Hi everyone I'm new here. For most of my life since I was 4 or so I have been having sleep paralysis. It's happened to me about 10 times in my life and I never really knew what it was til a couple years ago. The only lucid dream that I can remember having was when I was at a very young age. It was me being chased by these huge furry monsters in a sewer which quickly changed into me waking up and looking out my window to see my dad shooting someone with a shotgun in their truck. Of course that was me not really waking up and I realized that after what I saw. Recently I have had two times where I have had sleep paralysis and I just cannot get them to turn into a LD as hard as I try. The buzzing in my ears just gets too loud and the fact that I am paralyzed just adds to the alarm I feel when It's happening. So from there I would usually freak out and try to move my body and get out of it. My most recent paralysis, however, I actually tried enduring the buzzing and paralysis but just found it too alarming still to just lay there and let it happen. I was just wondering if I have to lay there and take the buzzing longer or do I have to do something to go into something of a transition?
