Thread: The "Evil" in SP

I wish I could provide you with an answer but, sadly, once I exit a lucid or non-lucid dream, I've yet to be able to slip into another lucid. I am only successfully with WILDS.. I have yet to have a lucid dream with either FILD or DEILD.

I used to get SP fairly regularly when I was younger (along with lucidity, but I didn't know the possibilities and wasted my chances...).
Mostly, I would wake up with the feeling that there was someone standing over me, just out of sight in the dark. Sometimes I could even feel their breath, but I couldn't move my body at all and trying to scream never seemed to produce more than a squeak. Funnily enough, it scared the hell out of me...

Although it never led to lucid dreams, it seemed to lead to more vivid dreams
, usually of being tickled for some reason?!

SP stands for Sleep Paralysis. The definition of SP and other acronyms can be found here:

Alright. I love sleep paralysis myself. I find if i dont move a muscle i can keep fading back into the border between sleep and wake and hear all those crazy screeching sounds, and feel my face caving in and get the vibrations and all the mad shit that comes with it. One time when everything went black I decided to think about myself rotating and I swear to god I went into this mad spiral that felt like I was flying through space rotating at about 90 MPH.

I used to get to scared to go all the way from wake to sleep consciosly because of the sounds and the shadows and vibrations and all that madness but once you get by the fear barrier you can watch every step of yourself go from being awake to dreaming. A problem I have sometimes is I feel mad pressure on my back like someone driving a pneumatic drill into my kidneys and I get worried that its really happening and that im gonna have a ruptured kidney so I wake myself up but logically theres nobody driving a jackhammer into my back so I drift back into sleep.

Its funny seeing how the dream starts. Once I had super mario drag me by the legs all the way into a dream another time a big cat clawed me and dragged me onto a bus and I was dreaming. Other times scenery just appears but it does happen alot that someone or something drags me by the legs into a dream. I swear to god one day super mario dragged me by the legs all the way down a staircase in a castle to start the dream off.

The three or so times I have experienced SP... I DID NOT LIKE IT AT ALL!!!!.

Well after watching the boogeyman or something like that I was lying face up and bed and could not move at all and I heard a high pitch white noise and a horrible I mean god awful sense of impending doom like the devil was next to me. But it wasn't the devil it was a shadow that was looking down at me and I began to sweat profusely. It said something like "Times up now what are you going to do?" which freaked me out more and then it ended.

Another time I had been in a dream listening to a walkman or something when I opened my eyes I heard that damn high pitch white noise which is always a sign that I am SP and there was a shadow again near the bed looking at me and I couldnt move for the life of me scared me shitless needless to say and I also recall some shadows flying around the ceiling at least it didnt say anything.

Still SP has to be one of the worst experiences I have ever had.

As for Clairity that story I feel your pain SP is scary unless of course it is the peaceful SP that proceeds into a Lucid Dream, not the presence of evil, impending doom, or an astral attack.

Brandon Heat, I agree. In fact part of me wants to avoid reading this topic for fear that just reading about SP will bring the "old hag" back!

But that's just silly .. right?
