I also don't have any usefull experience with SP. I myself practice MILD and WBTB, and just started to try for some DEILDs, after accidentaly getting a DEILD the other night. |

I used to be terrified of SP and this is probably why. I tried to fight/ leave SP, as do you. Don't bother screaming or trying to move. Instead of trying to wake up, try to sleep. Relax, since you've entered SP you're pretty much set to WILD. |

I always find stories like this interesting. I wake up in sleep paralysis occasionally but I never just have a complete feeling of being stuck like that, I actually hallucinate myself getting out of bed for a couple seconds before I get snapped back into it. I also never really realize what exactly is wrong until I fully wake up, I think I'm just still dreaming too much for it to bother me. A couple weeks ago I had a fairly lucid one though, in reality my eyes were open slightly and I could see my ceiling fan in the top-left corner of my vision, but when I got up and stood at the edge of my bed (feeling strangely heavy and jello-y) I looked down at the floor and saw the ceiling fan spinning right there on the ground next to me. I said "Wait, WHAT?" and then my entire vision except for the fan replaced itself with just the image of my ceiling again and I woke up all the way. I haven't had scary hallucinations from it though, that sounds terrible. But if you want to use it to WILD or whatever I'd say the probably the only way to get over your fear is practice. Like has been said though, you don't have to do it to LD. |

We all live in a kind of continuous dream. When we wake, it is because something,
some event, some pinprick even, disturbs the edges of what we have taken as reality.

Sorry I'm here a little late. Welcome to DreamViews it looks like everyone's answered your questions. My advice to you is to focus on one technique and don't give up. For example try DILD for two-four weeks and if you don't see results try another technique. |
