Mini_Ninja wrote I have had sleep paralysis on two separate occasions that i can remember, both times i thought i was awake, when i went to get up i couldn't move. At the time i was in my teens and i didn't really know what was going on so i just closed my eyes and went back to sleep. Ive been reading up on astral projection a lot lately and id love to try that! Its worth a youtube search!

Happens pretty often to people 18-24 normally down to a mix of stress and screwy sleeping pattens I've had it 2 times in my life 1st time I had no idea wtf was wrong with me I was 100% awake but totally unable to move I was under a lot of stress both times.

Geck wrote I have experienced it once in my life and I was under heavy influence of alcohol and energy drinks at the time. I was drinking around 12AM and having this at about 5AM so it wasn't an immediately after I had fallen asleep. It was quite scary and I think there is a wide range of causes for sleep paralysis.

I had a weird one when I was 14 or 15. I was asleep for probably 2-3hours then wide awake and a dark figure at the end of my bed couldn't move or anything for about 5-10 solid mins. Had a panick attack and went to my brothers room for the night lol. Hope to never have another one.

Anhur wrote I have narcolepsy (not as bad as my as my sister) but i tend to get sleep paralysis when i was younger about 1-2 times a month (probably once every 3-4 months now) when i was younger it used to scare the hell out of me, you can feel yourself awake but you can't move, there's this ear piercing screech and shadowy figure that stares at you until you get function again.

As time goes on it makes your heart skip a beat but it kind of remind me of lucid dreaming. You can control what you see and how it makes you feel. I've had sleep paralysis moments where i'm just laying there looking at the wall but nothing happens.

Half of the time id say it happened due to the narcolepsy, but on other hand i used to get excited for what's happening the next day and overthink everything and stress myself out to the point i keep waking up and checking the time. Like Christmas time, i would wake up during the night and get nervous that i missed Santa and accidentally put myself in a sleep paralysis since my body is obviously tired but i'm forcing myself to wake up and turn to my clock
