      Unhappy Cannot go into paralysis

      Whenever I try to go into sleep paralysis, I body becomes itchy and I have to move to scratch it, so I can't go into sleep paralysis.

      I try to ignore it but it only becomes worse when I try to?
      Anyone know how to stop this? This is becoming a real pain when I try to LD.

      I'm not so sure where to post this so I posted it here. Sorry if this is the wrong place.

      I've never gotten SP from trying that way (though plenty have), but you're supposed to ignore the itch. Supposedly it's a test to see if the mind is still awake. If you can ignore the itch long enough, you could get sleep paralysis.

      What I do is visualize myself going down a stairs. Weather it be metal stairs or stairs at the beach, I think how it sounds, how it feels, what it looks like etc. It takes my mind off my body.

      It works for me at least.

      look at the itches as a sign you are on your way. try not to think of your physical body at all through the whole thing. that can help you stop even feeling the itches. helloihello had a great idea with the stairs.

      We agree

      I would also pick the stairs you are most familiar with. That way you have a good visual.
