A new study suggests people who think differently, feel watched, or experience sleep paralysis are more likely to report paranormal experiences. This is a new angle on understanding these events.

More seriously I realized at least for 10-11 years I just don't have to do anything specific to reach this "I don't feel my limbs" state. When I lie down and don't move it just happens automatically. It's even easier than in the past when I purposely tried to learn relax techniques for #meditation and #LucidDreaming because now, without setting a goal, there is no pressure to "succeed". Sometimes I try to use that already present state to meditation training. Or try to remember this state to somehow use it later for stress/anxiety relief (still not sure how).
It's kind of funny, when I need to do something and have to remind myself how to e.g. use my hand. Similar mental focus like in breaking sleep paralysis, even if not so much effort needed. Muscles are not really turned down, just my brain? mind? thinks they are unusable. Like hypnosis therapy depicted in movies... " Now your legs are very heavy" :blobCat_giggle:
And yes, I am weird freak who really loves #SleepParalysis.

I'm pretty sure I had sleep paralysis this morning, it was super weird.
So in the dream, my thumb nail lifted up, then I pulled something out from under, then replaced the nail down and it got this moving, swirling, black and white kind of effect. I thought it was super weird, so I went to take a picture of it. Then my phone started buzzing like crazy, and I look at the screen and these QR codes keep flashing and changing on the screen.
Then I awoke. I knew I was conscious cuz I had an audio book playing in the background and I could hear it. Suddenly I felt a hand on my crotch, moving from behind up toward my tummy (not at all in a sexy way).
Then I realized that I don't live with anybody, but it felt distinctly like a hand. Then I felt Pepper (specifically) jump up on the bed and sniff my face, but I know it wasn't him cuz he and his brother stay in their room over night.
I tried to move but I couldn't. My vision shifted between everything appearing as black silhouette and clear vision, but all I could do was breath rapidly and heavily through my nose.
Finally, my plushies were in such a way that it looked like a face lying beside me facing up.
Eventually I focused and snapped out of it, but it freaked me out.

@nekoow7 yeah, sleep paralysis really sucks. I had it on an almost nightly basis for the better part of a decade starting in my early teens. With me, I suspect it’s related to #Non24 disorder and it has largely gone away ever since I stopped trying to follow a normal 24 hour day.
I still get it once in a while, but they stopped being scary after the first decade. After that they were just uncomfortable. These days, they rarely happen and they’re more annoying than anything else.
The monsters with hot feet standing on me are long gone. I even breathe just fine. There’s no pressure on my chest. I just can’t move.
In the rare times it happens, my only concern is being able to get back to sleep quickly.
