new from ireland! Advice needed

hi im 29,im a girl and im from ireland and here's what brought me here;

i found this forum today after some google searches i made after i woke from another one of my 'episodes'.
i don't even know what to say here really, I'm just looking for help,answers or advice from open-minded people.
anyone i have spoke to about this before just looks blankly at me, I've never met anyone that experiences what i do & if i could find at least 1 person here that does i'd be happy.

basically, i've had sleep paralysis for as long as i can remember,all the usual signs,falling, someones in the room, weight on your chest etc etc. sometimes im awake in my dreams if that makes sense? like, i know im dreaming & i can control my dreams sometimes.
but over the last 6 months its been getting stronger to the point where i feel rushes in my body and head,like waves,then these extreme vibrations, i panic because of these things and i start fighting to wake myself up. i don't know what this is, its new. i had grown used to the paralysis and it didn't bother me anymore,but this does. these rushing,waves and vibration sensations only seem to happen when i sleep during the day.
i have no medical conditions, not on any medication... it scares me and i want it to go away...

apologies to admin/moderators if i shouldnt have written this here
thanks to anyone that took their time to read this

Hi Dawnek9 and welcome to ATS there are many threads on sleep paralysis on this site,and a mountain of interesting other threads on various phenomena that people have seen or experienced.So you will find a lot of interest.I have had SP only about 3 times but it was on 2 occasions only a matter of waking up and not able to move or see but i could hear.The other time i got pulled out of my body.

Bout ye hi,

Sorry to hear about the sleep problems. There are some very cool people here who are very supportive and friendly, and also some great information.

Have a look around the threads and see what grabs you, and as tothethenthpower said, get yourself an avatar - that is where I got mine - the good folks at the Avatar Creation Facility

Have fun, and let me know if you need any help.

Flags are a positive thing here. If you flag a thread, then it helps to get it noticed by others.

Please don't use ad blockers here. It's not only against the site's T&Cs, they can limit what works for you here and what doesn't. Just add ATS to your "safe" list so the ad blocker doesn't run here.

I regularly have sleep paralysis. I also get the EXTREME shaking you are getting as well as a rushy feeling to instantly try to wake myself up. i wouldnt worry about it. Sleep paralysis is just weird.

Hi and welcome! What you're describing is called Lucid Dreaming, and what you are starting to do is called Astral Projection.

Here's a forum: MY OBE/Astral projeciton Experiences I wrote that might help you on your journey!

Feel free to message me if you have any other questions.

Welcome to the forums.
I was going to type out a whole thing here but I think you've created another thread about this specifically so I'll add to that instead.
