Sleep Paralysis

gcgirl · 2008-11-28 23:18:53

I was just wondering if any one else suffers from this? I have suffered from this for most of my adult life and looking more in to it getting information and stuff, I suffer more so when i get stressed, Its a terrifying kind of experiance but kind of use to it now!

I suffer from it. I remember the first time getting it, i got such a fright. But now its not to bad.
I dont get any aliens or old hags with mine. Its just me on my own. Its a little bit dissapointing. So much so that now when i get it, i am pretty much in control and i try to create these "so called effects" But i am unable to.
My sister also suffer's from it.

Ditto! I think everybody suffers from it at some point or another, it's no big deal. Basically when you are asleep your brain paralises your body so you don't physically act out your dreams, however sometimes you wake up and the paralysis hasn't worn off, when it happens to me I find that concentrating on moving a limb or my head etc. brings me more fully awake and the effect goes away.
