      daytime paralysis!

      hey! i read about sleep paralysis a while ago and now ive had it a couple of times! people always say they are scared while its happening, but i thought it was cool, and time for experimentation. it is weird, because i have had it three times now, and its only when i am taking a nap at daytime... but what i think is the weirdest part is that when i try to move, i guess i am still partly dreaming, because i can feel my arms and stuff moving, but since my eyes are open i can see my arms and legs and they arent moving. it feels very strange!

      close your eyes, you will see something totaly different
      "A knight is sworn to valor.
      His heart knows only virtue.
      His blade defends the helpless.
      His might upholds the weak.
      His word speaks only truth.
      His wrath undoes the wicked."

      Impossible is only that which has yet to be imagined

      Are you sure your having sleep paralysis? Usually your not able to move your body at all for a bit... maybe it's only partial for you, I dunno.

      You where looking down on yourself? You could of been having an OBE caused by your paralysis.

      I can relate

      Thats totally ironic. That had just happened to me on 10/21/03. It was weird and freaky at first. It was real similar to what you had explained. My opinion , not really an educated one but. When you are in a lucid dream or a regular dream for that matter, your brain sends a signal telling your motions not to be actually performed. For obvious reasons. I think that when this sleep paralysis happens i believe that you are almost fully concious but your brain is still sending the signal not to move

      yeah, the purpose of sleep paralysis is so you dont actually move around and stuff while you are asleep, you are not meant to wake up during it, but it happens.
