What happens when you enter sleep paralysis?
For me its simple., my entire body starts vibrating and i see dots of light that grow to cover my field of vision and then disappear, i may also hear airplanes in the distance, but i live close to an airport so...
I rarely get any HH. But I get that nice ringing noise in my ears :) No idea why people think SP is scary
SP for me, my body feels like its starting to float and almost feels like I'm on a roller coaster! HH, I'm not to sure what it means... But as for sounds, I hear people talking right in my ear. It varies though :) I like sleep paralysis and I agree with Doarealitycheck, I don't see if you know about it how it could be scary.
This is gonna sound weird but I have this intense fear of being tickled because I am beyond ticklish. Well, every time I enter SP I usually end up being rolled and tickled but these really thing fingers. Don't ask why because I don't really know. It's weird though.
I just yell at the hands now though and they go away. :D
Beauty is in the eye of the beholder CWH. You deserve much more beautiful dreams than this.
I have only experienced HH a few times. Most were a simple hum and vibration. But the worst time was this horrible VERY LOUD metallic noice accompanied by glowing green lights which morphed into a face that came right at me. Even though I knew exactly what was happening it scared me to the point I forced myself back to reality...and woke myself up.
To Doarealitycheck, some people find it scary cuz they don't know what it is, and they find that they cant move at all so they start hallucinating seeing scary things/demons etc. and they find it harder to breathe. For those of us who learned about it before experiencing it, we already know what to expect and why we shouldn't be afraid.
Anyway, for me I always get the ringing in my ears and a vibrating feeling all throughout my body, which comes and goes in waves, and sometimes is painful. Sometimes i find myself in a black dark void which I am running through until a dream scene appears in front of my eyes, but usually its jst the vibrations and then seconds later I'm standing in my room lucid. Other times I have heard voices of family members which could not have been in my house at the time and its always surprising how accurate they sound.
Moved this to the WILD subforum. :)
I don't usually get that much HI in terms of visions behind my eyelids. Usually my hallucinations involve the feeling that someone is on my bed (I can feel them moving around on it), touching my back or neck, and sometimes vibrations. Sometimes I get a mild ringing too; it's not a high-pitched one, but of a much lower pitch.
You should probably get a life or something, Puffin.
And what exactly prompted this comment? :PQuote:

funny thing about SP is I don't really get the paralysis. I can pretty easily move my body and wake back up until the point that I actually enter a dream, and during LDs I can sometimes do it while I'm dreaming, which I hate because its usually by accident...I usually don't notice any visual HH but when I do it tends to be either blurry images of places and people changing quickly or psychedelic looking designs. I usually hear muffled voices or feel light touches on my skin, I just have to remind myself it isn't real so I don't move to investigate. Every once in a while I'll get that wavy feeling like I'm riding in a car or boat.
Because something important to me personally is to develop the ability to create my own self confidence no matter the situations or conditions, and I think our dreaming minds do this as well, and help, and that They put us to the test. Life away from this forum and death and everything else are part of the all of everything. To me, there is something of a greater order to seek for than Lucid Dreaming. Maybe it could be called "Lucid Awakening?"Quote:

I have pretty normal HH, people, places, objects, etc. I usually hear the constant, one-note strum of an electric guitar. (I play a lot of guitar). And I agree with DoARealityCheck, SP isn't scary at all for me, because I know what it is.
I've actually never really felt sleep paralysis, except for once when I was attempting to WILD during a non-lucid dream. I actually don't usually feel anything, nor see any hallucinations when I am doing it successfully. The only time I feel vibrations is when I enter the dream and will myself to feel them intensely, then I know I'm dreaming because irl I can't do it as well.
