Technically, its the bit beyweeen awake and rem, so you're aware of the situation but are forced to have nightmares.

I explain it like your brain is awake, but the rest of body is sleeping, and it clashes in a way that you experience nightmares while aware of your rl surroundings.

we all got sleep paralysis at least 4 to 5 times every night. if you witness it too often, try progressive muscle relaxation before you go to sleep ..

It's where you are sleeping and you either wake up or come to a semi-conscious state, but you can't move at all. Sometimes, you also can't breathe. It can be quite scary for some people.

Nope, never had or that I remember. I heard it's bad, but is it really that traumatizing? If you have it frequently, shouldn't you be able to see that you're infact in sleep paralysis and take advantage of it? Also, I've heard that sleep paralysis is the doorway to lucid dreaming.

It's pretty traumatic, since your dreams are focused on nightmares. You either see something or hear it, and the helplessness of it makes it hard to sleep again.

You can sometimes control them, but its pretty hard

That sounds similar to the Arabic belief, that it's the devil or a demon sitting on your chest, something along those lines

Lots of people including me may get a similar character forcing them to obey to stay paralised

I'm not a believer of supernatural things so I just see it as my brain being a cunt

That used to be a common explanation in Europe, as well, but times have changed.

How would you know if you are asleep? Maybe you are dreaming that you can't move. I obviously do not understand what it is :P

yes i do, although it hasnt hit me recently. i have had it for years and sometimes it just seems to start happening and goes on every night for days or weeks. i feel like im wide awake and seeing things like people in the room and figures around me, but my eyes are closed. it feels so real tho

Never could sleep well without an aid, its also hard to get into a healthy sleeping habit when you get it. Apparently masturbating helps... ;)
