Thread: First Sleep Paralysis Experience

Hey Congrats Matt!!

Yah, that hypnogoggia can be really convincing sometimes. You just gotta remember that it's all in your head. You'll eventually be able not to fear it anymore and concentrate on keeping yourself in that 'zone' long enough to slip into a lucid.

Now that you know what it feels like, it should be easier next time it happens.

And remember... there are no aliens coming to take you!

Cool i never hear a voice when i get SP i want one tho Aliens cool !

I think I had my first SP a few days ago, but I didn't hear people talking. I heard a bird chirping, but I'm still not sure if it was in my head or some messed up bird making noise at 1 am.

Awesome! I have yet to experience SP. Next time you get it, try rolling out of your body. Word has it that you can induce highly realistic WILDs that way.

Just to be technical, that was hypnopompic SP because he got it while waking up.

I recently had my first (meaningful) SP experience too . But I broke it because I REALLY wanted to see who was behind me -.-, as that seems to be what happens when I'm in SP. I 'wake up' to someones voice as if they were laying behind me o.o. The first time I broke it because it freaked me out so much, and I didn't really know what the hell was going on . I really want it to happen again .

my SP is freaky
the other night i heard noises it sounded like the devil was in my room
and a bout a year ago trying to AP i once again heard weird ass noises from behind my head i FREAKED and woke up

I feel myself go through the bed every time I experience a SP

At one time I heard AP and posibley SP is witchcraft. (Don't ask me how, its from my religous aunt) But I NEVER try to LD. or go into SP, because i'm always scared to see a dark figure walking towards me in my room when I go into SP. :/

This is what happens to me too. That or it feels like I'm slowly rolling out of my bed. It's very convincing. But, that's how the LD starts. I'll sink through my bed into a foreign land/familiar land, and begin my journey.

I haven't experienced SP yet, but it seems so scary, makes me afraid of doing WILD.

I heard my mom screaming at me. That was scary...

I used to have sleep paralysis fairly frequently but haven't had it as of late...

the one thing I like about sleep paralysis is that it now induces a lucid dream for me 99% of the time, if I see myself in my bed but can't move? Its obvious I'm dreaming and I end up becoming lucid immediately...

this is actually how my first 3-4 lucid dreams all started, from sleep paralysis...

Congrats!
I've been trying to induce SP for awhile now with no success whatsoever, I did however wake up a couple days ago and I couldnt move for a few seconds. Was this my mind waking up before my body?
