was dream sleep paralysis ? Posted: 12-30-07 22:58pm
well i just found this site and athough
I'm sure I've figured it out I still wanna
see what you guys think of this...
about a year ago my boyfriend and I went
to the bahama's. we had a confrontation
with one of the men who workd at the
hotel, and my boyfriend got in a little
arguement with him but it was resolved and
we went to our room to sleep.
well, I woke up to the sound of him making
a weird sound with his mouth and when I
looked down on him his eyes were open, his
mouth was open making that sound and he
was staring up at the ceiling in a trance
or something like that. and I started
shaking him and trying to get him out of
it.
he came out of it and he freaked out. he
said that in his dream he was lookin up
like how I saw him, but in his dream he
saw the guy we got in a arguement with
standing over the bed looking down on us.
and in his dream he was trying to scream
so I would wake up and wake him up. but in
his dream nothing would come out.
is this sleep paralysis (sp?) or do I have
something to worry about. cuz to be honest
whenever I think about this incident, I
get scared because I always thought it was
maybe something serious like a weird
seizure or something, but now that I have
realized what s.p. is, i'm wondering does
this sound like it? it was so weird!
thanks for any input.

Often sleep paralysis comes with hallucinations Posted: 01-28-08 00:27am
Often sleep paralysis comes with
hypnagogic hallucinations (vivid dreams
while waking up).
When I had sleep paralysis, I often saw
someone I have been thinking about. It is
pretty scary at first, but really actually
"harmless", just scary mainly cause you
don't know what it going on. The first
time I was sure I had been paralyzed.
Has he had it only the one time? If so, no
worries it actually happens to a lot
people once or twice in their lifetime.
Or... does it happen often? Then I could
be part of a larger problem. Is he
excessively sleepy in the daytime? That
could indicate Narcolepsy (what I have).
He should go see a doctor and get some
help.
