3 Nights - 3 Bouts of sleep paralysis, and one strange event

**imKirkC** · 06-28-2012 12:55 PM

So im wondering why, after a few months of no sleep paralysis what-so-ever, WHY am i experiencing sleep paralysis night after night.

Interesting note: on the third night, I thought:

"Screw it, every damn time I wake up in sleep paralysis I am in a damn uncomfortable position, and want to freakin move to become more comfortable."

Well, since I dont wanna focus on my uncomfortability; I may as well open my eyes and have a gander... - BIG MISTAKE - i instantly hallucinate that I'm in my old house stairing at the wall next to my bed, something is SCREAMING VERY LOUD into my head, like a scream that is beating to the rhythm of a heart, I think of a heart and so my vision becomes red, its getting louder so i shut my eyes. Next I hear a cat meowing behind me; since im in sleep paralysis i cant move, so what does my brain decide? Hey you cant see that cat IT MUST BE SINISTER and fear floods my brain.

Im very good at controlling fear, so i shut it all out and overcome it in no time, but im definitely gonna open my eyes to see what "cool" things happen next time.

Another thing:
Was I dreaming that I was in sleep paralysis? I'll never know...

From what you wrote it seems to me that this was the case.
You can seamlessly transfer into a dream from SP, especially when you close your eyes... So it's hard to tell, especially when you are still laying the same way once you are in the dream.

What makes me think that you were in a dream is that your whole house won't change during a SP... if you are truly in SP, then you are laying in your real sleeping place. I doubt you could hallucinate a whole new place... Hallucinations can affect reality, i had experiences like that, but my whole laying place never changed, except when i was in the dream already.
