Thread: Sleep Paralysis

Hey everyone. Recently I've been experiencing sleep paralysis on a frequent basis. I would say I maybe experience 4 times a week at the moment and it's usually if I have a nap or on a morning when I drift in and out of sleep.

In the past I rarely experienced it. I probably maybe got it a few times in a year but it seems to be all the time now to the point where I sometimes fear going to sleep. Also it used to only last maybe 10 seconds but now it seems to be around 1 minute-3 minutes and I automatically go into panic.I don't tend to experience any illusions or anything strange although a few times I will try and move my hands and I will see a ghostly hand where I think I have moved my real hand to. Sometimes I see a few new objects in my room for example I once looked at my Albert Wesker figure and next to him was a much smaller action figure facing the wall which vanished once I came out the paralysis.

I think my paralysis has increased since I started training to become lucid but I rarely try to do WILDS. Does anyone else experience sleep paralysis on a regular basis and how do you cope with it?
