could one of you please explain to me how you can sleep on your backs every night knowing that pic related could happen to you? sleep paralysis is real and what you see is in it is just as real and vivid if not more vivid then all the other objects in your room you can, in most cases feel what they are doing to you and you can't do anything about it other than lay there.

>could one of you please explain to me how you can sleep on your backs every night knowing that pic related could happen to you?
Because we don't care and don't think about it.
>>25826353
just record yourself sleeping every night and regret it later.
I sleep on my back every night. Sometimes feeling fear is better than feeling nothing at all.
>>25826353
Yeah ok why dont you suck me off when you are done w/ that
>>25826353
oh shit nigger, I used to sleep on my back and feel something warm on top of me, it would pressure everywhere from my feet to my head
fuck I never thought about it
THAT SHIT WAS ON ME EVERY NIGHT
im too strong for one to attack me. it goes for weaker people.
>>25826353
>>25826493
>>25826533
that thing doesnt exist...
>>25826353
If you sleep on your tum, that thing will penetrate you with its vivid cock
I never hallucinated during sleep paralyzesis ,but when I would get it I would hear people screaming and crying like armeggadon was raining down.
>demon breathing on my face
>all I have to do is relax and go back to sleep
>instead I try reaaaly hard to move
>struggle and the demon gets more violent
Every time.
Sometimes I will induce sleep paralysis on myself "for research"... see what happens is if I dont open my eyes I dont get the visual stuff so I hear stuff. I hear people talking to me. This got me wondering who these people are and why they are in my mind trying to scare me,
>>25826353
when i'm in sleep paralysis i'm in a very high place with a lot of wind, i can hear it in my ears and feel it on my body
I suffer alien abduction so sleep paralysis, even the idea of it, doesn't even bother me.
I literally can't sleep in any other position than on my back.
>>25826591
it does. try going to bed early, sleep flat on your back, covers up to your neck.
enjoy your night terror and suffocating feels
I get sleep paralysis sleeping on my side. It's different for everyone.
I have never had any hallucinations of any kind under sleep paralysis. I regularly induce it for lucid dreaming, and the only thing that happens is that my body gets really stiff and I can't quite move it.
>>25826353
>how you can sleep on your backs
It happened to me and I was sleeping face down.
>>25826353
sleep paralysis can also happen if your sleep on your side you dumbass, also
>not even enough willpower to wake up from your own dreams
thats how much of a beta you are, you are literally cucking yourself
>>25826353
it happened to me a lot of time. I just look these entities in their eyes and they usually go away.
Apparently I give enough bad vibe that even something like this is scared of me.
Or probably I just have the willpower to woke up.
>>25826353
Having this kind of experience makes me forget for an instant my life.
>>25826591
OP here sorry i made it sound like it was an actually entity
its actually just a hallucination but its still scary
Because I don't fear them. I don't know if I just have the required willpower/awareness, but every time I've had a paralysis I've been able to recognize I'm having one, usually because something in the dream clashes with reality, and literally force myself awake by "commanding" myself to move. Also I've noticed that I can more or less reliably trigger them by falling asleep with headphones on, so don't do that if you fear them.
>>25826353
Sleep on my back every night since forever and never had sleep paralysis, nothing to be afraid of here
>>25826353
>get sleep paralysis 4 nights a week or so
>used to freak me out constantly
>it's so common now I am used to it
>common theme is a shadowman figure standing at my door
>used to scream and try to wake myself up screaming
>now I just stare at him blankly like
>"Sup? you jus gon' stand there or wat bruh"
not even my nightmares are exciting anymore...
It's the reason I always sleep on my stomach.
Waking up to pic related is one of my worst fears. I've already had my fair share of sleep paralysis. I've heard voices, usually a woman laughing, I've heard scurrying, people talking in a weird language, I've felt something try to go into my asshole, most recently I've finally felt the cliche goblin/hag riding my back.
>>25829943

Had it happen to me, was spooky as shit, couldn't go back to sleep that night, but was fine afterwards. Stop being such a fucking pussy and sleep however's comfortable
>>25826353
I'm pretty sure this shit is just a meme. Almost every time I sleep on my back and I never had sleep paralysis. Let alone hallucinations.
I'm more scared of sleeping on my belly. Because I usually put my arms under the pillow and wake up scared shitless not feeling them. I always think I'm having a stroke.
I've sexualized my fears for so long that I legitimately can no longer fear them. I just get horny
>>25829943
>I've felt something try to go into my asshole
Bruh, I think an incubus is trying to fuck you.
>>25826353
Because sleeping on your back is objectively the healthiest and best body posture for sleeping
>>25830095
Sleep paralysis is very real but not that big of a deal tbhwyf. The first time it happened to me it was scary as fuck, but subsequent times I knew what was going on and just went to sleep. In fact, I intentionally make it come on sometimes so I can lucid dream.
It only happens occasionally on its own, though.
Anyone else get this:
I will be laying in bed drifting off to sleep. I am in that half waking, half sleeping state and I am just about to enter true sleep. Then, all of a sudden I hear a very loud noise, it hurts my ears. Most often it is a train's horn blaring very loud. I get a mental picture of a train chugging along in the dark and I am looking at it head on, with its bright headlight shining at me. This very loud sound is enough to wake me up instantly and makes my heart beat fast.
>>25830492
Maybe you should stop living next to the train tracks.
>>25830128
me too, at least for some fears
>tfw fantasizing about the monster under the bed
>>25830296
this desu baka at you OP
>>25826353
Because I don't hallucinate when I get sleep paralysis.
>>25826726
That's the fiery winds of hell, mhang.
>>25826693
what did they say to you?
this is not nignoggery and an original comment
>>25826353
It just means youre reaching REM state. Your body is falling asleep, but your mind isnt. Thus, you easily freak out because you start fearing the sensation. Education frees you. Knowledge is power.
I have always wanted to reach that point. >>25826726
You anon, have made it pretty far in this. Feeling air in this state means you can start telling yourself how you would want to see your dream as. Thus you will be a step closer to lucid dreaming.

I've been spending too much time at /d/
>>25826353
The first time it happened to me I knew what it was so I just kind of relaxed and went with it. It was kind of cool.
It used to be very common when I was a kid
Common as a teen in high school
Now it only happens if I don't lucid dream basically
HOWEVER
The thing that I used to see in my nightmares as a kid started showing up in my room and then started showing up in real life and it turns out I have schizophrenia
Mr spook is a bad man:(
Holyshit i didn't know this is actually a thing,
I looked up, thats so fucking creepy, specially the images on google.
>>25826353
I sleep with a blanket over my head, so i wouldn't be able to see it.
And i have very vivid nightmares nearly every night, so I'm pretty used to things like that by now, that being said, i did have sleep paralysis once where i saw a midget clown standing in my hallway, and It's a totally different level of fear, but once i came out of it i was fine, i also had a nightmare that i was laying in bed, i couldn't move, and something was sitting on top of me(but there's a blanket over my head so i can't see) and i would consider it a fairly mild nightmare desu
Pretty spooky desu
thank goodness I sleep on my belly like a beached whale

What happens when you get a boner?
There's a line on my dick because it bends in half when i sleep on my stomach.
Fuck that.
>>25826652
Mine is similar to this.
I heard this really evil low chuckle coming from like some cave inside of me.
The most visual I got was seeing a really bright car light on my desk.
My wellbutrin makes it a thousand times worse tho.
I can't even asleep in a chair without getting it.
Can only sleep on stomach
>>25832977
Sleep paralysis is that weird state where your mind and eyes are awake, but the rest of your body is asleep.
I couldn't even tell if I had a boner.
And I'm far too focused on trying not to get killed
>>25826353
>The sleep paralysis meme
Go back to reddit and 9gag you fucking piece of shit, everyone already knows about sleep paralysis it's no reason to go around saying you have it in a failed attempt to be edgy. I'm sick of fucking tards like you feeling the need to say it in public like you have nothing else interesting going for you
Just kill yourself you fucking pretentious cuck. Go to reddit and get upboated
Monsters/Demons/Spirits cannot possibly exist. It's all occult nonsense. You have nothing to fear.
>>25833731
But just sleeping on your stomach in general, you get a boner in the middle of the night, you're laying on your dick and it bends in half
>>25833784
I don't understand this post
There's nothing edgy about sleep paralysis, a lot of people have it. It's pretty normie tbqh.
>>25833917
Oh, misread your post.
Just lay your dick straight up, pointing to your belly button
>>25826353

>>25826353
i get this shit like twice a month it's not even that bad
>>25832547
That's actually pretty funny desu senpai, but I do feel sorry for you
I experience it frequently. Sometimes I'll experience it multiple times when I try to sleep. Each night it happens I must breath faster to wake my body up, but each night it is stronger, and each breath weaker.
My eyes are always closed when it happens. I see nothing, but feel my body falling at an extreme speed, in no specific direction.
One day, I will not be able to wake myself up. I wonder what will happen to me then.
>>25830492
I get this, except usually with no sound. I just get that sudden falling feeling. It really sucks especially when I'm trying to sleep and just cant.
>Constant nightmares
>all end up with me being killed in nasty ways
>dont want to sleep anymore.
>when i wake up, i even feel the wounded and missing limbs, despite everything being normal.
>tfw you cannot sleep unless you are on your side
>tfw you want to have sleep paralysis
>tfw sleep paralysis is the easiest way to lucid dream, and you cannot do it
You faggots need to harness your powers. I tried to sleep on my back, but something compels me not to... OH SHIT DON'T DO I-
I sleep on my back everyday and never had sleep paralysis. So you are saying people see some shit on sleep paralysis?
>>25834772

I get it on occasion. I don't really hallucinate, just feel a bit panicked about something bad happening while I'm stuck or not being able to be unstuck. Sometimes I'll feel a presence or something but I've never had the crazy witch on chest hallucination thing. It actually sounds neat. I mean it isn't real at all.
>TFW hag riding my chest is only female attention I've gotten in 4 years
>>25826353
I actually want to sleep on my back since I hear it's healthier for your spine, but I always think about people that have died throwing up like that and choking to death.
I'll stick to my sides.
>>25826353
I used to get night terrors a lot bur the more you have them its not as scary are theyre just annoying

>>25835258
I've been hugging a pillow for years. Throughout middle school (jesus fuck too long ago) I would sleep on my side/arm and cut of my blood flow. Almost every morning for years I'd wake up and my arm would be numb. My legs started fucking up too, so for a year or so I slept with a pillow between my legs. I was never over 190lbs.
Idk, it hasn't happened to me in my 23 years of life. It's not like it'll just randomly start
>>25835277
Obligatory.
Will you please be my gf?
>>25826353
I can't manage to fall asleep staying on my back, the urge to change position gets me every time, and whenever I tried to fight it, I could stay awake constantly. I'd have to be REALLY tired to fall asleep on my back, like "haven't slept in 20+ hours" tired.
>>25835334
>yfw it's a man
>>25830974
I've forgotten everything. I do remember one being an old man and another a British guy. Both angry and hostile. I'd remember both talking in a way I would never which makes me wonder if people live in my head.
If I sleep on the side, my heart flutters.
If I sleep on my stomach, I feel sick.
On by back, the cats use me as a bed. There is no winning, but I choose my back.

I've experienced sleep paralysis three times already, and I've had the voices, weird language, etc. I always see and hear dogs barking and biting me... I could even feel it. It's even extremely difficult to breathe, and I even thought I was going to die once, haha.
It's a fucking dream you pussies.
>>25835895
>not being afraid of the one place where your worst fears can come to life and seem completely real
>>25832230
It can be really cool.
Now in my adult life whenever it happens and some monsters is attempting to scare me I role with it, I try to not wake myself up so I can see just what it will do.
Though the second to last time I tried talking to the entity (it was a shadow that crept on the ground) . I never tried talking to them before.
I just sort of ask it something like "so what do you want to tell me, tell me something interesting".
Sure enough it whispered. it seemed a bit surprised I was trying to talk to it. Then it was doing this sort of angry hushed whisper. Like you are in a library and someone is pissed.
No real words that I could understand, it was mostly just 'feeling' it was giving vibes. I was sleeping next to my girlfriend at the time and it was extremely maliscious to me, but when I showed no fear it was whispering about her, that it wanted to do maliscious things or that I should.
Like it was trying to convince me to allow it to harm her or that I should.
The I got annoyed with it, basically I 'told' it that now I have to wake up because I'm not getting her involved, it would have been ok to talk to me.
The last one I saw though was a quite tall woman, white dress like night gown or something, dark scragally hair covering her face. emaciated, long disproportionate arms ending in extremely long bloody claws.
She just stood near my bed, maybe making a low growl.
So I thought it would be interesting to provoke her. I basically thought to her (since I can't speak) "well since you're so interested in being here and it's early morning why don't you come over here and put those hands to good use"
She twitched and tensed and growled louder. That really got her pissed. Her fault for being vaguely feminine and coming around when I had morning wood.
When it happens literally just ignore it and go back to sleep you idiots, I have sleep paralysis almost every night and it doesn't bother me
How come you lads get to see all the occult and I don't... I only hear whispers in an unknown language and the sensation of falling. And maybe episodes of horror films that scared me when I was a child. I'd so much rather see some Necronomicon tier stuff than gay ass alien tentacles. I have to read more Lovecraft. He was enlightened.
>>25830492
Exploding head syndrome.
Not trolling, look it up.
I only got it while sleeping on my side though, I used to get it so much I got used to it.
>>25826353
If you learn control in dreams through lucid dreaming, the same hypnagogic state which is responsible for the Hag's Hands can be used for truly spectacular, psychedelic effects. For example, when I wake suddenly in a hypnagogic state, I am instantly aware of it. I'm able to open my eyes and see the waking world, then close my eyes and see my room transformed by dream, often with dream characters sitting on my bed or in a chair nearby watching me.
On one recent occasion, I saw a person's hand lying beside my pillow. I followed the hand with my eyes and saw a young girl dressed in all white standing at the head of my bed, staring at me in silence. We stared silently at each other for a little while, she with no expression on her face, then she grabbed my sheet, crouched down, and drew the sheet over her head at the head of my bed.
When I opened my eyes to see the waking version of my room -- the sheets were still in exactly the same place. I got a rush of adrenaline and jumped up, pulling away the sheets, and of course there's was no one there. But trippy experiences like that can be fun-scary if you know they're hypnagogic fugues.
I fall asleep on my back every night, used to be able to fall asleep on my sides but now I can't for some reason.
Sleep paralysis hits me like once a month if that. Only lasts for 5-15 seconds but holy fuck are those 5-15 seconds scary.
I toss and turn in my sleep I think so it's whatever
SP is fucking dope and extremely helpful for lucid dreaming. It's actually pretty much a guaranteed lucid dream if you don't freak out like a little bitch.
Train yourself to lucid dream and you'll be wanting sleep paralysis to happen.
