Thread: Spiders... Spiders everywhere...

THANK GOD!!!!!!!!!! Finally...seriously...someone like me!

I complain to DV members on IRC and friends in real life about how I wake up at least once a month and see spiders ALL over my bed. I freak out and usually jump out of my bed and run into a wall... ._. I have looked it up on Google and a few other people have something like this. See here.

My theory is that it has something to do with sleep paralysis. I don't really know how to stop it, so I just deal with it. It happens to me fairly often. It is usually spiders, but sometimes other things. It lasts about ten or so seconds for me as well. Do you run out of your bed too? I'm so glad that someone here on DV has the same problem.

Once I find this weird vision that had been surrounded by lizards from all around. Actually I have a phobia of lizards.

Yes i get the same thing, but only 1 spider, and it always is up on my face or stringing down a web on my face or near my face, i usually move away from it, and once that 5 secs is up the spider disappears. All i know is you have to move your body to make the visions go away. But when i move or shift away it's usually a very fast move i do LOL.

Originally I would, but I'm more used to it now. I can calm myself down enough not to do anything rash. I just sit up in my bed and stare. And do my best not to touch any of them...

But if you do touch one of them, can you feel it?

Hmm, I haven't tried. In fact, that actually seems like the last thing I would do in that situation.

Heh, that's pretty understandable, mate. I don't want to sound like I'm trying to look all courageous and brave, because I'm not, but I think that if that happened to me the curiosity would outweight the fear, and I'd probably try to touch them

Nope, it's just a vision your seeing, i usually try and slap it away lol, it just stood there anyways lol
