i don’t usually do this kind of stuff but honestly im a lil freaked out rn. so i stayed up until 4:50 am having a nice cry about banana fish lol and then i realized i should try to sleep since tomorrow’s a weekday. so then im trying to fall asleep and im half awake- half asleep now. and then i hear a ringing in my ears and it kept getting louder and i saw flashes and overall had this vibe that i wasn’t safe. when i tried to wake up i physically could not get up, my body was stuck it wouldn’t let me move, i couldn’t even open my eyes. the ringing kept getting louder and then finally i woke up. this happened to me once already but last time i heard heartbeating and screaming. i told my friend about it last time and they said i prob have sleep paralysis but i didn’t think of it much bc i thought it wouldn’t happen again. now it’s 5:50 am and im too scared to go to sleep so i guess i’ll just wait for morning but im gonna be rlly tired :/ pls someone talk im too freaked out rn
Yeah that's sleep paralysis, I've gone through that once, but that time I was living alone and an old hag was on top of me, laughing and tried to choke me and someone screamed from outside my room, it was so scary 1 reply
Sleep paralysis is a scary thing to experience. I hope it does not happen to you again. You did ask for this but..
Sleep paralysis can be caused by having horrible sleeping habits or mental stressors. Avoid caffeine before sleeping and try to wind down at the same time ever night. If you are sleep deprived that increases the chance of it occurring...... 1 reply
