Wow, that woould be scary if your spirit/soul left your body for the night, but that is just some gibberish. Don't listen to that. I think you have sleep paralysis. When you wake up in the morning, middle of the night etc. You might experince this. It can be frightning since you can't move at all or maybe barely but it should last couple minutes. An ylonger than that and its a problem. May be something is wrong with your back or maybe you have narcolepsy, I don't know. Go back to the doctor, a different doctor, and ask about sleep paralysis. Hope this help. :)

I have the weirdest dreams of all- like an assault course in my bedroom, fighting a guy on a spider web, etc!!

But i've heard of this; also another case where someone woke up with a jolt from a terrible dream. Trying to regain some comfort, they went to their parents bedroom to see if they were asleep. And as they entered the door they saw on their father's side of the bed a ghostly image of the dad. Frightened, they screamed and the still image suddenly dissapeared and seconds later her dad woke with a jolt and sat up to face her.

Apparently it's when you sleep your whole body relaxes and your soul tends to lift and leave your body. It's not dangerous; your not dying, it's just when your in a deep sleep. Yet when your soul re-enters, it makes you jolt when you awake, some accounts of dreaming that you are falling, and then waking before you hit the fall, or even feeling like you have falling out of bed and when you awake your still stationary in bed.

I do believe this, however i'm sure you guys to have your own opnions. They are weird, perhps though something is bothering you so much, it still stays in your mind when you sleep. Like our dreams our a projector!!

I get those paralized dreams even if I am asleep for 5 minutes and it really scares me I went to that web site dreammoods.Com and I looked up paralization dreams and it did not show anything of this nature. But I did get good info on dreams that I have had a few times before and also sad and reacuring dreams and the info was really helpfull.

So thanks to the lady for that website and it helped so much

i can never thank you enough

Sleep paralysis (aka "old hag") usually occurs between the state of sleep and walking up. Do you get a heavy weight pressing down on your chest? If so do you feel as though you can not breathe?

There are two (major) views on this - I googled it and read alot of research, about an hours worth so im just giving you a quick over view -

it is thought that these experiences are most likely cause by the body and the brain being out of 'sync' when alseep. Normally during rem (rem is also necessary to supply the cornea with oxygen. Delta
sleep, associated with large, slow brain waves, is what most people call the deepest kind of sleep, when you are hardest to awaken. It is necessary for the brain/body to rest and heal.) sleep, the body is paralyzed - if it wasnt then you would be acting out your dreams - because you are paralyzed during this cycle of sleep your brain much 'flip a switch' to bring you out of this state. Now all the pages I read stated that the 'scientific' reason for this is because your brain hasnt yet flipped the switch. Then they all went into the percents, ever 2 people out of 10 suffer from this condition.....Kinda weird huh?

Hypnopompic paralysis what its called :d and is often associated with narcalespy (sp).

Some people say that when they wake up there is another presence in the room, an 'evil being' . This is another belief, that the sleep paralysis has something to do with the evil spirit that is often there, however, the scientists have proven that during sleep paralysis a person tends to hallucinate. :d

hope this helps you

Thats if you believe that souls can do that. However, there are scientific reasons behind all of this.

Not that im saying souls cant leave the body, im all for the spiritual side of things. I did my senior term paper on poltergeists :d

I experienced this myself a couple times, I was aware that I was dreaming(actually it was a nightmare) but I couldn't open my eyes or move my body even though I was striving for it.
I believe in souls and stuff like that, don't fear it, fear will only make it happen more often I think, at least that's what happens to me.
