Ok this has happened to me like 4 or 5 times. I wake up and I know that I'm awake because I see all my room. When I try to move my body doesn't respond. I try and try with all my force to move but I just can't. In order for it to pass I just have to relax. It's the scariest feeling and I was wondering if it's happened to any of y'all.
I get that a lot too since young, so it's a normal routine. Chinese use to say that it's a 'ghost' sitting about you, sleep paralysis, but there's scientific medical report saying its REM sleep. Either, both are scary. I have problem sleeping sometimes. & whenever I'm awake I see stuff, always a particular woman in white dress, it scares me badly, but I know I have to go thru it.
I know what you mean. But it only happens to me whenever I have this one dream. And I only get this dream when I fall asleep on the living room floor at my dads house. I have that dream a few times in year, and I wake up in the middle, I can't move, I relax. A few mins later I can get up, so i go pee lay back down and go back into the dream, which is a scary/freaky one... Talk about freaky. :/
I have woken up like you, but my body and eyes will not move. It is indeed scary, and I need to relax to be freed. It has happened a few times, and usually only happens if I am very tired but do not want to sleep, like when Im watching a movie with a friend at 5:AM. I just assume my body is so tired that I wake it before it does.
