hi everyone …
i have gone almost through all the comments + the head story …
and i do agree that all the guys have mentioned can be true …the spiritual aspect and the drinking .. mental fears …all that might be the reason but we dont forget that there is a medical explanation all the time the sleep paralysis can be explained due to the hormonal flow circle in our body sometimes when we are in a deep sleep the hormones will take a few minutes to release the muscle f the arms and legs and that explain the lake of movement u guys experienced.

I had a similar thing, but I was in my basment. I have a pellet stove, and I was sitting g near it, doing what 14 yr old guys do, lighting matches lol. But then a match lit on it’s own, and it became dark, and it creeped me out. But I pray a lot before I go to sleep, so nothing further happened.

This is called sleep paralysis. Nothing to worry about.

Most likely this is a poltergheist. Poltergheist comes from the two german words:
polter = noisy. gheist = ghost. So ‘noisyghost’. Usually these types of entitys enjoy playing jokes on the living. If it moves anything dont interfear. Sooner or later it will put the object back. Oh, they also know when you’re scared. Most ghosts do,

Ah, good old sleep paralysis. I’ve had episodes all my life, with a sudden increase in frequency in the past few years. After a little research, my mind was set at ease. And for your enjoyment and education, known causes:

1. Sleeping in a face upwards or supine position
2. Irregular sleeping schedules; naps, sleeping in, sleep deprivation
3. Increased stress
4. Sudden environmental/lifestyle changes
5. A lucid dream that immediately precedes the episode.
6. Excessive consumption of alcohol coupled with lack of adequate sleep.

As the increase in frequency took place after joining the Army, 5 out of the 6 fit me perfectly.

In short, it’s no Hag. No demon, no devil. And to those of you that think so and turn to your faith in God for comfort, I say this:

Sleep paralysis is caused more often than not by your God’s faulty wiring of our little brains. Save the fantastical stories for the authors and screenwriters and do a little homework before you puff your own head up with this supernatural nonsense. If you really want to rid yourself of your “demon,” treatment starts with education. Put down your Bible, and pick up a text on the subject at hand.

I too have had this several times over a few years. It is my understanding that everyone whether they remember or not,two or three times a week your spirit will leave your body. sometimes it crosses over and goes HOME other times it might just fly around the house or even far distances. When this paralysis happens your body is starting to wake up before your spirit got back in.Sometimes your body will jerk like you were dreaming of falling out of bed or off a cliff or something.

I have this too, and it IS common. However, I don’t belive all the stuff about the TV and the remote. Maybe it’s sleep paralysis AND a poltergiest- you are only 12, and poltergeists tend to linger around teen girls from 12-15 years of age, however I have not experienced much activity yet (I’m almost 14). This is scary, dude.

I have had sleep paralysis for many years. In my experience i wake up feeling like someone is sitting on my chest and choking me. I cant not move to try to wake my husbnad up to help me. I began having this in 1999 when we moved into our new house we are buying. I always feel like i am being watched and am afraid to stay at home alone.. The house is 35 years old and i dont think anybody has died there but one boy had MD. Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Try to control your “dream”. Don’t be afraid and make some moves. You’ll see that it’s not so difficult. If you feel someone beside you, just start singing or yelling… I know it’s stupid, but it helps!

Hi…
I had similar experiences in my room. It still happens simetimes, but I have learned how to protect myself. Long story… I’ll give you an advice. Call a priest or a monk or just go to church and ask for a special prayer. That can help.
The most important thing is that you don’t panic. When you fill the ghost’s touch, just struggle. And leave the lights on, play some music… They say that ghost don’t like noise and light.
Be brave! That’s the point.

I have had similar experiences more than once, actually some weeks i have it quite frequently. the only difference is, I do not see, hear or feel any type of paranormal entity. When this happens to me, it feels as if my body is still sleeping but my mind is awake. I try with all my might to open my eyes but only to fail every single time. Sometimes, it will feel as if I have awaken and gotten up, only to find i am still in the bed. I can hear things around me but it’s like i am paralized. I wake up eventually just as im about to give up.

It’s the scariest feeling in the world.
It hasn’t happened in a while and I thank God for that.
Hope it doesnt happen anytime soon.

maybe try taking in the events that are happening around you.look for clues as to why they may be contacting you during your sleep.stay calm n focused and take it all in.see what channel its looking at.whats on the channel.it cud be messages warnings anything is possible.try talking to it in your mind and listen to what it has to say. iv only ever eva had 1 sleep paralysis which was intense i saw a demon image and started getting thrown around my bed read my story NIGHT TERROR OR DEMONIC POSSESSION http://www.trueghosttales.com/paranormal/night-terror-or-demon-possession/

I have these dreams all the time. I have these dreams and they r the only ones i can remember. I sleep with my eyes open n when im sleeping scary things happen. i can see everything in the room. Sometimes things move and i cant do anything about it. I been doin research and apparently its from sleeping deprevation and lack of good eating but i eat pretty well.. i dunno….but ur not the only one.
