Begun to have a sleep parálisis while awake, then watching how a shadow person looked at me by the door until my thoughts went from "omg I'm so dead" to stupidly effective "if I'm gonna die, u coming with me". Then it just ended like a bad dream but while being awake, never again tried to sleep in that fricking place.
Sleep paralysis in general. Whenever it happens, there’s always some malevolent presence. I had something sitting on my bed, screaming right in my ear or gust being nearby, and you cannot even turn around to look at it or ask for help even if it’s available.
I recognize the type of sleep when it’s likely to happen, the heavy uneasy feeling usually in the morning, and fight to wake up completely to avoid the encounter. But I always know that I’ll have to go back to bed eventually, I can never escape.
I've had a couple instances of sleep paralysis but my brain is so fucking weird it just instantly identifies what's happening and goes with it like a vaguely intellectual drug trip. My cat advanced on me once and went full on demonic face and i was like 'fckin awesome acid trip, man'
