Paralysis

9/14/2014 Woke up at like 9am not remembering my dream. Decided to try some binural beats. Popped my earbuds in and went to sleeping, Felt all tingly as usual and fell asleep. Woke up an hour later, did not remember a thing. Retried, felt tingly, then suddenly I "woke up" but I SWEAR I was conscious the whole time, 20 minutes passed. Then I tried for the final time. I felt it! I was FALLING into a dream! It felt like I was falling backwards, felt butterflies in my stomach, though "THIS IS IT I AM GOING IN DEEP!", it felt like a rapid slide show was going on in front of me, but the pictures were just blackness, some really dark grey. Heart was pounding and all I saw was blackness, then nothing, I guess I woke up in half-sleep paralysis. I could barely open my eyes, I was super heavy, but I managed to get my torso up and out of bed. I laid back down and just moved all my body as much as I could to wake myself up, and then I went on with my day. Was that an OBE I just had? I felt super heavy and everything felt weird. My dad said he had an OBE while using binural beats, so maybe I did too? This is not the first time I suspect myself of having an OBE.

What stood out: paralysis
