Waking up paralysed would be a great excuse to be late for work.

Now that's being lazy.
Besides this anyway, OP is on dangerous ground now you exposed him. xD

Sleep paralysis is real...

That is why it has a name, and a definition, and medical explanation.

All it is, is you waking up before the rest of your body does. Often only lasts for a few seconds. Usually lucid dreamers or people with nightmares/night terrors are the most likely to experience it.

Now if you wake up literally paralyzed for the rest of your life... Then that is likely something completely different.

Yeah it would. You just only have to get past all the demons coming out of nowhere is all. That and not moving.

Yes sleep paralysis is real. It’s also something that happens to you during REM sleep so being paralyzed during sleep is normal. Sleep paralysis is when that paralysis happens at the wrong time

Nah, its real & pretty horrific. Whenever I have it, I pretty much can't sleep rest of the night.

It is not horrific, it is a gift.
Only people with extreme control, can pull it off and it showcase that you have a balanced mind and can trancent into the void of layer between sleep and awake..

I envy you for this magnificent feat and applaud you.

Real.

It's not like Fibromyalgia or Morgellons.

Had it once years ago, lasted about 15-20 seconds, it was pretty terrifying

I feel like it should happen to you once, see how you feel about it then

I had enough weird stuff happen when I sleep. I think it is all stupid and I hate it.

the last time it happened, i explored it out for as long as i could before falling a sleep (usually no more than 5-10 minutes at most), feeling out the various sensations, the hard breathing and general noises in the area.

It was a fascinating experience wondering what that creak was on the floor boards and the first thought going through your mind, a murderer!

This one gets it.. its a special journey, that should be experienced and it will show you a lot of facinating things.. if you are not some nervous person or scared of death and what not, then this experience can lead to very enjoyable things and maybe even put you more in touch with yourself..

Don´t fear what you don´t understand, embrace it and learn from it instead.

It's real, it often happens after a few minutes of falling asleep. You don't fully wake up or you think you did. If often comes with alucinations.

It always happens to me that I always see shadow people, one time i saw a Shadow person so tall they had to crouch a little bit to enter my room.

Once they tried to choke me and last time i could hear and feel something crawling to my bed


All of this is just your mind of course but ♥♥♥♥ is scary

Lucid dreams be are fun to explore, yeah (done it two or three times actually), but having a dark figure pressing down on your chest and not being able to breathe.. isn't the best

I relished it.. it was a good experience and if you are calm, the feeling of "loss of breathe" evolves into control, slowing down time, feeling everything around you and inside yourself.. the ultimate control... 20 secounds, can feel like 2 hours.

do not confuse people who exploit the condition for their own benefit, with people who truly suffer from the condition.

you are overgeneralising, and it is dangerous for others and yourself.
