Thread: What to do after sleep paralysis

No, don't get me wrong, my eyes were indeed shut for a good 30 - 45 minutes maybe even longer. I think I wasn't tired enough to fall asleep. Another question would be canI fall asleep with the blanket over my face and still have a lucid dream or does that have nothing to do with it?

I don't think it would make a difference unless it blocked your breathing or something. You may find that there is something constantly on your face in the dream though.

What do you mean by something constantly on your face?


An experience I had about last year around this time, I didn't even know of lucid dreaming at the time, but I woke up, rolled onto my back, after a minute or two my body became forzen and my eyes were still open, no closing of them whatsoever. I was scared because I couldn't move obviously and I didn't know what in the world was going on. So from what I read if i were to have shut my eyes I could have lucid dreamt? Or was myself being frightend keeping that from happening?

basically like someone sat on ur face just the only example i can give

You could have done a WILD if you had tried. And yes, your fear was keeping you awake.
