The vicious cycle of Sleep Paralysis | Baland Jalal | TEDxIITGuwahati

[jujubee.]

i’ve been experiencing sleep paralysis for years now and over the years i’ve become less fearful while in sleep paralysis but the best way i’ve been able to wake myself up or get out of it is to calm myself down and take slow extremely deep breaths, making sure the breath goes through my whole body, it’s really hard to do especially when ur so scared but once u get that down pact it’s easier to control

[oneilmckenzie]

Im experiencing this when im about to fall asleep and in some cases i could feel when its about to hit.

This dude seriously gets all the information out in such an easy to digest format. Very well done. Thanks for the info!

[meccamiles]

But not even one culture has a positive view of sleep paralysis. I’ve never heard of someone saying they experienced the warmth of an angelic being. It’s always associated with fear and a manifestly dark entity.

[jaironordonez]

I’ve welcomed it. Now I can control my lucid dreams and my sleep paralysis isn’t necessarily scary

[musicalmistress]

Thank you for the informative video! Experiencing sleep paralysis was terrifying and thankfully I haven't gone through it in years. When it happened regularly, I was under emotional stress due to watching my dad lose his battle with cancer. Before being diagnosed w/ anxiety, I was having panic attacks often, gaining weight, and my sleep schedule wasn't healthy.

The sleep paralysis episodes were strange.. I could move my eyes to look around the room but my body from the neck down was stiff and it felt like someone was sitting on my chest. The worst part of it was feeling like something extremely bad was going to happen and it seemed as if pressure was building in my ears to the point of it exploding. Fortunately, sleep paralysis lasted a couple of months and I was able to snap out of some episodes by moving my foot or making a closed fist.

If only I had come across this video 15 yrs ago bc I wasn't aware that these terrifying sleep experiences were stress-related and at the time I was at my lowest point in life. Thanks again!

For me it usually goes like this: my sleep schedule gets messed up and I miss an alarm, which I hate because I don't like being late to anything. Then, when sleeping, I realize I'm in a dream and get scared that I have missed my alarm. I force myself to wake up and boom, sleep paralysis. The more messed up my sleep schedule is, the more often I get sleep paralysis. Just today I was napping and floating on the border of sleep, and every time I woke up I had sleep paralysis. Like 5 times in a row. I am almost at the point where I can fall back asleep while in sleep paralysis because it's happening so often at the moment.

This has happened to me a few times. It's impossible to even open my mouth to speak. I felt as if something was hovering over me staring into my eyes.
Another was seeing someone at the end of the bed walking back and forth. I could hear people talking in the other room. Voices almost to a whisper as if trying not to wake someone. I felt like someone was pushing their hand down on the bed next to me. I could see everything around me. I have read that this is not harmful so I've learned to relax and calm my mind when this occurs.

I had no idea what sleep paralysis was when I had it for the first time a few months ago. At first I thought it was just a nightmare then it kept happening till this day i experience it. I was shocked that my experience is similar to others yet no one had told me how it happens

[attilaosztopanyi]

My sleep paralysis evolved. Now not just hallucinations but it constantly shift between dream and hallucinations. Not one time i thought that i broke out of it but i felt myself still laying in the bed and had to realize it was a dream and im still paralysed. Once i was constantly waling up just in dream but not in real life and it was a nightmare.

[kidyugi]

Interested to hear the science side but how come it's common to get sleep paralysis at 3 am? I heard sleep paralysis is like the state before Astral projection

[priscillahauzel]

I'd experience it everyday these days 🥲 It's horrible to woke up from sleep paralysis at 2:00 in the morning...

[marbenbebing]

So, in your video, I watched every video on here, and most of them say the samething that it's all in your mind, bla bla bla.. that's what I thought before I use to get sleep paralysis all the time, but I will tell you the truth here when we experience sleep paralysis we are on the verge of astral projection but it doesn't happen because we freak out right away and panic, so when this happens when you are asleep when you turn off the lights and go to bed and sleep paralysis occurs remember and notice the room you are in you can see everything even in the dark you can see everything, it's because you're energy can see this way you're seeing with your energy or soul right, then you see these dark entities and that is the spirit worlds they are everywhere and now you're spirit can see them! The hooded shadow man that you can't see his face they don't want you coming out of your physical body, our body is just a sleeve for our soul. Our bodies may die, but our physical bodies die. This is just a few words but wake up.

First one, as soon as I woke up I ran out of my bedroom and ask my parents if they heard me yelling.
They said no
