Ok this happened to me alot and some times when I wake up or think i am awake I can not move I am so paraylized. I train myself to move a little but I can't and feels like somethingf is holding me down and my eyes are closing again to go back to sleep but when they are closing I can't breath but force myself to keep my eyes open and then breath and finally I twich my finger to keep life and start wiggling untill I could move again. I HATE that feeling...well in the stupid catholic schools in my young young daysthey said oh it's just the devil trying to steal your soul eek and yess this made me feel so much better and get good sleep at night

Anyone know what i am talking about ?

luckily i have never had this because one of my biggest fears is waking up and not being able to move.

I am serious though

It's called sleep paralysis.

It happens when your mind is awake and your body is asleep, it's horrible. I've had it a lot but my brother suffers from it quite a bit.

That is the worst feeling i ever felt and felt like I was dieing or something..I almost cried. Well atleast it's not the devil .

I have suffered paralised limbs after waking up at times, but nothing like not being able to move at all.
Silly little catholics, writing every uncomfortable event down as an act of satan instead of giving it a second thought. Well, shit like that only works in their favor as they somehow wish to restrain their followers with fear as much as possible.

Go to a catholic school for halloween and you will be so scared it is not even funny.

I've had that before. Its pretty freaky because whenever I tried to open my eyes, I ended up either opening them in the dream or closing them again. Chills all down my spine. Waves of fear. Not like regular fear. But the feeling, just by itself, no tracible source. No images. No nightmares. Its terrible. Worse than anything my mind could conjure.

Yeah, you might need one of those phone headsets. Hell, if I had to sleep like that, I'd just assume stay stuck to the bed forever.

it always does

Not the most evil of his acts is it? Holding someone down.

He must be getting mellow.

It happend to me two or three times in my whole life. The first time was pretty scary because I didn't know what the hell was happening. Then I looked sleep paralysis on the internet and the next one or two times were a breeze. It didn't bother me at all. I just kept trying to move until I could move.

It hasn't happened to me in at least 7 years or so though.

Oh, and I went Catholic school for most of my school life, they never told us anything stupid like the Devil was holding us down lol. Then again, I guess you could say it was a pretty liberal Catholic school. They taught us about all religions :P.

You're not being held down by the devil. Your mind is simply waking up before your body; the paralysis induced by REM sleep is causing this. Scary, yes, even downright terrifying (I've never had the experience) but it isn't anything to worry about. (I think, anyhow...I don't believe there are any ill effects to this happening aside from being afraid, which I suspect will dull in time now that you've an idea of what you are suffering.)

It's never happened to me.. thankfully... I think

You think thats scary, imagine having nightmares of two fat ladies chasing you down a street.

Wow, funky....i've had dat before its F**king scary

id bite the devil's hand. then suck his blood muahahahahahahaahahahhahahaha whose the BIATCH now lucifer!

I've had it before once....
Almost couldn't ****in' breathe.
Can't move 'n all that.....
Scary shit, dude!

It's happened to me before, I didn't know exactly what it was until I read another thread on KMC about sleep paralysis. I had simply assumed that I'd experienced a waking dream of some sort, and that I hadn't quite woken up entirely. It's a nasty thing to go through but, for me at least, it happened quickly. I remember panicking because I couldn't move but I wasn't terrified, I think I was less scared because I wasn't completely conscious.

I've read and from what I experienced about it once myself....It is one of the most terrifying things you can go through....For me I was terrified...and am never in a terrified state....never......It's seems you sense some evil presence for many.....scary....

Far as I'm concerned it was entirely physical... no spiritual or supernatural elements to it at all. I knew I'd just woken up, thought I could perhaps still be dreaming and must have drifted off again. Not once did I conjure up images of the devil or his minions having their wicked way with me

I've read that many people that feel they've been abducted by aliens were really in sleep paralysis condition.....Some people feel like something is approaching them, some feel something is on their bed or sitting on there chest, that's why they can't breath...some see things....

Much has been written about it....

Oh, I agree there... the weird things people experience are easily explained if it's pointed out that they could simply have been in a subconscious state. Kinda explains why they always end up waking up where they started.

You know, I resent being referred to as the devil.












I much prefir "your Satanic Majesty." Have a little sympathy. Thank-you... and good night...

i resent that too

When the brain goes into REM sleep (deep, dreaming sleep), the brain paralyzes the muscles so we don't act-out our dreams. Sometimes though circuits get crossed, so to speak: the body wakes up, but the mind is still dreaming (somnambulism - "sleep walking"; or the opposite: the body is still asleep but the mind wakes up (in part) - sleep paralysis. Because the mind is only partly awake, there is also hypnogogic imagery, ie, dreaming imposed on awareness of the outside world.

Next time it happens, just try to calm your thoughts, try to be aware that part of you is still asleep. Just let the experience run its course. As long as you are healthy, there's nothing to fear.

I think ive had the same thing, ive woke up and my WHOLE top body except my head i couldnt move for about 3mins, it was scarey

What you think of other people is how you feel about yourself. If you keep this up, you will get banned.

I don't think he even needs to keep it up. A sample of some of his last few posts (in various forums):

NO...it's terrible...Only happened to me once....You can't move....only your eyes can.....You can't speak.....then you panic....that's when you need to calm down and think un-panicing and happier thoughts....

so is ur non philosophical MAMMA biatch!

I've also heard this......There are negatives and positives, if you have fear you will attract the negative....That's why you must try to relax and dwell on the positives....then you attract that experience...and yes for OBE..I've heard, that you do need some protection or create some sort of protection...

yeah i get it to all the time infact, i enjoy it because it is a challenge to try and beat the paralisis .

Also on the same note what the original poster was talking about was a plauge that was going around in the 90's were people were walking up to " The black lady" she would sit on your chest and block the air flow to your mouth also there is some times a threatning figures in the room like a guy with a machete


Fun huh?!?

Odd though that is usually accompanied by "Terror"...

No, I' ve never experienced sleep paralysis.

yeah an unexplainible irashinal threatining presence

This actually happened to me last night. I will admit, it was possibly less difficult to deal with because of this thread. I wasn't scared, but I did get tired of waiting for it to go away. That's why I just went back to sleep when I couldn't move.

Good idea.....just going back to sleep.....

I feel that if I go back to sleep I would die or something. worse feeling ever.

wow, i was gonna make a thread about this...........................but u beat me 2 it........this has happened between 20-30 times in my life. It's usually when I sleep on the couch and I'm facing the inside of the couch. I can open my eyes and slightly move my fingers, but thats it. I hate it! I tryto get peoples attention by moving my fingers, but to no avail.

Sleep paralysis. Some crazy stuff. I remember one time, like last year, i was semiconscious while experiencing sleep paralysis.

I was fully awake mentally but it seemed it had 2% of body energy when moving my body physically. I mean , I wasn't tired or anything and I wasn't having a nightmare/dream. I was as awake as I am right now. I was fully conscious with full knowledge of what was going on. I realized that i was "stuck". That's what i call it.

I was just in an extremely sluggish state, barely moving, trying to will myself up. Then i woke up with a snap, and said "f***", then i sat on my bed for a moment to try to gather myself with my breathing a tad paced, then i went downstairs for breakfast as if nothing happened.

It was a crappy experience. kinda horrifying. there was a time that i wanted to see what would happen if i willfully stayed paralyzed but i found it too crazy so i struggled and willed myself up. It kinda feels like death is close by when that happens. Or maybe it's just me.
