Sleep Paralysis is ing nuts. Pretty sure I was going to die when it would happen to me. Panicking made it so much worse.
Anyone experience this or go through either ever? Not fun.

I had sleep paralysis for awhile, especially when I was having bad sleep apnea.
A couple years ago, I fell asleep and sort of dreamt/hallucinated that a group of hooded people were standing over me in my bed, about to get me. So half asleep I ing jumped out of the bed and awoke to find myself standing in the hallway with the doorknob in my hands, ripped it right off.
I never had my head explode though, so can't comment on that.
I hadn't had it in years, but had it happen last night. Like I said, not fun.
I woke up and there was a dark malevolent feeling figure standing over my bed holding my down and I couldn't move or make a sound. Loud buzzing noise and my dog was growling..
Eventually moved my finger and faded out of it, but didn't sleep well the rest of the night. Sleep apnea and sleeping on your back def do not help.
Almost the same here. More of a black plastic bag/shadow holding me down.
Yeah, it's ing horrible yet somewhat interesting afterwards. Some of these people's experiences sound much more terrifying though:

Yes. My entire bed was shaking and I felt a presence in the room that was demonic or alien. I couldn't move anything but my eyes. Then I "woke up" fully, my animals on the bed hadn't even twitched, and everything was fine. Never happened again
That's the worst part! I've read that kind of just going with it helps, but that's a little hard to do to say the least.
Someone started a thread about this a while back. I'd never heard of it and now I can't believe how many people have it.
sounds ty.
Def ty - I hadn't had it in years so to have it happen again the other night was startling.
Found the other threads from here in the past:

sounds scary. i've heard about it before but didn't know there was an actual name for it.
I've had sleep paralysis so often that It doesnt scare me anymore tbh
That sounds horrible SIA.![]()
Yeah, I've read that you can have some awesome out of body experiences if you play it right - it's just difficult when you feel like you might die.
It's evil hyper-dimensional en ies attacking your soul as you sleep. I've had them before and they are scary. The only way to make em go away is to say an our Father and a hail Mary, and they disappear.
Had it a bunch when I started sleeping on my back after years of sleeping on my sides. Once I knew what it was, I would just go back to sleep
I've had an OBE once tbh
Another night I also dreamed I was being abducted by Aliens; was realistic![]()
Did P.K. Subban save you?
was your ass sore?
No the Aliens looked like KKK members from the future

Holy I just experienced exploding head syndrome for the first time, not fun at all. I dreamed there was a lightning strike nearby so I wanted to wake right up and unplug some of my expensive electronics and I couldn't move. And then I kept hearing more and more nearby lightning strikes and I was paralyzed and I just kept wanting to get up and unplug the computer, the stereo, the TV, etc like I usually do when there is a really intense thunderstorm coming through. I woke up thinking there was a big thunderstorm until I got conscious enough to remember there was nothing like that forecast in the area. I have had sleep paralysis before, mostly 10-15 years ago, but this is the first time I have ever experienced loud sounds. When I would get sleep paralysis before all I'd hear is an industrial fan and I'd dream there was green light shining through the fan (think the crystal meth palace scene in Breaking Bad, but this was years before the show). But damn, never anything like the loud lightning strikes I just hallucinated. And I didn't hallucinate any colors.

I've had this happen a few years ago the night after I had back surgery. Scary as . I woke up and saw an all black silhouette that walked slowly towards me. I was trying to scream for help but nothing was coming out. It got all the way up to me and stood right next to my bed and I tried to sit up, then it put one finger on each shoulder and pinned me down while leaning over me and I woke up. I honestly can still feel where it pinned me down because it felt like it was burning.
was crazy.
I've since read that it happens fairly often to people that were put under for an operation earlier in the day.
Sleep paralysis is terrible. I would try to make a noise loud enough so that my wife would wake me up.
I used to have exploding head syndrome every night when I was about 13. I'd actually wash out my underwear the next morning because I was so embarrassed.
I have Sleep Paralysis every once in a while. The key to everything in life is to not panic. I was really surprised the first time it happened that I did not panic.I was almost defiant telling the "demon" there is nothing you can do to me that I fear.
