My family are big investigators of paranormal phenomena, and waking paralasys is one of those things...it isnt as simple as "your body hasnt turned your muscles back on"...its actually quite interesting!

**almostgone** · 08-06-2005, 05:03 PM

..Yes..and it sucks......

**_Tiger_** · 08-06-2005, 05:15 PM

Do you ever wake up paralysed and feel like theres someone in the room with you? its called a hypnagogic hallucination.

**SwoleCat** · 08-06-2005, 05:38 PM

Lmao...you know what, thats crazy because its known that the use of drugs often brings about certain types of strange phenomena like that. When I was heavily into drugs, my alarm would go off in the middle of the night, louder than it was set, and it would be this man SCREAMING, every time....crazy stuff

Is it when you fall asleep with yer head kinked and its like yer whole body fell asleep? KInda like when yer arm is up and falls asleep, just yer whole body gets numb like that.

One time my brother in law came home up stairs and set the alarm off in the middle of the night and my head shot up but my body wouldnt move, my girl still laughs about it, she got a kick out of it. I have problems being woke up quicly out of my sleep, and when I used to party I would sleep walk and when I would relize I was asleep I would pass out and collapse, fuc'd my shit up a few times, caught a talble once OUCH!!!

no, its somewhat unexplained, there are theories about why it happens
some say its a slight form of nacolepsy
some say your hormones are still acting as if you were sleeping (because if they didnt sedate you, you would be tossing and throwing yourself all over the place)

some say your astral projecting and you are not aware that your spirit has left the body...etc etc.

You and my girl are on the same page, almost gave myself whip lash, she laughed for 15 min straight, like an hour later when we were sleeping again I would hear her giggle in her sleep , bitch!!!

actually it is basically that simple. yes in some cases there is alot more behind it but in my case there isnt your body turns off your voluntary muscle function when you sleep so you dont act out your dreams and if your not tired enought to fall into a deep sleep you can wake up while you muslce function is still in sleep mode.it happens mostly when you go to sleep while your body is still very active like right after you work out, or when you take irregular naps in the middle of the day. it usually happens in your early teens so if you havnt experienced it by know chances are that you wont. some people get the feeling like someone is in the room with them like a demonic ora, other people get the feeling that there is someone sitting on their chest this goes way back to when people believed that there was an old demon hag who would come and sit on your chest in the middle of the night and suck the life out of you. however you cut it, it sucks ive had all three most commonly just not being able to move but being wide awake. you feel very weak and defenceless like a little biotch. some times its not that bad other times it seems like it lasts for hours.

just that damn mental picture is hilarious! your like sprawled out under the covers, and the alarm goes off and your head shoots up, and your heads just turning this way and that, looking all confused and worried and shiet..lmao!

Actually the sleep paralysis is a trick of the brain. You are asleep, but in some part of the brain the cerebral activities of consciousness is 100%. And your imagination takes over, with something happening like the door opens, or you feel someone on you, you try to scream or move but you realize (brain) that you cannot move. This is simple, your body is asleep but not some parts of your brain, that are going full speed.

This is also known as the night witch, sleeping witch, demon's night etc....

when this happen, usually dont try to fight or move it just get worst, only think waking up waking up!

**Tazwell** · 08-07-2005, 02:25 AM

man, i swear it used to happen to me every time i took a nap in the middle of the day.. i would wake up but would be locked, but i was wide awake.. and yea, i heard voices of children, usually a boy and a girl.. it didn't sound like it was from my head.. i could hear them as they moved around me, from left of the room, to right, and then evetually right behind me.. sometimes it would go on for five minutes, i would get convinced that there had to be someone in the room cuz i was listening to freakin' conversations and shxt, but i would wake up and nothing would be there.

but i know for a fact that it isn't paranormal.. sometimes i would hear people i recognized like my father or bro.. i would wake up and ask where my bro was.. my mom would be like; he's not home from practice yet.. so yea, just my mind playing tricks on me, probably from the crazy stress i used to get from mid-terms, projects, and papers back when i was in college..

YES!! I never could put it into words though. but it used to happen to me and i hated it! My dad used to wake up early like at 4am, and i would have him wake me up and i wouldnt go back to sleep because of it. this was over 10 years ago, but still, i hope it never happens again.

**TheNatural3456** · 08-07-2005, 08:16 AM

lol thats so funny this post is up....i had that this morning and i get it alot....

**Kärnfysikern** · 08-07-2005, 09:52 AM

See, thats the thing..

If the drugs "brought it out", then blame the drugs

My aunt claims she saw aliens before too... She was doing mushrooms, dumb bitch.. Drug addicts see alot of stuff that isnt there...

I'm talking about Heroin..not "SHROOMZZZZZZ" BRO..

I didnt have any other "Weird stuff" I experienced other than that. Do you think I woulda thought of these things before I posted them online? Doing things that bring your mind into a bad place mentally can definitely make bad things happen to the places you do them in, or where you live. These are things I experienced in a sober state of sleep, not high. Plus Heroin is a sedative/depressant, not hallucinogen. Thanks for the comment though

Lol Tazwell that sounds pretty damn paranormal if I say so myself! thats way interesting

**Animal Cracker** · 08-12-2005, 09:06 AM

That crap happens about once a month for me...everytime it freaks me out. When I was a kid, my mother told me that it was Satan coming to get my ass because I was a bad boy...only I keep waking up before he can haul my butt off to hell!

**Bigen12** · 08-12-2005, 09:10 AM

It's happened to my brother several times, he'll wake up and go to get out of the bed, and his legs won't work and he falls to the ground.

We called an ambulance the first couple of times, scared the shit out of him.

They say it is also affected by stress.
