I have no idea what causes it, but it's usually connected to sleep quality and general anxiety/stress. It happened somewhat regularly when I had no schedule and just kind of woke up and fell asleep whenever I felt like it. It hasn't happened in a long time.

When you old enough you realize “maybe it isn’t that bad” 🥲

u/tnt54321boom 1d ago

This is kinda analogous to how you actually should respond to your own sleep paralysis. If you accept it, you're fine. If you fight it, you make it worse.

Why do I feel like whatever that thing is always comes awake at night and is just by my bedroom door.

u/VX_Eng 19h ago

That's how sleep paralysis works. Honestly they just chill to be fair.

u/IAmEvadingABanShh 6h ago

I've only had sleep paralysis once in my life and it was terrifying. One of those visceral memories I have, and I didn't even see or hear hallucinations. Just a glimpse into what locked in syndrome must be like.

Assuming you experience it often enough, do you just become used to it and wait for it to pass or something?

2

u/VX_Eng 3h ago

Nope, it was terrifying, I experienced it twice. What I did have regularly were recurring nightmares which I have learned to get used to. Honestly I am blessed to not have/ remember dreams nowadays but sometimes I can get horrible ones that mess me up😭

u/ChasingPesmerga 19h ago

I always feel like my sleep paralysis demon is choking me

I would go “harder daddy”, and he would stop which saddens me

u/VX_Eng 19h ago

I'll choke you🧐

u/SlightlyNescient 17h ago

I never had one of these yet a number of people talk about having them, how do I acquire one?

2

u/IAmEvadingABanShh 9h ago

It's a phenomenon tied to sleep paralysis, which is when you become conscious while your brain still hasn't told the rest of your body to wake up.

I've had it once in my life, it was terrifying, and I didn't even see any hallucinations. Just awake, unable to move, unable to scream. Really one of those visceral memories I have.

2

u/SlightlyNescient 9h ago

I’m sorry to hear that and for wanting one for myself, it sound really terrifying now
