I was dreaming of some made-up scene from the Simpsons about Krusty the Clown. Next thing I know, I'm looking at a big television screen. Then the atmosphere goes all creepy and the dream volume increases. I start hearing a loud buzzing noise and everything starts fading black very slowly. I realize I'm dreaming. I know that I wont be able to control this dream so I try and wake up.

I blink really hard twice, and I didn't wake up. I'm starting to get a bit scared and I get a bit petrified by. I try to summon a little nervous breakdown. I start trying to shake my body all over and get myself excited. Turns out, my sleep paralysis wore out the last three seconds of the dream. I woke up shaking my right leg from left to right.

I woke up and looked at my leg which I was shaking. I was still a bit frightened by the dream. I don't know why, it was probably the sound that scared me.

Anyone know how I can do any of these?:

  • Try not to try and exit the dream when I'm in the dream and aware of it.
  • Chill out and relax my dreams.
  • Get more control over my dreams.
  • Remember dream skills (rubbing hands, reality checking, etc).
