In addition, the paralysis may be accompanied by terrifying hallucinations (hypnopompic or hypnagogic) and an acute sense of danger.[9] Sleep paralysis is particularly frightening to the individual because of the vividness of such hallucinations.[8] The hallucinatory element to sleep paralysis makes it even more likely that someone will interpret the experience as a dream, since completely fanciful or dream-like objects may appear in the room alongside one's normal vision. Some scientists have proposed this condition as an explanation for alien abductions and ghostly encounters.[10] A study by Susan Blackmore and Marcus Cox (the Blackmore-Cox study) of the University of the West of England supports the suggestion that reports of alien abductions are related to sleep paralysis rather than to temporal lobe lability.[11] Some authors have warned of the possible misconnection between child sexual abuse (CSA) and hypnagogic/pompic phenomena and have noted that some clients after having described such an event to a fortune teller or psychic that the psychic may have suggested CSA.

If it happens again, call to Jesus Christ. Laugh if you must but it is worth a try. I have come across endless accounts of alien abductions that were halted by that name alone. He WILL protect you. These are not aliens from distant planets. These are extra dimensional beings, demons, fallen angels. I'm not one to preach to anyone, I'm not even religious, but in light of recent information found in my years of research, this is the conclusion I have come to. If you do not feel love, if they do not try to comfort you and assure you that they are only there to help, I beg you, call out his name.edit on 28-3-2011 by Ear-Responsible because: (no reason given)

I have a dream before where I must have woke up four different times, each time I was certain I was awake. And each time "I woke up" I tried to look around me and there would be different people in my room. I'd get freaked out, try and wake up and then i'd "wake up" in the dream and feel relieved unlit i saw these people again. By the time i actually woke up in the real world I felt that exhausted and sick i knew I must have been paralysed in mysleep and struggling to move for ages.
I am not sayin it did not happen but I have had many dreams that look and feel just like im lying in bed and always make me feel paralysed.
Edit to say that I agree if you do this kind of thing again look up crystals that have protectional properties, even look into the protectional circles you can cast around yourself, even if you dont belive in them they may act as some way of putting your mind at rest and I used the protectional circle a lot when I used to perform spells and try and contact spirits ect.edit on 28-3-2011 by eyesdown because: just adding a lil mo'

The difference is the bad is out there actively seeking who they can attack. You have to seek the good.
