where you close your eyes and next thing you know you paralyzed, and you can't move a thing and then what seems like hours (in the dream realm) you wake up like from a nightmare? :headscrat

Sort of sounds like 'sleep paralysis'. You should google it and see if that helps....

Those things are the worst. Long time since i had one of those tho

yeah it seems like sleep paralysis but when i experience it i feel pain like something is hurting me it is very frightening

Try having sleep paralysis when you have sleep apnea like I do. Not breathing and being conscience about it and not being able to wake up. so far I have snapped out of it, each time. Some people actually die from it. There is some rock guy who died from it.

Wow never knew you could die from it O_o

It usually only/usually happens when I eat before bed maybe that's it or I that I don't exercise? anyway thanks everyone.

when ever I have those I usually feel like my breath is being riped out of me and there always is a white light.

anoying dreams

i dont think it has to do with the things you eat before you go to bed, nor your exercises...
i've read that it could be because you had some kind of paranormal experience before or during your sleep/dream..
i looked into it, found it quite facinating:p

My mom said it was your soul leaving your body
I just laughed at her hehe ^^

thats what i thought as well, its happened to me a few times and is quite scary, it happens quite a lot when im drunk:)

omg i never knew u could acyually die from it, altho if u get scared enough i guess u could have a heart attack. i have had this all my life, not that much now tho. started when i was a little kid. atleast this is what i think it is :confused:

ive had them ive had great like stopping them by invoking the name of christ or archangel michael..or heck both even.. down south thats what weve always been told to do if we have a dream like that..ive had considerable peace after doing so and went back to sleep..but to each their own.

It happens to 25% of the population. I wrote a paper about it back in high school...

hey out there! i know how you feel. i continue to have these dreams that almost always come true.but the only problem........ they come true in mysterious ways. they started about 7 years ago and they have continued to present day. like this one i had a little while back........ i was watching as someone was getting attacked. i just walked up to the assailant and this blinding white light started to form around me. it began to burn the assailant who then ran for his life screaming in pain. i helped the victim up to his feet. he thanked me then i woke up....... i was burning and tingling all over. could barely move for 3 minutes. i went out that later that day and ran into none other than the victim in the dream.......o it gets stranger........he knew me without me even talking to him!!!! after we got to talking he thanked me again. he had the very same dream the very same night. if there is anyone out there who can explain this or figure it out, drop me a line!

Maybe you are both connected to eachother mentally.Sounds strange.

That's what I read. I think he died from Heart Problems related to it or had Heart Problems and he stopped breathing in his sleep. But it causes the heart valves to become weak. Doctors (I read) used to think it was harmless until a study they did a few years ago found it weakens the heart.

Hey everyone.. i didn't mean to scare anyone with what I said. i dont know if a few cases will kill you. But if you have this problem alot, go see a sleep specialist.

i started a topic on this awhile back, anyway i had this sleep problem before and i actually awoke on the stairs of my house, i told myself im not dreaming this is real and i started to float up the stairs then i got really scared and woke up on the sette. i think this was a out of body experince as iv had them before.

What are yo tryng to get an answer to? What the dreams are about? Or how to stop them?
