      Unhappy someone help me please..

      hi everyone..

      yesterday, when i took a nap, i tried WBTB and went to sleep again(and really pushed my self to remember to LD)..
      and then suddenly i realized that i was in a dream..

      but the strange thing is, everything started to turn black and i sort of heard strange noises!
      it's like a woman's voice on the back of my head and a quick-wave-like sound in the front of my head
      then i really got scared and woke up
      it's been like this twice..

      is it the end of my dream or it's just the beginning of sleep paralysis cycle?

      thank you..

      I have that quite often. For me it's part of having an out-of-body-experience. Try to command yourself loudly that you want clear vision. If that doesn't help, just wait and relax. If you wake up then, do a reality check, it's likely you're having a false awakening and can continue in a lucid dream from there. If the room you sleep in is dark, try to get outside - just through the wall if it needs to be. OBE vision is strangely different, but dark is dark nevertheless.

      Don't worry, OBE is actually just a dream where people think they are in real life.

      What you had sounds like the end of a dream. Specifically, I'd say the dream ended prematurely, since what you described sounds like sleep paralysis (usually it occurs during a dream, but you might feel/hear/see the effects of sleep paralysis if the dream ends too soon). When you realize you are dreaming, try to keep calm and stabilize the dream by rubbing your hands or spinning around. If this happens again, remain calm and pretend the dream is still going, even if it isn't. This can be enough to put you back into REM. (You got scared, so you woke up. This is obvious, for evolutionary reasons. If you play it as if you were calm, so will your autonomic nervous system, and you will slip back into your dream).

      Good luck!

      Well if you were in a dream then that's an LD. However extreme emotions usually cause a dream to end. And since you got scared that easily could of caused your dream to fade in to black and end.

      Sounds like it was either the dream simply ending, or that you experienced some auditory hypnopompic illusions (basically, hypnagogic hallucinations but AFTER sleep instead of before).

      There is no such thing as a sleep paralysis cycle. Sleep paralysis is the paralysis of your body OUTSIDE of a REM sleep cycle, and can last from a few seconds to a nearly ten minutes. It is sometimes accompanied by hallucinations (of any type) and sometimes not. Could you move? If you could move it is likely that sleep paralysis had nothing whatsoever to do with this experience. I think it was simply the dream continuing with the absence of vision or hypnopomic hallucinations.

      Thumbs up

      Ive been experiencing something similar the last few days. I have been part lucid and realised and woke up and the few times its happened recently, its felt half in dream and half awake. Its like I'm aware of my body while being lucid and it has felt weird, almost like being heavily drugged, with no control of what my mind thinks is my actual body. Its hard to explain but its something along those lines.

      Has anyone else felt this sort of heavily sedated, uncontrolable feeling before waking up from either a dream or lucid dream? and is it common?

      Peace
