The other option other than troll is to just ignore. Ignore but don't be scared. I find ignoring makes them go away faster, however there are evil spirits where I encountered that just feeds on my breathing.

My encounters escalated over the years and now it's pretty physical. I know through my explanation, it sounds like just another sleep paralysis or whatever. But just imagine a regular sleep paralysis, with the feeling of bugs and worms and shit crawling on your body. You literally cannot go to sleep because you're so irritated.

For some people, they can go from wakefulness to deep sleep and this I consider a gift. But for me, it's wakefulness, to half paralyzed, to lucid dreaming every single night. During the half paralyzed stage, anything can happen. It's like if an evil spirit intercepts me at this point, I get tormented with the feeling of a thousand ants crawling on me. If something neutral, I get into a vivid dream where it'll take my flying in pitch dark. If something good, which happened very rarely (mostly when I'm stressed), it's very tranquil and relaxing, and every time it speaks to me with advice and decisions I should make about my problems. Deep sleep, or REM sleep as they say, comes maybe once a week for me.

Symptoms of Sleep Paralysis

Everything explained on that website, I've been through it. The shocking part for me is that, I actually recorded the physical contact of these "so called" hallucinations, which is why I no longer believe it is just my imagination.

You need help

like, if i was a tentacle demon trying to mess with you and with the ability to physically affect you then i'd just pull that shit off? not questioning your story or anything - I'm genuinely interested in your posts.

I am pretty sure everybody goes through these kinda things to an extent, it's just that they're not conscious enough to notice it. People who tells stories about sleep invasions are usually people who practice lucid dreaming and out of body experience, because to achieve these, you must learn to stay conscious while your body falls asleep, which I suspect, puts you in the spirit world.

I don't know if you've ever heard people say that, when you dream, your soul leaves your body and wanders off. This, I believe is true.

I can't give a full detail of what they look like but I'm pretty sure they don't have hands. And every time, I tuck myself in tight, literally suffocating inside my blanket. It's terrifying to be half paralyzed, not knowing if you're actually fully conscious or not, and feeling a giant insect crawling outside.

Waking up for a moment and going back to sleep doesn't help at all. It's like its waiting at the threshold between consciousness and deep sleep. Only way to make it go away is hiding under my blanket for several minutes or just waking up for like half an hour.

Consciousness can be confusing and hard to understand. It's easy to take confusing messages as "reality" especially if you're having issues with sleep.

I would recommend getting help if you really are thinking along these lines. Because it's only going to get worse probably.

those raindrop sounds you hear isn't enough to justify evil spirits.

the probability of it coinciding with something, to create that effect... is higher than the existence of evil spirits.

i know i sound like an ass skeptical scientist.

but hallucinations are very strong. all you have is your perception. hallucinations alter those perceptions. so they are real.

i've checked physical things many times. and it still blows my mind that i consciously know it doesnt exist or it's not really like that.

if you were so certain that it's "real"... why wouldn't u try to duplicate the recording or video tapes or whatever. if i thought it was real, i would be totally trying to capture it.

lol post the video... just the audio.

yeah this happens to me too.

when i experience sleep paralysis... it's usually when i have nothing to wake up for, so i keep hitting snooze for hours and then eventually the alarm shuts off. and then sleep paralysis keeps happening. repeatedly.

ill get sleep paralysis over and over again. like every time i snap out of it, i just need to lay there and wait a few moments, and it'll start happening again.

eventually it goes away or like you say, i have to get up for a while.

i usually play around with it as much as i can while it happens. try to get different outcomes or any new experience or info i can use.

i've been attached to sleep lab equipment. i learnt something during my session. it was very uncomfortable. and i couldn't fall asleep all night. i lay there all night. and then i fell asleep a LITTLE bit near the end. i only know this because i remember i had a dream.

the results said i was asleep in light sleep the whole time. and deep sleep at the end.

how could i be in light sleep the whole time when i was conscious? awake?

turns out, light sleep is so light, that you often think you're awake. during this time, you're super prone to hallucinations.

the hallucination can even be simply that you're awake. but to outsiders youre not awake LOL.

but it doesn't matter.

like i said, evil spirit or troll in your mind... it's the same thing.

it is real when it happens. and it feels as real as it gets. and if you mentally let it get to you, it'll destroy your mental health.

so it's the same shit. evil spirits or self trolling.

i just know, to combat it, it's the same method. no fear. and when u wake up the next day, just carry on your day as usual.

i always sleep on my side, the times i get lucid dreams or sleep paralysis is when i sleep on my back or when i'm sick and took tylenol night time lol. whenever i get lucid dreams or sleep paralysis it feels long but actually lasts about 30min and i wake up feeling like i've slept for hours and have tons of energy again, like i took a power nap but better.

Coincidence is possible if all chains of event doesn't link up. It's just so strange that I get an encounter, put a phone recording in an opening, and all goes silent. Then out of nowhere, for the next 10 - 15 seconds, all you hear is rain drops on the phone, then instantly stops. Nothing else in the environment changes, not my movement, not my blanket, nothing. During the recording I could also feel my phone's vibration from the contact.

Here is the video... turn up your speakers. The intensity starts at 20 sec and 50 sec. The twitching is when I feel it touching me.

Spoiler!

Yeah, the light sleep part is what really confuses the shit out of me. There were times when I get on my bed to go to sleep, and instantly, gust of winds starts blowing, like I'm flying through the air. Suddenly I feel people started operating on my body, like I'm being repaired. But all of this is happening when I'm awake. I open my eyes and I see my ceiling, continue to feel the operation. When it's over, I sit up and be like, "wtf just happened?"

Don't get me wrong, I don't let it get to me mentally, although there was a year where I actually thought I could get some useful message out of these "experiences", like winning the lottery lol.

I used to feel shit start crawling from the foot of my bed, I turn to my side and it helped. But now it's like these freaking thing gets smarter and smarter. It knows what you fear and it'll use it against you to make you turn around (I don't wanna say what made me turned around :P).

When I get something that isn't terrifying, I get that boost of energy like you said. I would go to sleep, get a sleep paralysis experience for what it feels like 30 - 45 min, and when it's over, I look at the clock, it's only been 15 - 20 min and I'm refreshed as fuck. I wake up as if I can feel every millisecond of the waking process because it's going from super light sleep to wakefulness.

Majority of these experience are so real, it's really hard to say it's just hallucinations. If none of these ever follow by a random dream, I would be made 100% to believe they're real.

Nothing is happening to you, you are just confused because your brain acts all weird in between sleep and awake. You should see a sleep specialist.

It's been happening for as long as I can remember... 7 years now? I think I'm due an appointment with one.

Right on man, let us know how it goes :thumbs:

i don't want to dispel what you're experiencing but like others have said your brain is probably just playing tricks on you. your brain is trying to identify your surroundings in a tired state so it's making misinterpretations. to me the raindrops sounds like a zipper or a velcro. also are you under a lot of stress? i have a friend that went through a similar experience during a stressful time in his life. he's one of those guys that doesn't show it on the outside but i could tell little things were eating him up inside. stress if you don't address it will always manifest either physically in forms of aches and pains or mentally eg. mentally tired everytime. but yea def see someone about it or discuss it with close family and friends. get your life back.

Bump..........

I had this really weird dream. I thought I'd share it. However, by the time I finished searching for this thread and reading through all the posts (some interesting ones), I had forgotten most of my dream/nightmare. Anyway..................

I had a black mexican kingsnake for a few years, during that time, i had the most horror / wack dreams of my life. Happened consistently every x weeks or months.

Me and two buddies went to maui like 4 years ago, we rock paper scissored for who gets the main room, i got the main room.
My two buddies got the two couches in the living room.
Fast forward a few days in, its 3am, and they are both awoken by me nearly yelling, according to them, as if i was getting chopped up.
Both of them get up, in panic, and slowly make their way over to my room, im still asleep.
Sure enough its just me sleeping. One of them wake me up, then i proceed to tell them i was being eaten alive by a 20ft snake.
We all go back to bed, i wake up, and on my door, they have used some string, with beer cans going across the door. This way it would be an alarm incase i had any more awesome dreams.

Good times, they said, that was one of the most terrified moments of their life

not sure how i missed this thread back in the day, but wondering if there's an update from mr_chin

the video he uploaded is no longer available.

Hasn't posted in 2.5yrs, hasn't come to rs in 2yrs BibleThump

Guess I'll add a dream to this :lol

Must be part of a dream but anyway, was having my usual adventure/action movie type dream, but I wake up its like 3am, and I see a fireman standing at the foot of my bed!

He was just staring at me, I was startled thinking there was a fire in the hotel and I slept thru the alarms

I sit up immediately, yell for my gf to get up cuz we got to go! I turn on the bedside light and the fireman floats outside the field of light, sudden chills, and then as I'm staring at him, the fireman disappears

GF is fully awake now wondering wtf is going on, I explain I mustve had a dream ab a fireman :lol

I fall back asleep, but she's scared as hell, and didn't sleep the rest of the night :lol
