Hello!
I got very interested in LD few weeks ago and started doing WBTB method. This method did not work out for me very well, although i saw some very vidid regular dreams. I found it too difficult to fall asleep again. I thought that lucid dreaming is not for me and i did not try anymore.
But few night ago i realized i'm dreaming, got too excited and woke up. Last night i woke up in sleep paralysis and it seemed like i couldn't breath at all. My eyes were closed and i couldn't move a muscle. I started to panic and few moments later i woke up. I was very sleepy and i fall asleep right after waking up, then i was in sleep paralysis again and it was like the previous one. I woke up again, but then i got out of bed and stayed up a little and after that it was normal.
Today i was taking a nap and i woke up in sleep paralysis again. This time my eyes were open and i saw somekind of blue light in my room. I think i saw a scary girl standing next to my bed but i wasn't scared. Instead i tried to concentrate on my breathing and i realized that i can breath, heavily but atleast can, so it wasn't that scary anymore. I tried to be in sleep paralysis because people have told that you can somehow get to lucid dream by sleep paralysis, but i woke up.
My question is, how can i use sleep paralysis to get lucid and why am i having so many sleep paralysis episodes?
Thank you.
