Had a bout of ****ing sleep paralysis

[Rarely-Wrong Liggins]

Why do these delusions only present themselves during a small window of less than a minute once every several months?

If we're aware of the phenomena of sleep paralysis, our brain should adjust and when it occurs our minds should conjure pleasant images, sights and sounds instead of demons, hags, and disembodied childish chanting.

Also, if our mind creates these thoughts and images to rationalize the phenomena of sleep paralysis why only demons and hags? A thug, ax murderer, vicious dog, or airline crash are more common fears than an old lady bearing down on you.

Science can't explain everything.

Oh, and no one would fear sleep paralysis if not for the auditory and visual hallucinations. I find it strange the brain needs to create fearful images to cope with what should be a pretty benign experience otherwise. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I997 using Tapatalk 2

I used to be religious and I never heard auditory effects. Every experience will be different for every individual. Each person will create what they THINK a witch, demon, whatever is suppose to be based off of what they've been taught or other stories they've heard.

Idk what controls how often it happens but it does, the only issue is how it's handled, and the most popular experiences are those of christians or believers who have used sleep paralysis to justify their beliefs and gullible folk just accept and run with it. "Uh huh, I told you the devil is real. I tried to go to sleep last night and a witch or demon sat on me. That's why I couldn't move" That's incorporating fact with fiction. It's your job to decipher which is which.

But if you've accepted demons cause sleep paralysis, the next time this happens and you see a demon, interview that b---c and report back. I'd love to hear it's responses.

I already know my reaction will be either , or , but humor me. I'm open.

yeeahh, but why would your mind try to produce what i believe a witch looks like as an automatic reflex? why would she appear in the door way? why the fukk is it so vivid?

i wish i coulda been like but when you're frozen and you see something you've only heard about on tv; it's terrifying.

Narcolepsy Symptoms - Sleep Paralysis, Hallucinations, and More

95% of the time it happens when I'm out of my natural sleeping cycle. When I tried to sleep in the day that shyt would happen like clockwork, I used to try an move my fingers to "snap myself out of it" but I ended up feeling stupid so I just accepted it and would wake back up again minutes later.

Never once have I seen some headless horseman or goofy lookin white man sitting by my door/window

not gonna lie. some of that stuff applies to me, not all though.



also i believe in ghosts and have 100% proof my house is haunted and there is multiple ghosts in my house. i wont get into that though because its mostly a lost cause.

maybe one day i will make a thread about it. i have pictures and everything.

two pictures of undeniable strait up demons in my house.


had my uncle and his wife who both deal with that come over and did some crazy shyt in my house. my aunt was taking pictures the whole time while he did his thing. you wouldnt believe these pictues. a lot of them are orbs and smoke, but there are a couple that look like strait up demons. shyt was insane. when he left he was like, there is a lot going on in this house. i need to come back. came back last week and cleaned our house.


anyways he asked me without me telling him how i can deal with sleeping so bad. told me these dudes were messing with me waking me up and what not

 

[Squirtle]

that's why you gottah sleep on your stomach breh

the witch lady bytch caught me a slippin' a few times and those extraterrestrials one time

Breh, I got that sleeping paralysis only once in my entire life and it was when I was on my stomach. It wasn't bad though, I woke up and realized I couldnt move my arms from under my pillow, then found out I couldn't move at all. I knew it was sleep paralysis so I tried to call my girls name to push me or something but I couldnt speak. Eventually it went away and I kind of jumped which woke my girl up and she looked at me like I was crazy. I can't remember if it was before or after the sleep paralysis but I had a dream that something was tying me to the bed facedown. Wasnt scary though.

Not everyone sees the same things. Some people see aliens. It still is interesting how cultures all over the world think it's a witch sitting on you though.

Idk

Thanks, we can move on now. But as a parting shot the poster Marcuz isn't religious. So that argument.

Happens to me once a month on average.

the wildest one I had didnt even involve no visual halluciantions... I was aware and the way my room is set up my window is right behind my bed post, mind you its winter so the glass is foggy as fukk... breh no lie I start hearing wolves howling and then Im like 'oh shyt... wtf' by this point I'm terrified but the howling stops... and what comes next is the sound of horse hooves LOUD as fukk and the horse breathing and shyt right outside my window and doing that sound they do... nd then I feel like a moan or some shyt but it was REALLY low almost inaudible like over me... right then I woke up and I didnt sleep for like 2 fukking days

 

[TheHomie]
