This the brain releases a chemical to keep you from hurting yourself in your sleep. The problem with sleep paralysis is when you wake up while your brain is pumping out this cocktail to keep you from moving while asleep.
I'm just glad that I am not a sleep walker. My friend is and she has fallen down stairs, hit herself to the point of bruising, woke up in the bathtub, etc...LOL*Stopped smoking crew* 2 years and 5 month bishes, and counting.*

I've had it a couple of times. The horriblee thing when I get it is I feel like I'm not breathing and am suffocating.
Scary as chit. Once I had it and it was more of a dream and there was a dog lying across my chest, I was petrified, couldn't move or breathe. had the other kind where there's a non-descript vague outline of a dark figure

happens frequently. Sleeping on my side helps, but it fuking hurts and i wake up with sore shoulders the next day haha. I've seen and heard some CRAZY **** during my sleep paralysis episodes. most notably, being pulled by my foot towards the window even though i was in bed the whole time. weirdest feeling ever, literally I could feel like i was being dragged, by a satanic looking goat/bear creature with red eyes and crazy horns, but remained stationary. **** was cray. Kinda used to it now, if it's not too bad i just go back to sleep afterwards and forget about it .

had it while at a meditation camp, thought my room mate had come and sat on my chest and held me down.
When i could finally moved i opened my eyes to see there was no one in the room.
We weren't allowed to talk to each other so i was a bit paranoid about the whole thing, though it was small fry compared to some of the other stuff that happened.

i used to get it as a little kid pretty often. i remembered it was a finger puppet toy that would appear at the foot of my bed and slowly inch closer to me.
a crowd of people would be around it and they would all go "oh no it's ______ "(cant remember the name) and run, as this thing would keep inching closer towards me until i snapped out of it or whatever.
actually looked kinda of like this
i get it very rarely now though.BRUINS HOCKEY

This.
Try wiggling your toes/fingers (as hard as you can!) when its happening and you will snap out of it in a few seconds.
Extremely scary, got used to it. Happened only when i was sleeping on my back and was sleep deprived. Those feels....horror.
Just don't open your eyes and try wiggling toes as mentioned above. Chit is nasty as hell

Had a lucid dream once.. Where i woke up several times like it was some inception type ****. Where i might have been sleep paralysed but not sure.
Basically i read about it before but never really tried to lucid dream. I take a nap in afternoon after an all-nighter, I wake up in a hospital bed, couldn't see much. Doctors are telling me i'm going to die soon/have an incurable disease. I think to myself.. Is this real life? This can't be real life. I refuse to accept this reality, I remember this lucid dreaming trick i learned to see if you are sleeping. And instinctually look at my hands to see if i'm dreaming. I didn't want to believe it. I realize i'm dreaming at that point.
I Woke up 2 more times after that.. The second time i couldn't move. But i quickly figured out i was dreaming again and since i've read about sleep paralysis i just kept calm and focused on my breathing. Was one of the coolest things i've experienced.

Haven't had that happen in years thankfully. It happened to me a few good times though between age 14-20.
First time it happened I woke up and could see these vivid glowing red eyes and shadowy figures standing around my bed staring at me. I remember being in a state of shock and trying to scream but not being able to make any noise. For the longest time until I learned about sleep paralysis I thought that experience was some sort of alien abduction or something. Slept with a light on for a couple months after that. Still easily one of the scariest moments of my life.
Next time a few years later I woke up and there was this little girl in a dirty dress with matted up hair standing at the foot of my bed staring at me but she had no eyes. There were just black sockets where her eyes should've been. Again shat bricks but not as the first time it happened, thought it was a ghost or something which didn't seem as scary as alien abduction.
The last bad one I had I woke up and there was this haggard little imp looking demon sitting on my left thigh and looking away. It slowly turned its head and stared me in the face and screeched this horrid high pitched chatter noise and then faded away.
Can't say I miss having sleep paralysis episodes, hopefully it never happens to me again.

sleep paralysis crew checking in
happened only once, and the sensation I felt was of a female presence behind me, near my head. Could not see or hear her, only feel her, and somehow I knew she was going to do me harm ,,like suffocate me or something. Woke up from the nightmare with that feeling still there and not able to move my body at all, totally paralyzed, I tried to scream but what came out was some weird guttural noise that was practically silent.
luckily I used to listen to Art Bell overnights , so about after about 20 seconds of sheer terror I realized what the fuk was going on and relaxed. The feeling of something behind me eventually went away,, control to my limbs returned, etc.

When I was younger I was really into lucid dreaming, training dream-recall and teaching myself how to control dreams etc. Unfortunately sleep paralysis can often come along with this. First time it happened to me I was 100% sure I was being abducted by aliens. I remember being flat on a metal table (I could feel the coldness of the metal on my body) as I slowly moved up towards a purple light. But it was a flashing purple light, so i'd see for 1 second and then have a second of darkness. I just kept thinking sht... I better not remember this when they're done with me
This kept happening to me until one time I realised I had already read what sleep paralysis was, at which point all the hallucinations faded and I was just laying in bed unable to move. It's a really strange feeling but I actually grew to like it, because it's very easy to get back into a dream that you can control from that state
edit: this has also happened to my mum but she saw the classic shadowy figure on her chest, holding her down. I think different people see different things based on what they believe to be possible. I'm positive that this is behind all the alien abduction stories

Had it several times, one time I got myself out of it then fell straight back into it was ****ing horrid.
Another time I got it when in bed with my GF, I remember just trying to breath really loudly to wake her up and she then woke me up.And the fifth rule and most important, work your but off.

not trolling brah, the worse part was how real she looked. Her hair was all over my face and it looked like hobo hair, filled with crusts of dirt and garbage. Her skin was very pale and dry with bruises and cuts all over. It only lasted a couple seconds but the shock left me disturbed for days. I know it's all inside our minds but i was mind blown at how accurate our imaginations can get. I have lots of interesting experiences regarding dreams and even though some of them are scary i don't regret them one bit, it's interesting to see how creative and powerful our minds really are.

I had them a lot last year. I usually prepare to have a lucid dream and sometimes I get sleep paralysis the next morning. Anyway, the worst one was when I woke up at 7 in the morning for a few minutes and talked with my roommate who was leaving for work. He left, i went back to sleep. I think few minutes passed and it phucking happened, as I was sitting there I heared some loud noise. Then I realized it's the door and the one kicking the door is my roomate and he starts yelling in a demonic voice and kicking the door louder and louder telling me to open it. And I'm sitting there freaking the phuck out trying to move my feet so I can wake up before something happens. I usually know what's going on and that those things can't be real life but I felt like it could be a chance that someone is at the door at that time.
