Dreadlock69:I used to have something similar when I was younger. Then it will occur when I was about to wake from sleep and on my back. It will feel as if somebody or something is pressing down on me and lifting any part of my body will be excindingly difficult, I will try to shout but nothing will come out of my mouth and if there is something like lantern or candle in the room, it will seem very far off but after a lot of struggling, it will gradually fades off. I never tell anybody nor have I ever associated it with any evil anything. Now, I am older and have not experienced it again. |

Been more than 10 years it happened to me last. When it happens, focus on moving one part of your body (for me, it was my arm). NOTE: Remove fear from your mind whenever it occurs |

Don't sleep on your back, it helped me. When you're older it should reduce in frequency. |

Vyolet:Beautiful excellent this is what I was scrolling to check if someone would say. I used to have same too but now I control it. Sleep paralysis happens when your mind is not settled before sleeping. Once it wants to start I start shaking my feet and I'll wake up settle my mind and sleep or say a prayer and sleep. Sleep paralysis can also be caused by fear, you don't want to sleep and you sleep trying to wake up at that point cause sleep paralysis |

missimelda01:don't lie facing backwards when you want to sleep. like, you must face upwards(your ceiling) and not against your bed(backwards). |

Sleep with on your right, don't sleep crossing your leg or faced down even if you're feeling cold. Recite Suratul Al-Nas, Suratul Al-Falaq and Suratul Ikhlas. When you're experiencing the sleep oppression, just struggle to recite Ayatul Qursiyyu. Do your Askar whenever you're going to bed. |

Farki:guy i swear you get am. If you lie on your back, it'll definitely happen. |

such has happened to me, but it was the first and last time, I woke up, I can't move or breath properly, I was seeing figures like a spirit approaching me, then it was as if the spirit wants my body, all of a sudden it started to call spirits around our area, before it could finish I struggle out and I bound such spirits and demons trying to take possession of my body, I prayed and it never happened again, mind you this was the first and last experience |

Just ur brain preventing u from acting out ur subconscious movts by stopping certain motor functions. Belief in the paranormal is just superstition. SP happens mostly in times of high stress both physical and mental stress. Demon ko, deliverance ni. |

Dreadlock69:Don't stress bro I used to have sleep paralysis to when I was in secondary school. It's probably due to all the stress we underwent at that particular period. What made mine special is that after a while it just stopped. Like it just never happened again and I am very grateful for that. |
| Re: My Experience With Sleep Paralysis by Nobody: 4:55pm On Dec 11, 2020 |
I experienced this throughout my childhood |

Opexzy:Maybe d village people has taken advantage of op's own or that's it feels when it worsens. |

What you are experiencing is not just completely natural, its also a great ability. You just don’t understand how to utilize it yet. Your fear in those states limits you. There’s absolutely nothing demonic about it. I could show you scientific proven methods to utilize it for good of yourself and your society if you are interested. |

Dreadlock69:Please are you a boy or a girl? And are you bisexual.... I can't get the interchange of he and she in ur write up. The write up exudates such incoherence. You had two partners it happened to. One was a she and one was a he..... |

Farki:I noticed this during mine. It's one thing that makes me sleep sideways nowadays. |
| Re: My Experience With Sleep Paralysis by SmartyPants(m): 5:04pm On Dec 11, 2020 |
Dreadlock69:When you experience sleep paralysis, simply calm down and relax, assuring yourself that you are fine. Breath deeply and slowly. You will snap to of it. If it occurs frequently, it might be a sign of an anxiety disorder. |
| Re: My Experience With Sleep Paralysis by Kevinsamba(m): 5:05pm On Dec 11, 2020 |
I used to experience this when I was little And still experience it now Though rarely. But I discovered that to knock myself out of it I just had to take a very deep breath and I'm back. |
| Re: My Experience With Sleep Paralysis by jakesnite(m): 5:06pm On Dec 11, 2020 |
This is serious. I just discussed my experience with sleeping paralysis as well with my colleagues today. At first I was just talking about it didn't even knee it was sleeping paralysis. It happened back then in my final year in school. I was awake my eyes couldn't open and I couldn't move any part of my body and was struggling to breath. I stayed with family friends back then they even told me they tried waking me up shouted my name and even poured water in me yet I didn't wake at that moment I didn't even realize what was happening to me all I knew was I was struggling move any body part... suddenly i was relieved....it should I say released..... |

Its been 5years since i had sleep paralysis My experience was actually a frightening one and it made me think of it been spiritual It happened early hours of the morning I could sense the brigthness from my window I was been chased by someone I've never seen before, while trying to run i couldn't move my legs I was so frightened in the dream I kept trying to shout"JESUS" my lips couldn't move Couldn't open my eyes when i try to cos my eyeballs won't just rotate even I kept forcing myself to try wake up It lasted for sometime and finally i gained back consciousness I just said my prayers and i have never experienced it since then again I dont think its spiritual and but if you feel threatened you can go ahead and pray |

| Re: My Experience With Sleep Paralysis by MissEfe(f): 5:09pm On Dec 11, 2020 |
I've outgrown mine. Mine was much worst dan yours, but thanks 2 God. i am no longer in that stage |
| Re: My Experience With Sleep Paralysis by Spiritualizt: 5:09pm On Dec 11, 2020 |
OP you made me remember one horror movie i watched some months back called MARA, i think your case looks similar. but i still think sleep paralysis is a medical case not spiritual though i might be wrong but that's just my belief. Try see a doctor to see if something can be done. |
