Is your sleeping schedule stable? Have you experienced any stress before it started happening? |
|
Okay well, Ever since sunday I have been having sleep paralysis just before bed everynight, usually I only got it once a month if lucky, now suddenly I get it every night and I want to know why. Of course its an amazing feat for an option for lucid dreaming, but everytime it happens I have some sort of blood curdling yelling or screaming in my ears and it feels like im being electrocuted or on fire. And after a few seconds of it just feeling so weird and creepy, I wake up then fall asleep an hour later, does anyone have any help or opinions? |

There are several factors which can contribute to SP. First, it is important to make sure you're properly diagnosing this as SP. In short sleep paralysis is waking up, except that you're still paralyzed and your brain is also still in nightmare mode. It is sometimes associated with hallucinations, visual, auditory, physical, and often associated with the feeling of a "presence". |

I'm not always lucid, but whether I'm awake or asleep I'm always dreaming.
For about a year, when I was 15-16 years old, I had SP several times a night before falling asleep. I'd start drifting off, and once I got relaxed I would feeling a rushing in my head and realize I was paralyzed. I'd try to move until I could, and then it would happen again, so often I was afraid of staying still for too long and I had difficulty falling asleep. Trying to figure out what I was experiencing online was how I found out about lucid dreaming, so it was good in a way. |

I envy you! Honestly, if I had sleep paralysis every night, I would be able to turn it into a WILD with ease. |
