Short Lucid Dreaming / sleep Paralysis Before Falling Asleep Posted: 09-26-07 22:23pm
I've been getting short episodes sometimes
where I feel paralyzed before falling
asleep.
Sometimes i'll have a short period of
lucid dreaming, followed by a quick shock
or feeling i'm falling down where i'll
wake up.
Or, i'll just feel paralyzed for a while
and then have weird hallucinations, then
feel like i'm falling again then wake up.
Sometimes the lucid dreaming is fun, i'll
know something is wrong because I feel
like i'm hallucinating but i'll just go
along with it and push myself to enjoy it.
Sometimes its really scary though, like it
feels so real that i'll actually get
scared.
Wow, this is weird stuff! Could it be
because of bad sleeping habits?

I get the same thing as you do. Its freaky
coz u know whats happening yet u have no
control. It can be coz of bad sleeping but
ive read that its due to lots of factors,
bad sleeping habits, increased stress,
stress of work or moving house, when there
are a lot of issues on ur mind, or after a
traumatic experience such as the loss of a
loved one etc

as soon as i realize that i'm dreaming, i
wake up also, I've had
friends who've had sleep paralysis, its
sounds scary as all hell.
