Hi guys Im new here.

I've been studying sleep paralysis and trying to get in it for my self experience.

I have read that it can be scary and terrifying but I find what I have read to be fascinating and I've been trying to induce sleep paralysis for my self.

Every nite now I go to bed and try to relax and I am finding my self relaxing so far I think I have fallen asleep because I even started snoring! But I know I can't still move. My whole body becomes numb from laying still for so long, I can remain still for an hour or more and if I go longer the numbness feeling gets more intense. I have felt something pressing down on my chest and holding my wrists but I know I could still move and talk if I wanted to.

After so long like this an hour goes by the feeling tends to fade and I wake back up with out any further experience. I lay on my back legs spread out and arms down my side.

Any info on what IM doing wrong would be great.

Also through out this experience I haven't felt any fear in fact its rather relaxing and it clears my mind from stress.

Thanks for any advice in advance
