Hi Mouse. From the best of my knowledge and the general consensus out there, there's absolutely no need to panic if you experience sleep paralysis. It's a mechanism to stop you from acting out your dreams and can't harm you in any way. It's likely that if you don't think about it too much and panic about it, it would run its course quicker and you may very well find yourself "out of body" and in a lucid dream once your body is given the chance to fall asleep. I have done it many times from middle of the night SP symptoms which resulted in DEILDs. Thinking too much will bring your mind too much back to reality and prolong the process, just like thinking about reality too much during a LD might cause it to lose stability. Just acknowledge it as a symptom you're close, and then forget it. If you're wondering about a technique, I think WILD or DEILD are what you might be after here. Good luck |
