I have done that a couple times. I would barely wake up while I would dream that I was fully awake and going about my day, then I would finally wake up, still laying in bed.



that's called a False Awakening

I wake up because I think some1 is touching me or I think that my daughter has climbed into bed with me but I can't open my eyes and I can't move.....I also seem to have scary dreams when this is happening. This morning it happened so many times that I lost count! I thought I was touched, breathed on, difficulty breathing, blanket yanked....the feeling of a presence or being touched is the most common or someone sqeeezing me. When I finally am able to open my eyes no-one is there. It is very frightening to me but I did not know about sleep paralysis until today. I hope that is what is happening! I really feel like a spirit is involved because it seems like they are teasing me or taunting me and it almost seems to be the same spirit. I imagine it to be a child.....I also heard loud buzzing this morning that was my first time for that. I am totally frieked out and hope that is all just a sleep disorder. lol

sleep paralysis can be fun. u can use it as a precursor to lucid dreaming. its not nice to experience, but when u know the signs, u know u are just a step away from controlling your dreams. its way cool.

is it similar to sleep walking?? Ive done that once. I didn't realise till my mum tolled me the next morning, it was wierd it sort of brang it all back.


It is actually the opposite of sleep walking. Sleep Paralysis is caused by a chemical in the brain that paralyzes your body when you are asleep. In sleep paralysis, when you wake up, your body is still paralyzed. This chemical is supposed to prevent you from sleep walking, and can lead to sleep paralysis.

Usually what I do to wake up out of the paralyzed state is to just calm down and focus on moving a part of my body like my arm, and then I just try to move it as hard as I can and once I do that I am awake.

I don't see how it can be "cool". It is the opposite for me.
