I get that a lot when I sleep from exhaustion, but usually I just stay still and ignore my surroundings lol trying to wiggle my way out of it
@wakanda4eva lack of sleep and a terrible sleep schedule can cause it and that’s actually one way recommended to get out of it and staying calm as most people panic.

@Stark yeahhh fuk dat shiet lol my sleep schedule is whack, probably cos I don have any specific time to wake up so I can sleep whenever I want, it's a blessing and a curse 🙈

Not as far as I know, but I do thrash around a lot and scream and cry. And I've no idea why. PTSD maybe. For the first time since I moved away from my parents home, I am completely safe and happy. Yet, [i]now [/i] the nightmares start.
Yes. It was very unpleasant the first time since I didn't know what was happening. The next couple of times, I quickly recognized what was happening and took it a little better but it still wasn't too pleasant.

it happened to me a lot when I was in college (stress can cause sleep paralysis); it is really scary, like being trapped in your own body.

@RemovedUsername786576 so far all good. I'm making some connections even if small but it feels good to not feel do blatantly judged. Thank you for asking. :-)
How are you?

Thankfully not. I've heard that it's terrible
Yeah im use to it.
@DarlingSelah how regularly do you experience it?
@Stark hm. Its hard to say. It happens when my sleep is disturbed by by insomnia, medicine, pms, stress. In my adult life id say over 100 times. The last time was about a month ago.
twice - i didn't like it.

@Stark it's a real one when I'm conscious

@Stark I remember one time I wasn't able to speak and while trying hard to speak, I finally made a weird sound that I think my brother thought I'm possessed by a demon! 😅 Was very awkward!
@SW-User Yeah, I’m usually never able to speak and weird sounds just come out when I try to. 😂

I think so. It was annoying as hell at least. 😑

The last time was a couple of months ago.
No, but I heard it's frightening.
@submissivelittlewoman I think in the moment it is but once you’re up you’re kind of just like “um okay?”
