Paralysis

Another dream I had about a couple of months ago went like this- I was lying on my side awake, curled up a little. I think I was in sleep paralysis. So I was half awake. All of a sudden my body starts to rotate anti-clockwise. What I mean is that my head went from being on my pillow to down where my feet were and all 360degrees until I was back where I started! Although I was under my quilt, when I spun, I seemed to be on top of it because I could see my room moving round as I rotated! This happened a few more times and I could not wake myself up. I was actually scared. Eventually when I thought I was awake I thought I have to tell my mum and dad now because that was too creepy. So I got out of bed and started to feel my way along the wall to get out of my room. As I went to open the door, I actually woke up and was still in my bed.

Has this happened to you?

Write it down while you still remember the details. We will look for the others.

Know someone this happened to?

If this reminds you of something a friend or a relative told you once and never mentioned again, send them this page. Reading that a stranger described the same thing is usually the part that helps.
