Scratches And Bites
When I Sleep Am I Susceptible?
I am a 29 year old male and the past few years I have had some strange experiences when I go to sleep
I had unexplainable things happen to me since I was about 7 years old
Sometimes I have really great experiences and other times downright fearful
About 3-4 times a month or more or less..
I am prone to feeling like something is in my room and trying to interact with me
I've never seen it until tonight..
Its 12:25am about 40 minutes after my experience and I tried to read online about what I saw to see if there was anything about it. Here I am. Now sometimes I when I feel something is in my room or around I can never see it
I just get a malevolent feeling as if something is there to try to do harm to my being in some way
It feels as if it's pushing into me and I fight very hard to awaken..
And I am filled with a feeling of fear
At times I often find it hard to fall back asleep and it may occur 2-3 more times as I try to fall asleep..
When this happens I will try to sleep with the light on..
But to no avail..
It either will stop on its own or not..
I have even had this occur during the daytime hours of the morning
Time of day does not matter nor amount of light
This happens to me quite frequently since I was a kid
Sometimes even what's classified as night terrors occurs in me..
Where I have intense fear and scream and have an episode where I have no recollection of an experience..
Just a remembrance of intense fear. As of lately..
Like the last year or so..
I have had GOOD experiences similar but more intense than this
It sometimes feels as if something GREAT..
I describe it as EUPHORIA..
Not fear is trying to take a hold of me
Often at times this feeling gets SO intense that I don't want to wake up..
But I have to because I can't stand it..
Its gets more and more intense the longer it lasts..
It's almost like falling down a rollercoaster..
In terms of the butterfly feeling in the stomach but way more euphoric..
At first it didn't last long..
But I could hold the feeling..
The good feeling in me longer and longer..
As it happened more frequently..
I would know I was asleep at least somewhat at the time..
But I'm not in deep sleep..
This occurs about 20-30 minutes after I first try to fall asleep..
Now as I got better at holding this good feeling in me..
I would start to feel energy radiating from my hands and arms..
Vibration if you will..
It feels very powerful..
Like I could shoot lighting or move mountains with my hands..
Well tonight I got that feeling and I was able to open my eyes while experiencing this..
I saw waves around my hands and as I breathed it went past the waves it looked like smoke..
A stream of it billowing out from my mouth..
Like mist..
And it looked like heat waves from my hands..
Like how heat bends light waves..
And I was able to see my mirror across from my bed and I saw a dark figure in my room..
Couldn't see the face..
But it was hooded
This led to intense fear..
I mean I could see my TV on..
My hands shaking and vibrating before this, waves and smoke, mist everything..
Then the figure in my mirror..
Then I got scared and tried to awaken or snap out o it..
Whatever you want to say..
I'm partially crying writing this..
This isn't a dream this is an EXPERIENCE I can recall vividly an accurately and it fits the MO of everything strange that happens to me at night..
I know it's not a ghost in my house..
This happens TO ME..
In lots of places I have slept..
But this is the first time I have seen the figure..
I know I'm not crazy..
I'm very in control of myself and my life..
But I feel when I am asleep maybe I am more vulnerable or able to be influenced somehow by something..
I would love some input because the other stuff I can dismiss as sleep paralysis or brainwave crap that happens in the first 30 minutes of sleep..
But now it just got a whole lot real..
My eyes were open this time I witnessed it all...
