so these feelings typically happen multiple times, with varying intensity? i think i'm confusing something else for sleep paralysis. when i try to WILD, i usually dip out of consciousness for a split second, after which i can't tell how my body is oriented (i'm usually in a position with one hand on top of the other, and i can't tell which is on top or if they're touching, for example), and i feel like there's a crust around my body that makes it hard to move. is that not sleep paralysis?
