Had it once and I literally thought I was dying. I woke up at like 3am randomly and couldn’t move my body for some reason. I could only move my fingers slightly. Also kept seeing some weird human like figure that was completely black in the corner of my vision. Maybe it was the shadows of the dark room but it scared the f*** outta me. Basically I lay there until I fell asleep again which was about 2 hours.
Anyone experienced something similar?
a handful of times. the first one was the only one that really freaked me out, saw a face coming through the wall and s***
after that one though i just be annoyed lol like why the hell i can’t move dawg
Yeah happened to me one night and i freaked out thought i was dying fr
Didnt see any demons though
I think I had that waking up and not being able to move thing happen to me a few times, but never seen a demon or anything like that. Sounds scary af.
Looked up thsi shadow person stuff and it’s a thing :
“Several physiological and psychological conditions can account for reported experiences of shadowy shapes seeming alive. A sleep paralysis sufferer may perceive a "shadowy or indistinct shape" approaching them when they lie awake paralyzed and become increasingly alarmed.11
A person experiencing heightened emotion, such as while walking alone on a dark night, may incorrectly perceive a patch of shadow as an attacker.12”
Describe the experience did u also see a shadow person?
It felt like I couldn't move even though I was awake. In the dream I had I dreamt that someone standing over me tapped me and woke me up and I screamed and got this feeling that I jolted up and started running. Then I woke up screaming drenched in sweat. Didn't hallucinate though, that's wild.
Happend to me for the 2nd time last month and I think I freaked out more than before. I started thinking about the possibility of seeing a demon every time id close and open my eyes. Then I suddenly hopped fast af out of bed after a while

Yeah I woke up and I was super sweaty and I felt like screaming but I couldn’t make any sounds. Also my limbs felt heavy for some reason.
The “hallucination” was something I saw when I tried to look to the side becasue I woke up on my back. Every time I glanced to my right or left I saw some shadowy figure just standing there.
Yes I also cannot breathe when being paralyzed. I start to panic . WOAT feeling. It’s been years since I seen any crazy figures tho. I’m just stuck and my ears start ringing like there’s something in the room but I can’t see anything
yeah, one time it was so weird. now i have real paralysis so i don’t need sleep paralysis
Yeh, two years ago I dreamt I was f***in my history professor and when I woke up I couldnt move or speak and there she was at the other end of the bed staring at me with her fine ass
It only lasted a couple seconds for me, was still super freaky though. I know some people see demon s*** and it lasts hours so I guess I was lucky
Had my first one when I was like 12, seen a shadow like figure flying through the room. S*** had me f***ed up then. Now it’s just like “goddamn I gotta wake myself up again”
2 hours tho fam?? Just try to force yourself awake next time, usually takes like a minute or so. Can’t imagine just laying there feelin that s*** for 2 hours

yeah it started after i started getting into lucid dreaming. had visual hallucinations the first time. now i only get it from time to time and nothing visual, just hearing things. either force yourself up or settle into sleep. thats what gets me out
i never try to lucid dream so nah
