt like something was pushing on my chest.

Sounds similar to what I experienced once. I slept in my brother in laws old bedroom at my in-laws house and had a horrible paralysis experience. I won't ever sleep in that room again because of it.

I felt and saw a shadowy figure sitting on my torso and then get up and walk away to the bedroom door. I tried screaming but couldn't get anything out. Couldn't move either. It felt like an eternity.

Turns out it was probably their damn cat, but my mind couldn't analyze that and freaked me the frick out. I never actually "woke" up. Just calmed myself down and went back to sleep.
