Thread: Hello! I just found the site. I have been having Lucid dreams all my life &...

Wow this is extremely similar to my story. For me it started when I was about 4 and it also was a demon. As a little kid I called the thing Peter in the Heater. He looked like a burnt charred stick thingy that was shaped like the letter Y. Like a stick with mandible pinchers on the end. He would come out of the heat register in the floor and talk to me or grab me with his pinchers. That fear that i felt was a very particular feeling. As I got older the form changed and I started having speep paralysis. That very distinct fear was always the common element though out. Also for me there was always a deafening noise and the fear would set in before the thing would actually appear. When I was in my 20's I had a few confrontations with the thing. And like you I would win some and loose some. For me it was all about managing fear. I know what you mean when you say there's nothing more terrifying. Unless you have experienced it you just don't know. Eventually I decided to stop running and I would fall to sleep with the idea of seeking a confrontation with the thing. After a few times doing that I was able to stand toe to toe with it with out any fear and it hasn't come back for many years now. Keep fighting, be Brave! it feeds on your fear. And despite how much pain it inflicts, you will always wake up. Eventually you will chase it not the other way around.
