Anyone ever woke up in the middle of the night, and your body don't wake up with you? kinda like being paralised, and the room has a very strange atmosphere, the kinda atmosphere you dont want be in paralised with ya eyes shut in? am i smoking too much weed or too little, anyone?
 
yeah it happened to me once, it was pretty scary. I woke up and could open my eyes but was paralyzed otherwise and tried to yell but my vocal cords were paralyzed too. It's a phenomena that's documented, I think it's called temporary paralysis. I know it's wierd but I kinda felt like I was getting abducted! It took a few minutes to regain movement, it really freaked me out.
 
are you thinking of hypnagogic hallucination? It's when you wake up but you're still in REM sleep, I've had it happen to me once. I woke up and I could not move, and I was hallucinating (only auditory though, I heard talking and a really loud bang when I actually woke up). A couple minutes later I woke up for real, definitely one of the most unexpected experiences I've ever had.

It's fairly common it called sleep paralysis one of my ex's had it and she would also see things kinda fucked up. No real treatment for it though . . .:-?
 
lol i was geting that shit on a regular basis, so much i learned myself not to panic and ride it out... but believe me i could only last about a minute it was like there was something evil in the room evertime, and the only way out was to force ya self out, doesnt happen that often now hasn't for a year but did last night

Yeah it happened pretty regularly for her, she would snap out of it if I shook her. She saw some pretty scary shit quite a few times too.
 
I'll tell you exactly what it feels like.. feels like the scariest creature imaginable creeping towards you whilst you can't move or open your eyes, and to top it off there is some very scary bakground noises, is kinda hard to explain
 
ok usually i dont know wht im talking about, but i kno this because my neighbor had it happen to him, he freaked out, the cops were called, paramedics showed up, fun n y shit. Its called an extraterrestrial experience, yes, extraterrestrial like an alein, look it up if dont beleive me. But he didnt remember who he was, where he was, wtf?....an when he got medical attention, he told them he was laying in his bed for 3 hours paralyzed before he could get up.
 
i have heard of that

ever since i was a kid i get hypnagogic hallucinations when im falling asleep, i love them hahahahah it makes it feel like my hands are like super huge then transform into super fat or thin or all different shapes, while at the same time you're like tripping off mushrooms one eyeball spiraling seeking out all the little colors in your vision while the other one is spiraling seeking out another color, just tripping out falling asleep love it bahahaha
 
yea its call sleeping paralysis had that once wen i was little but there was no scary atmosphere. i was spendin the night at my uncle house when he woke me up to get ready and leave. i woke up and couldnt move but i can still see and hear everything. i kept hearin my uncle tellin me to wake up while hes gettin ready to go work. i just laid there tryin to get up but cant until he said hes gonna leave me home alone which i was really scare of (i was like 11 yr old) so i started panicking. i felt a hot rush moving up my body then snap! i got up. one experience i will never forget. my parents told me thats what happen wen a ghost is layin on top of you while your sleeping which freaked me out.

The ghost idea is pretty a pretty prevalent way sleep paralysis is explained. Tibetan doctors will tell you it is evil spirits holding you down and give you incense to burn and prayers.:mrgreen:
