ItsModella: It happens to me occasionally. I feel like I'm in a coma, aware of my surroundings but my body would refuse to move. To open my eyes is very difficult, like say I dey use the eye lift weight. This happens to me mostly when I take an afternoon nap.

musKeeto: Topic was discussed extensively here
Of course, those who believe in demons and the like refused to shake their useless delusions...

sanchez4eva: This is why Nigeria will never progress....we always attribute everytin to demonic attack...if u do your research u will find out that sleep paralysis is actually a protective mechanism initiated by the brain to prevent us from acting our dreams...like kicking our jumping out of bed...it occurs in the last stage of sleep known as REM or rapid eye movement sleep...Just stop being afraid because it is a normal process...it may occur often if you sleep on your back so start sleeping in your side and do not eat heavily before sleeping...Dr Okonjo

afam4eva: IT has happened to me a lot of times. Most times i want to shout "Blood of Jesus" or call someone to come and help me but no word comes out of my mouth. But sometimes i manage to battle it and i come out victorious. Praise Master Jesus.
