SP happens occasionally. As far as I know, it's simply what happens when your mind wakes up faster than the body.
I also have heard that your body kind of "holds" your mind in dream state until you can fully awake, so you may see things while you can't move.
100% of all alien abduction stories come from that, IMO. :D
It scared the crap out of me when it happened, once, and what's worse is that you remember it, unlike most nightmares. |

| i think i've been through this only once before. i was young and coulndt remember what happened. all i remember is being temporarily frozen and i couldnt move anything. the problem was i didnt know if i was dreaming or not so i didnt make a big deal about it and that was forgotten quickly... |

good idea. i was even gonna go as far as to see if i can get the name and number of the chick who lived in the apartment before us and see if she had simliar experiences. i told my bf and he was like, "oh jesus, jamie the ghost buster"...
i always related ghost stories to like 100 year old houses next to grave yards and stuff. this is like a brand new luxury apartment complex...so i guess they are everywhere |

you know what's pissing me off so bad??? my dad and this guy i work with are pulling the whole, "you were dreaming it" bull. i know i was awake and i know what i felt... |
well that gets into a whole what is reality thing. If you break it down what you experience is just brain waves. Your receptors transduct all the outside world, whether it be sound waves...light waves...odors, and channels that to the brain. That is where we experience the world.
SO it is possible to be dreaming yet it seems like reality. I am no judge on that and I would never say anyone was lying. I just always point out the possibility that it could have been imagined.
This has also kind of sparked my interest in it. Now i;'ll be looking around for some info.
Here's a Standford Site on it.
and your belief in "ghosts" or spirits just adds to the unpleasant emotino of the eperience. Since you don't understand em, it is freaky. |

The apartment complex is probably located on an ancient indian burial site.

It happened to me one too. I woke up and couldnt move.
For some reason though, I remembered I'd heard about it on Discovery Channel a week before, so I just lay there until it passed. :) |

| i had that happen, where i cant move when i wake up. i think its like when you fall asleep in the car when parked and your foot or something loses the blood so when you wake up it hurts when the blood starts pumping back in. anyways, ya, that happened to me once, i was like wtf, and then it started to hurt and hten i could move, thought it was kind of funny afterward though |

| When I was younger (about 8 or 9) I used to unconsciously get up in the middle of the night and just sit on the bed all night and stare at the wall... I was pretty freaked out when I realized what I was doing... |

this has actually happened to me before several times. I never knew that this was really a medical condition or anything. its definitly a very strange and unpleasant experience. like you cant move at all but your mind is semi-awake and you can still think. everytime it happens though I know what is happening and still can't control it. I've heard things before when its going on but im starting to think that it's like half dreaming or something. i hate when it happens its so f'd up.
I've never gotten any ghosts visits like some of the other posts, but if i do I hope the ghost is a DJ and can spin for me when I in the middle of the SP!! |
