First time I experienced it was in 2013, I went to supervise the building of a hostel in Ibillo, I felt someone like an old woman approach the window, then the experience started, I was screaming Jesus inaudibly yet the presser pressed me to its satisfaction grin

The worst experience was in 2019 when I went to supervise a renovation at Ekpoma, I felt the walls of a standard room closing in on me, then the pressing started, it was the longest and scariest I ever had, I woke up and felt probably it was the clients nephew who threatened me when I first got there that was behind it grin

I always seem to know when it is about to start, if I am fast enough to lie on my side, I can escape it, lying on my tommy makes it lesser or even does not happen but lying face up seem to be an invitation grin grin grin
Yes, you are right.
It's advisable to sleep on your side especially right side first

It's called witchcraft oppression I don't discard the fact that there's no sleep paralysis but if it happens often I have suffered from this for over 20 years it's target is to harvest your glory and render you useless but believe me if you do nothing about it your life may have no headway that's the truth seek for real deliverance or do some natural remedy to stop it

I don’t know if it’s sleeping paralysis or spiritual paralysis.

I moved to a room that belong to my late aunt, in two weeks, I had more than 3 sleeping paralysis.

The first time I had sleeping paralysis, I just shouted “Jesus” instead the normal “in the name of Jesus”. Because there’s belief that shouting “in the name of Jesus” will set you free if you experiencing the spiritual attack.

But note; if you are not strong enough, you might not be able to complete the sentence and the potency is in name.

So when I had sleeping paralysis I just shouted Jesus” and I was set free.

I had to go back to my room after few weeks. At lest, nightmare is better than Sleeping paralysis and incessant migraine.

The nightmare continues.........

Do not sleep facing up, you can lay sideways (fetal position) or facing the bed
You can lay facing the ceiling only if you cross/fold your arms

I can still remember well that I experienced a sleeping paralysis when I am 12.
Out of ignorance,I taught I was going to die.
I just noticed am aware of my environment but I can't move or talk.I tried calling for my mom but it was as if I am in the spirit realm. I know I was shouting but my mouth is not open despite the fact that I keep shouting and shouting "Mummy! Mummy!
It was a terrible experience for me.

It's spiritual, It usually happens to me before but stopped when I became serious in prayers.

Very correct. When you engage in prayers fervently it stops. I can't remember when last such thing happened to me.

Watch those who hate prayers and spiritual things generally will hate this truth and prefer to worship psychology and other grammar of the white man.

This is apt. If you're a victim of constant sleep paralysis, don't sleep with your back to the ground. You either sleep sideways, or sleep with your belly to the bed
Re: Share Your "Sleep Paralysis" Experience! by Entimz: 7:16am On Dec 04, 2021
Sleep Paralysis are caused by Demons Incubus(male) or Succubus (female) This demons are responsible for sleep paralysis and they can finish person career if not tackled well and on time. Cos most of them in the act have sexual intercourse with their counterpart which will make them Physically barren but spiritually fruitful. But science sees it as either hallucinating, lack of sleep or bad sleep cycle and more

But they didn't witch dey press them unlike the narrative we africans normally uses attributing everything to witchcraft, unfortunately enough i was invited to a harvest in a baptist church in warri here and the bishop incharge of the branch unfortunately enough he holds a phd in theology and have also authored several books he opened his mouth spewing trash and said that there was a day he was pressed too and he started speaking in tongues and immediately he saw an old woman standing by his window like a stone and that the woman was the culprit! Am woke and not stupid, i cant be fooled or deceived, I DONT BELIEVED IN WITCHES AND I DONT KNOW OR CAN'T IF THEY REALLY DO EXIST. in life what you believe is what works for you.

You gerrit. I've had this experience countless number of times when I lie facing up. Since I discovered the secret, I have stopped sleeping in that posture.

What if the person now give up from there ? It will now turn to a case of sleeping and not waking up again
Onliie:
You can break sleep paralysis by holding your breath during the session. Adrenaline release will trigger your body to wake up instantly. Confirmed.

It is called incubus, caused by dark elements of principalities and principalities themselves.
Elements of dark principalities include but not limited to witches/wizards, demons, deities, spiritual manipulators like native doctors, occultists etc, marine agents etc

The author just wrote a shallow essay of what he did not know.

This happens to me once in a while when I am sleep deprived. But sleeping on my back is like giving it an invitation card. The shit almost got me thinking, my village people have finally caught up with me, but na small challenge.
No, sleep on your back for a some months let's see if your life will remain the same.
Why avoid sleeping on your back if na small challenge

It can be caused by sleep deprivation. But e no dey happen to me again even though I hardly sleep at night.
Sleep deprivation can only make you wander intio meaningless and harmless dreams, however it can open up portals in your soul for dark agents to do their things

Re: Share Your "Sleep Paralysis" Experience! by judedwriter(m): 9:43am On Dec 04, 2021
In my own experience, sleep paralysis or witchcraft 'pressing' come when I am at the edge of breakthroughs or blessings.

They 'press' you to steal your blessings and make you live a poor life.

No one envies your blessings like witches and wizards. The more blessed you are, the less control they have over your destiny.

I kept money inside my pocket and slept off. I saw Peter entering my room, and then he searched my pocket and took out my 5k.

I was trying to open my eyes but I couldn't. I tried saying a word but I couldn't. I started breathing heavily.

I had to keep increasing my breathing level until I woke up breathing heavily. I searched my pocket and saw my 5k.


Had it been I couldn't find my 5k, Peter would have been in trouble.
lol, na God save Peter

So y do u beat it if it's spiritual? How on earth do u knw wen a spiritual attack is abt to hit u?

Do you know that humans are actually spirits? The body is just a container. When a man dies, his spirit leaves the body and that's why the body decays after sometime because there's no host in it.
It's not just this "sleep paralysis", people can actually sense when something bad is about to happen, sometimes you feel uneasy with yourself or environment, your instincts just keeps pricking you to do something or leave a place or not to go somewhere you planned on going.

I'm sure you must have had someone say something like that or even a personal experience.

I don't know exactly what always causes my sleep paralysis but I know whenever I'm at it, I always scream out loud while sleeping.

Mine doesn't come often, perhaps once in two months but I'll always have my brother to thank cos he's always there to wake me up from the paralysis.

How does he know when to wake you up?
Re: Share Your "Sleep Paralysis" Experience! by bn2murphy(m): 10:42am On Dec 04, 2021
It may sound funny to some people but it's real.
It has happened to me in the past, but i feel it's demonic, but can be proven.
I have had cases that i imagine flying why laying down asleep with eyes open.
Some says it has to do with cob webs or wallgecko staying near ones head.
But with this topic, i will do my further research.

I found this.
Sleep paralysis
A temporary inability to move or speak while falling asleep or upon waking.
Usually self-treatable
Usually self-diagnosable
Lab tests or imaging not required
Sleep paralysis most often occurs in people who have narcolepsy or sleep apnoea, but it can affect anyone.


author=Xenry post=107641782]Sleep paralysis (plural: sleep paralyses) is a state, during waking up or falling asleep, in which a person is aware but unable to move or speak.
During an episode, one may hallucinate (hear, feel, or see things that are not there), which often results in fear. Episodes generally last less than a couple of minutes. It may occur as a single episode or be recurrent.
The condition can be triggered by sleep deprivation, psychological stress, or abnormal sleep cycles. The underlying mechanism is believed to involve a dysfunction in REM sleep.
Have you experienced sleep paralysis before? Share your experience!

To some, it's demonic. To others, it's pretty normal. Share your own experience.
