    Did you by any chance wake up & found you were not able to move whilst experiencing auditory hallucinations (hearing things) ? If so - it's called sleep paralysis.

    Your brain disconnects from your body when you enter a deep sleep - that's why you don't kick the shit out of your wife when you dream you are running. Sometimes, people can wake up whilst still disconnected, often being able to open the eyes. Often feeling a presence in the room/another room. It is also quite normal to feel someone sitting on your chest & holding your arms down.

    I once woke up, found I couldn't move but could hear someone in the other room. I fought & fought the paralysis until I got out of the bed to the bedroom door. When I got to the door, I looked back at the bed & I was still ****ing in it ! At that point I woke for real and almost by reflex I was at the door for real and through it to find no-one there.

    This is VERY SCARY - I sympathise with you.

    Drugs can bring this on - in my case xanax brings it on but I am prone anyway. It happens a few times a year, especially in times of stress.

    I think you did the right thing to bin the stuff. You may well just be prone to it though.

    yes just what you described, felt like there was an intruder in the room and my heart would start beating off the clock but i was like helpless, by the morning it felt like a load of really bad nightmares. Horrible.

    **** man, I thought I was dying when that shit happened to me! It only happened once though, thank god. It was the summer of 2005, and I woke up to a POUNDING headache, pain throughout my body, and the inability to move an inch. I started praying, and accepted my death. Then I thought, well this is taking a while..hmmm..maybe I'm not dying. So I slowly started trying to move toes and fingers, and eventually I got out of it. Freaked the shit out of me. Never happened again though, thankfully.

    Oh, I wasn't on anything at that point at all.
