Why Would You Want Sleep Paralysis?

Just wondering, but why would someone want to induce sleep paralysis? I find the whole experience frightening!

WILD

Because it always makes you lucid, plus you only have to wait a few moments to be in a dream, I used to have this all the time as a child, but as I get older it happens less, one night I was worried it might happen and just out of chance it happened twice that night, one experience almost made me quit lucid dreaming, but I relised it's all in my head, and said I don't mind if it comes again because I'll be able to face it, and it will become way less scary, so look at it like that.

It's only scary to me if I wake up while I'm still in it. There is nothing scarier than waking up and not being able to move or talk very well. xD

As for when I'm falling asleep, it's only exciting and fun because I know at this point I'm about to WILD.

i woke up is sp before, and broke out of it. felt like all my energy was sucked away for a minute or two.

interesting...

I love Sleep Paralysis now.

I used to absolutley hate it and was terrified of it when I was young.

The rushes I get, the bizarre but very cool hallucinations I sometimes get. The feeling that I'm leaving my physical body is quite cool as well.

You just have to get used to it. It takes time. And once you do, you really start to appreciate all the sensations you get during it that you will almost never feel during real life.

It's a great way to open up a lucid dream, not only because it means you are in REM sleep, but because it's fun! :wink:
