Murl I had this problem a lot and just decided to find out what it is. It been a while probably 10 years ago when it started. I use 2 always ask people about it and some will say the devil riding yo back. Then some will act like they don't know anything about it. Anyway I could have just felt asleep and I feel it when it happens. I could here whatever thats going on in the room. For example friends could be in the same room talking and I hear they conversation and the t.v. to if its on. But I try to wake up and I cant move or talk. I be wanting to just tell the person thats in the room with me to wake me up but I cant talk. Usually the only thing that helps me wake up is my leg. Thats the only thing I could move on my body. I would just shake my leg until I wake up and I use this for years and still do. I recently found out my leg actually be moving while Im sleep cause I be in the bed with my girlfriend and I would be kicking her. She knows about it now so if she feel my leg shaking or me kicking her in my sleep she already know to wake me up. Hey it works! Anyway I just hate that feeling and hate when that happens. Sometimes when it happen I wait for a while before I go back to sleep. But thanks to Google and this website I got some answers and even told my little encounters or story. Sorry for the long comment just wuz trying to tell about my encounters with whatever u want to call it I just dont like it! 7/20/2011
Joy I am trying to find out if I what I get is considered sleep paralysis or a night terror,..I had the symptoms as a teenager (aind I do recall things on my bed ) I used to sleepwalk as a child,..I didnt experience any again until I was in my 20's,...then they stopped, now I am in my 40's and they have started again, I cannot move I cannot scream out I try and I manage enough noise to get my husband to reach out to me then I am ok its like a trance,...I am desperately searching for reasons. 12/19/2010
chris kelly i think jason may be right. once you let your guard down you are more vunerable.
negativity is not good as spirits can take your energy. i might get my house cleansed.		 10/3/2010
chris kelly i think mine is happening because my father died last year. i also seperated from my husband of 20years 4 months after my dads death. do you think stress may be causing it? 10/3/2010
Monique I have been haveing this "sleep paralysis" for about maybe 10 years now, and they do seem to be getting worst. before it would seem like someone is on my back and choking me, but now it just seems like something is in my "sleep paralysis/ dreams", Call it imagation or whatever. All i know is when it happens im scare and I am always trying to call for help but as always it doesn't work. I just wont it to stop, because now that it is getting worst not only am I scared but I wonder maybe one day I will not be able to wake up. 6/7/2010
Jason People think this is a medical condition because of science, to me the truth is if you have all these symptoms it's because you have lead a life of trauma and stress so much to were you have weakend and this is when thr demons or god reaches out to you... 5/18/2009
Latrice I am so glad to find this web site. I have had this problem for years. I am an African- American. It started when I was in my teanage years. It is horrible. When it happens sometimes I feel like its maybe death trying to take me. I try to fully wake up, but I be so tired, I can't. I fall right back asleep. It may only happen one time the night I have the attack. I hate it. I'm not evil, just stubborn. I love Jesus with all my heart. I wish I could avoid them. If I can What Do I Do? 4/3/2009
