Infamous66: Hey.. You are not supposed to wake up when the aliens come to abduct you


Omg don't joke! laugh I honestly felt as though I was surrounded and by pure, unadulterated evil. It took me quite a while to get over the fear.

unlaoised: Frank, what do you think? PSTD? I was under tremendous stress at the time but no PSTD. As Frank said, I hope it was a one-off. Jeepers I feel for you guys who experience it regularly


That's interesting but the thing is it could be caused by a variety of factors. A single factor like stress, for example, doesn't fit with why I've had this on a regular basis from early childhood through to my early thirties

I would like to offer a theory... I'm a spiritualist due to the fact that I have had spiritual experiences all my life... I see spirits and have experienced sleep paralysis in the past..I'm studying metaphysics etc and have come to the conclusion that while our physical body requires sleep...our spirit doesn't and that we astral travel...and that the 'sleep paralysis' experience is our spirit returning to our physical..but sometimes it may take a wee bit longer to align...thus the feeling of inability to move... just like coming out of anaesthetic.

The types of spirits I see vary..some look ghostly...while I have seen others in colourful clothes who look just like you and I..so starting to believe
that there are different parallel existenses..and that we may visit some of these while our physical rests and perhaps entities may visit ours...or perhaps in some cases these parallels may overlap..
If you feel fear of some entity being present... just order it to leave.

I know this all sounds a bit far fetched...and that some people will laugh and scoff at my explanation...but thats fine... and for those of you who are concerned and have an open mind... then perhaps this might
aleviate some of your anxiety.... best wishes..

People are often woken up abrubtly by noise or other family members
or a mother by her crying baby..and if the sleep paralysis phenomenon
was due to the scientific theory of interupted REM stage...then surely
it would be a lot more common... just a thought...

I would never scoff at this. In fact, you're the second person to suggest this to me. Medical science cannot explain everything.
I've had one of these episodes and one dream that were so real, I couldn't tell reality from the "dream". In the case of the paralysis, I thought and felt as though I hadn't had 10 minutes' sleep the whole night, yet the medical explanation says it lasts a few minutes at most confused
All very interesting...

Just remember that this is your life experiences and that you are in control..so if you are visited by some energy...you may not be able to stop them from appearing but you have the right and ability to order them to leave....the negative forces feed on fear and this is what empowers them... so try not to be afraid .. but if you feel helpless in this situation then call on angelic help... we have guides who help us but we have to give them permission... hope this is helpful..

Hi, thanks for your post, very informative and I wouldn't rule any theory out, I'm keeping an open mind on this one. I've one issue with it though; if it is MY spirit returning to MY body then why does it seem intent in scaring the hell out of me?!!

I had sleep paralysis a lot in my teen years and into my early twenties. My feeling about it, is that there is some sort of melatonin imbalance in the brain and part of the brain wakes up, when it's supposed to be asleep. My best advice to those going through a time of sleep paralysis, is to go to sleep with your mouth open. I is very terrifying to be paralyzed with a stuffy nose and closed mouth, so keep that mouth open, so you can breath freely. Don't fight the paralysis ! Give into it, relax and you'll go right back to sleep, I promise. wine
