    it most likely is not marijuana related, so i don't see why this is here, but whatever.

    its not that uncommon, and as long as it doesn't interfere with your day to day life and isn't frequent enough to cause you any significant level of personal distress, it is nothing to worry about. if the problems persist, i'd recommend seeing a sleep therapist or someone else more qualified than the average forumite to help you fix the problem.

    My friend had this as a side effect of some heavy shrooming. Have you done any shrooms lately? But one thing is for sure. It's nothing a good bowl can't fix =)

    it doesn't have anything to do with mj. when you go to sleep your body goes into paralysis, so that you dont move around. people occassionally dont have this, causing them to sleep walk. if you are woken out of deep sleep then sometimes your will feel the affects of paralysis as control hasn't returned yet. no need to worry bout it unless it happens alot, then you may have some problems

    oh man, this happened to me a lot when i was little. i'd wake up in the middle of the night and not be able to move at all. i was afraid to open my eyes cuz i thought that i'd see aliens taking me away, haha.

    oh man! haha i was all freaked out when this happened 2 me. but yah um...search google for it..i found this webnsite that like explains all..but i cant find it now. but um yes when it happened 2 me i was in the state of half alseep, half not...and i cudnt move or talk and i wsa like haullncanting, seeing these fairies and having these voices talking to me i was so scared!!! but uh basically what it is - is that when u fall asleep ur body paralyzies...BUT if ur body paralyizes BEFORE ur mind goes 2 sleep..then thats where this happens and so ur 'dreams' just seem more real cuz yer mind isnt really alseep yet...but your body is....dig? lol.

    ive never experienced sleep paralysis that i can remember. i sleep like a rock. and used to sleepwalk a lot. once i locked myself in the bathroom. another time i went downstairs and opened the door (at the preciseee moment that my stepsister was getting home late at night, apparently she got to the door and i suddenly opened it and went for a walk in the yard)
    i get lucid dreams relatively a lot.
    but once im asleep... which can be hard... my mind tends to like to stay there.

    Never suffered from sleep paralysis, thankfully.
    Sounds quite frightening to me.
    How long does it last and is it a frequent thing.
    Hope I never get it.

    I fell asleep in school once..
    and I was in this whole paralyse-thing. still sleeping, but I did had my eyes open and could see the people around me and everything. then someone said something I didn't agree with. .. So I wanted to give my opinion, but I couldn't speak.. or move. I just lay there in dissagreement.
    it was quite the freaky thing.

    Do you smoke much POT sabel, being from the Netherlands.?
    I really envy you having all that choice of weed.
    I've got to wait until Feb before I'm there again in the Dam.

    heh. what'd you call much?:rolleyes:

    nah.. but I don't think that has got anything to do with that paralysis.

    living in the netherlands is heavenly though.

    I bet.
    I adore Amsterdam, been loads of times now.
    I always go in Feb every year as it's less touristy and all that.
    Anyway, have a great Queensday next week, Sabel.
