Question: I thought it may have been a ghost. I was having a really bad dream. Only to wake up to an extreme pressure on my back. I tried to scream but I couldn’t move anything but my eyes. Just kept trying to scream until I was able to blow air out my mouth and eventually push the pressure off. Scared me a lot. So glad I found this website. Never heard of sleep paralysis before.
Kevin: I’m glad you found this website too Jeremy. Hope the science gave you some good perspective on your experience. If you’re interested in learning more, and learning how to control these sleep paralysis episodes if it happens to you again, I just read an extraordinary book about how to do just that. You can check out my review of it here.
