- I've missed part of this thread, but what is everyone talking about?
-
- (I can hear the groans already...:-)
-
- Why I ask is the sleep paralysis part. If it is what it sounds like it is,
- I would like to ask those more knowledgeable then myself (namely the net),
- about some "sleep paralysis" occurences I may or may not have had myself.
-
- There has been several times in the last 5 or 6 years where a strange lethargy
- spread over me. I have felt no desire to move (in fact, I don't think I COULD)
- and I SWEAR my heart beat slowed immensely, but I wasn't falling asleep. I
- felt light-headed. I never let it go very far, because I was scared to death
- it was something more serious (I've heard stories of people willing themselves
- dead, and darn it, if it didn't feel that way to me). It took an incredible
- amount of will to force myself to move, and my heart to speed up again. Is
- this what sleep paralysis is, or the beginning of an OBE? I don't know much
- about either, so any help would be appreciated.
