MARKone: And never cross your legs while sleeping. I figured that out the hard way after series of attacks that made me even scared to go to sleep at night. REMEMBER!!! Your legs should never be crossed or get tangled with your partner while sleeping. |

Dreamwaker: It's good to know what works for you. Have you actually tried, not praying? Once you realise it's normal and do not panic, you ease out of it and wake up. The fear of dying usually makes one panic that's when you remember all the names of Jehovah that are not even in the bible. But no, it's not a spiritual attack. Apparently no one has died from it @least that I know of. 2 Likes |

VickyRotex: Your body clock has been re-adjusted. Perhaps you made it a habit at some point. Watching late nite movies or waking up very early to work? To reset your body clock try going to bed early and reading a boring book, an old difficult textbook I never like does this for me. (You learn something new and dose off before you know it.) Our body/mind has its inbuilt alarm. I know people who have never set an alarm to wake up, they just naturally wake up at their determined time. |

mhisbliss: This is quite educating. I was once a victim of this and usually occurs when I was working somewhere on the mainland. I will wake up as early as 4a.m in order to beat traffic from the island and coming back home is another story cos I getting home late by 10 or 11p.m. By the time I closed my eye to get some sleep, d next thing was that someone came into my room(either spirit or a witch in my neighbourhood) pinning me really hard on the bed. To open my mouth would be difficult. By the time I regained consciousness, "Blood of Jesus!" or "Jesus!" would be my scream, and I will quickly grab my Bible to pray. Honestly, I thought its the unknown or perceived witchs/ wizards were at work in my sleep. Its quite obvious that religion has clouded our sense of logical reasoning as Africans So that if someone heard a cat's voice at night will shout "I bind you by the blood of Jesus!..." Or the sighting of cockroaches, rats, spiders, wall geckos etc, will quickly begin to form prayer points, or even call pastors. Whereas they forgot to uunderstands that cats are very active at night, and when they are hungry or playing with one another, they seldom make such noises. Besides, dirty environments or rooms breeds rats, cockroaches, spiders, wall geckos and so on. And their presence is inevitable. I pray that our mentality change on this. More ink to your pen MhisBliss for this information. I celebrate your worth. 7 Likes 1 Share |

pressplay411: You're so right about this. Been a long time it's been an habit for me. Right from my undergraduate, when I loved to do TDB at times. And now because I've got quite a lot to do, I really don't see not sleeping long hours as anything. I do exactly what you say about reading a boring book. But it doesn't just work. I'm not really a movie person, so whenever I try to watch a movie, I sleep off, which helps. Besides night is the best time I can study and assimilate faster. Exactly! I cant remember the last time I actually had to set an alarm. I wake up at a time I have in mind to wake up. At times, even when I set my alarm. A minute or few seconds to when it rings I just grab my phone and say "Keep Kwayet" |

I agree, op's explaination was not actually exhaustive on the issue. You need to hear confessions of some occultic/spiritual people to appreciate the depth of realm of "sleep". People can travel while are asleep and do stuffs, does that have mastered the concept. They leave their body and do stuff. Watch the movie Doctor Strange although it's just a movie ...You will have an idea Bnimz: |

When you experience something supernatural, they say you are hallucinating. When you dream about the supernatural, they say your thalamus is sending a poor signal to the cerebral cortex. When you are lost between the future and the past, they say it is dejavuu. They have explanation for every supernatural occurrence, they insult our intelligence, yet they could not explain our beginning.. 4 Likes |

pressplay411: And how would you know if someone died from it, they'd tell you? I've never again had sleep paralysis despite 2. Not getting much sleep (insomnia) 3. Little or no night rest to relax the brain, the brain is responsible for your dreams. 4. Jetlag or irregular sleep pattern 5. Sleeping at inappropriate time, which might be induced by drugs, weed, narcolepsy, night job. When i had it then, i prayed. If you adjust and take it normal, well some people take unclothedness, illiteracy, molestation and physical abuse as normal for them. 2 Likes |

sleep paralysis is like big bang theory, another scientific way of explaining the supernatural for those saying it's purely natural or nothing suoernatural about it. How do you explain folks who experienced "sleep paralysis" and woke up with serious whip or scratch marks on their body or ladies who felt they were penetrated & woke up bleeding from their va-gina. 1 Like |

If there is anything like sleep paralysis sometimes enemies take advantage of it to manipulate, there one family I served before, the woman is into ritual and the son and every time, I always see them in dreams either the son or the woman, no other person in that family that show up in the dream apart from those 2, op how can u explain that. Then why do we have relief once u shout jesus if is not spiritual, sometimes when u sleep in particular compound it always happen there than other places. So explain that to me. 3 Likes |
