Sleep Paralysis and Alien Abductions

I just tryed to post the 3 experinces I've had with SP, but, when I posted it said that there was already a thread with that name and told me to hit the back button and pick a new one. When I did it said the page was expired and I lost about 3700 characters woth of post, so, I'll quickly describe my last experince and follow up later as I'm quite upset right now that I lost all that.

Anyway, happend about a month ago. Was sitting up late reading the aliens and UFOs thread on ATS. Also, I had taken a few hits off a joint while reading. I include this personal information because I noticed a direct link between the first time this happend and the last, as I had used the drug on both occasions and had the same kind of experience. I decided to goto bed. I remember that "drifting" feeling alot of people feel as they fall asleep. An unknown amount of time passed, as I dont remeber what time i decided to goto bed, when I was suddenly awake, but, I could not move. I remember feeling panic and was quite frightened.
I recall a shadow being cast on my mini-blinds from the street light. The shadow resembled that of a "grey". I remember thinking " oh sh*#, I gotta move!!" This lasted what seemed like forever, but, I would guess it was about 45 seconds to a minute. I was finally able to move and quickly jumped outta bed and looked out the window.....nothing. I felt disoriented for about 3-5 minutes. I eventually went back to bed, the rest of the evening being uneventful. This experience was similar to the first time this happend when I was 20. ( I'm 25 now ) Similar, but not the same.

Now, I bieleve in "aliens" but I dont think there hanging outside my window....lol. I do bieleve that the "shadows" were a hallucination brought on by the context of the reading and the sleep paralysis episode.

I will repost all the information I lost earlier, ( I'm still pissed about that ) but im at work and outta time. Plus, I wanted to get some feedback on this to see if anyone gives a damn so I dont waste my time reposting the entire 3700 letter post I wrote earlier. Any feedback is welcomed and appreiciated.

Peace

P.S. Like I said, I'll post all 3 experiences later and it wont seem so....lacking. Also, I just want to let everyone know, I am a stable minded person ( most of the time....lol ) and I do not take any medications of any type. I am also willing to answer a questions you may have.

i was dreaming and i had a ufo hovering above me and i tried running, and did for while, and then i fell down, and could not move. i know the feelingn you are talking about, but i was asleep, if there is any difference...seriously, my eyes are just as open when i am "asleep" then when i am awake. like in the matrix, what if you were unable to wake up from that dream. (not to bug you out, i believe you that you were awake).

but #, i cant imagine how you went back to sleep. i guess the previous experience helped.

when i was real young, i had an experience where i woke up and looked out my window and saw one sitting on my roof, legs hanging over the edge, just chillin. looking back i dont know if it was real or a dream...and im #in pissed, but i'm pretty sure it was real. it was cool tho cuz it was just chillin out on my

ohyeah funny thing:
i was gonna say you got guts to look at this alien # high, but then i realized that i too, am high right now haha. i love weed

peace

I don't do drugs or ever have but im gonna say this..
I was dreaming of me waking up in the middle of the night (it felt so real)
And my blinds were open (usually closed) and i could see a UFO outside my bedroom hovering and sorta looked like a carousel.. i know UFOs wouldnt want lights to avoid attention but this one did..so anyway i started filming it on my cameraphone (was lying on my sidetable).... It kinda goes hazy there. I wake up the next morning and find no video on my phone at all. The experience was as real as ever!
