re: I had my first experience with sleep paralysis

I experienced it once and it was fricking awful.
I was sleeping on my couch under my weighted gravity blanket that I haven't used since.
I woke up and couldn't move a muscle, absolutely terrified I tried to scream out for my girlfriend but as hard as I tried to scream nothing came out.
I basically had to sit through a full on panic attack while paralyzed and mute.
I felt like it was hours, but I really have no idea.

I have it all the time. the scariest ones arent the ones where she is on top of you.... its the ones where you hear her, them walking around your house, going into your kids rooms.....and you can do nothing about it..... those are the ones you dread.
I had one sit on my face one time.

Sounds like "sleep paralysis" aka night terrors. But who knows.
Experienced this once in early 2000's when living near the Mississippi River in BR, flood plain land. A man in a long coat walked through the door to the foot of the bed (dressed in clothing from long ago.) I said, with much force, to GTFO and leave my house, the spectre left and never returned. A couple of months earlier, my young daughter (less than 10) had woken me in the night to say that a man was in the hallway adjacent to her bedroom. Same physical description. I walked the house inside and outside, searched the attic too. Nothing found.
We shared similar experiences in that house - sold it a couple of years later and moved to a house with good vibes. Was it sleep paralysis, night terrors, or something from dimensions which we do not normally perceive? Idk. Haven't had the experience since.

I’ve had it a few times and every time I was sleeping on my stomach. Head in pillow gasping for air that I couldn’t get. Felt like I was being suffocated.
Each time I finally wake up and lift my self up with the biggest gasp for air.
First time my wife(no pics) seen me experience it, she freaked out.

I fricking hate the hag and I get it fairly often.

Last night I had a dream that I saw this post some time ago on Tigerdroppings.

I fell asleep on my couch Sunday evening and woke abruptly when it felt like my couch moved. Went and got in bed, but took me awhile to get back to sleep. Wife said I imagined it, but I'm damn sure it actually moved, or I fell somehow. I know I woke up on the couch, and that movement woke me up.

I had my first experience with it as a 11 or 12 year old kid. It was truly terrifying at that age. I never told anyone about me episodes until I was in grad school....

I've experienced the hag a few times during paralysis but I've also had some far out out of body feeling experiences. Do you ever feel the sensation that your head is vibrating during sleep paralysis? That how these out of body experiences/dreams always start with me.

I think our unconscious dream state has so many secrets we haven’t even begin to unlock. We are barely scraping the surface.
I think dream state will be the key to traversing planes of existence.

And his dad's action to eliminate said bogey man, remans a moment of sunlight triumph that has carried forward to this day.
Don't know if he wants us to name names in this thread, but here's to his dad and that immortal strike of justice at Ryan airport. One less nightmare because of him.

Rogan says the brain releases chemicals similar to dmt while were dreaming which can cause hallucinations. Could be were half-way tripping during these semi-awake/sleep paralysis states and that’s why we “see/experience” these things. Who knows though, he smokes a lot of weed.

Or…hear me out…what if the machine elves are real?
Think about it…
There are other worlds than these. This is but a single plane of existence.
This is the visible spectrum
This is the audible spectrum
What we can normally perceive is only a fraction of what exists.
There are things beyond the beyond. Existences outside of our ken.
I think resonance, music, vibrations are all keys to unlocking the yet undiscovered mysteries
ETA: of course, that just might lead us to finding out that vibrations are just oscillations between 2 points which can essentially be broken down to 1s and 0s, making it plausible that we really are, and everything is, just bits of code in some massive simulation.

This is what people during the 1980s and 90s claimed were alien abductions with subsequent embellishments.

I slowly became lucid in the middle of the night and realized my queen bed with solid wood frame and headboard were being shaken. In my semi-lucid state I assumed it was like constructive interference from the pattern of my heartbeat that had welled up strong enough to move such a heavy bed, but then I realized that was impossible. I still have no explanation.

I would have an iv of adderal and caffeine to prevent that shite from ever happening again. Nope

Aren't we talking about a Kooshma?
