Today I've wanted to take a closer look at sleep paralysis and all the questions connected to this subject. Unfortunately, this isn't something new for me as I was exposed to this sort of occurrence many times before. From my own experience, I can say that this is a living nightmare. I'm able to fall asleep, but then suddenly I'm starting to feel conscious, and I can have my eyes opened, but then I'm still half asleep, so I don't have any control over my mind. Even though my mind is awake, my body is still paralysed.
I couldn't distinguish all the phenomena before, but it seems that I passed all three stages of sleep paralysis. One of them is called "incubus" - but the definition is quite different from what usually is associated with "the incubus" known as an evil spirit. During this kind of paralysis, I witness a feeling of suffocation, experienced by the unknown energy. The second stage can be known as "the intruder", this one can be interpreted as some sort of kinetic visualization. And then let's go to my favourite one! This is what is otherwise acknowledged as "OB", which means Out of Body Experience. It's usually a rough feeling of your "spirit" disconnecting from your body, and you can even start to consider yourself as an eternal being. You can discover more info under THIS link.
This usually happens to rather young people from 10 to 25 years old. It feels so real that sometimes it's impossible for me to distinguish a dream from reality. And then my mind's making an attempt to wake up, but for a horrible long moment, I'm not even sure if I wake up alive. This is something that I've been dealing with for years and let me tell you that it isn't certainly a nice feeling, but at least it is inspiring in some sort of way.
Some extras:
As I sometimes overshare, I've decided to describe some of my vivid dreams (they are countless, but recently these are my top 3).
1) I'm a shapeshifter, and lately, I was dreaming of being a 12-years old boy, who needed to face Pennywise. I was supposed to that with a group of the other wonderful kids. The rules of beating up the monster were to drive cars without doors and doing that next to some old barn.
2) That was actually a long ago, but I remember dreaming about the election in the US. In this dream, a Pole beat Trump and became the President of the United States. The whole election took place in a huge stadium. Later on, a new president experimented on the fetus to create a new form of a human.
3) I was also dreaming about being at a sophisticated party (something like "Eyes Wide Open", but without the nasty part). And suddenly, it occurred to me that I was participating in a process of planets' creation from a sticky matter. One of the planets looked like Jupiter.
