I don't have too many scary stories. I try not to dwell on negative thoughts or give a voice/power to that sort of thing!
The last time I did... Near sleep, I started to experience sleep paralysis. From the bed I witnessed myself crawl through my window; my doppelganger crawled on the floor to my bed and eventually on top of me, suffocating me & in a terribly deep guttural voice begged me to leave the physical plane. Haven't had a sleep paralysis experience since, but I also haven't actively attempted to astral project because of it.

oh my god, i'm so sorry you had to deal with that. That's terrifying. I suffer from sleep paralysis too so i understand, however i've never experienced what you have, mine is usually people trying to wake me up or things coming to get me very slowly. I hope you never experience it again D:
I've just read up about astral project, it sounds really interesting and i would love to try that but i'd be too scared.

Ah, I can relate to that.
I used to wake up with night terrors and sleep paralysis almost 5 times a week, but they've started to die down.
The last one I had was when I woke up at 3:00 AM, and something crawled out of my closet and sat on top of me and just stared at me. I've always wondered why sleep paralysis happens to other people. At one point, it was almost like a routine. I'd wake up, the figure crawls out of my closet and sits on me while we stare at each other, heh.
Other than that, sleep paralysis is terrifying. I hope it never happens to anyone on here again. :/
Tbh I experience sleep paralysis during times of distress and depression in my life, which can cause sleep deprivation. But yeah it's because of that, that I don't attempt any kind of ummm subconscious tinkering when I'm feeling down! Having a bad sleep routine can cause it for sure.
Fawning, astral projection can be really amazing and beneficial for some, I think if you want to do it you'll do it when you're ready / feeling positive about it
In the meantime maybe you can search for some stories out there, tons of people put their personal testimonials online.

Astral projection keeps sounding more amazing the more i read about it! It's crazy that you can go out into places you're not familiar with and explore them. I would definitely love to try it!
I don't mean to sound disrespectful if I do come off like that but that sounds scary and I'm sorry you had to go thrugh that, but at the same time I am extremely curious.
Nothing you're saying is disrespectful at all
What are you curious about exactly?Oh, thanksNothing you're saying is disrespectful at all
I thought I was coming off as rude. I want to lucid dream and astral project but for the past few years (on and off) nothing has happened. I suppose I just want to experience the fear of sleep paralysis even though people hate it (understatement I suppose, but I'm curious... and curiosity killed the cat.)

Oh, thanks
I'd like to say that I've also been trying to astral project for years with no luck. I've always wanted to know what it feels like, but I guess It's just a silly goal of mine now.
Well, it's totally possible and more common to lucid dream & astral project without experiencing sleep paralysis. Like Fawning said, your mental state does have an effect on sleep paralysis (as does your sleeping pattern & eating habits)... It can be scary as hell, but if you're able to get a handle on the situation & realize it's sleep paralysis, you can will yourself out of it.Oh, thanks
To lucid dream, you want your body to fall asleep but your mind to stay awake long enough for you to realize you're dreaming. To do this you'll have to lie completely still on your back for a while, like up to 30 minutes. During this time you need to focus on your intentions - clear your head & think about dreaming & remembering that dream, but don't forget to remind yourself that you're awake! Your body will try to waken itself at times, you'll feel the need to scratch an itch for example, but you have to resist it. And if you get too excited you can wake yourself up as well. During this time you might experience sleep paralysis (it's actually a 'normal' experience while your body is shutting itself down for sleep-mode), but if you are aware of it, just remember not to panic before it manifests as a vivid hallucination. After that point your body should be asleep and you'll be able get into a lucid dreaming state.
There are reality checks you can do, and it's good to have a dream journal if it's something you'd like to attempt often.
This is what works for me personally, others achieve a lucid state via various methods that you can read about online. Some helpful sites: Link 1. Link 2.
Astral projection I typically attempt through meditating, and it's even more of a personal spiritual process to me than lucid dreaming, so for that I'd suggest finding what works for you

I nearly got into a car accident once because of a reckless driver. Not a super interesting story to tell, but it was pretty scary from me. I couldn't drive without being nervous for at least two weeks.
We once rented out a cottage in France with some family friends. As we unpacked, my dad decided to check out every room.
He was gone for a while, and we were waiting for him outside. He walked out five minutes later. He said "don't go in the room on the far right".
Being creeped out by this, I steered clear of that room. My mum's friend, however, hadn't heard my dad tell us not to go in. She did, but she suddenly felt terrified and left immediately.
My sister, who was young at the time, wanted to explore in there. She took one step in there and said "this is the witch's room".
Creepy...

Aw, how sweet! I'm working on compiling some stuff for you guys. DOn't worry.
oooh yay! i can't wait to read them c:
I've encountered reckless drivers on countless occasions, it really annoys me how irresponsible people can be when they have a 2 tons weapon in their hands. It just goes to show you that you have to be alert every second you drive. What happened to you exactly?
I'm sorry but this is by far the worst thing I've ever heard, I think I'd literally die o.o

m I have and perhaps get it from my father I do not know but have always had what you would call that gift of seeing what some others can't, feeling and such too. When I was younger I thought nothing of my friends mainly the guy with the slicked back hair, white t shirt black jeans, until I realized no one else saw him well not then. He warned me of things ect protected me. As I got older I had flashes vivid memories of a past life with this person. When I was 17 a woman came in to where me my mom and my sister were and she was known for seeing things and told them I was not alone and described him to them and since by then they knew I think were in a little shock. He kept saying time is not how we think it is and though he was there he would come back as I did my fianc? younger than me 21 I am 30, when we met I would play songs and various things connected with this person he never knew any of this and kept saying things or that strange things were happening a song would come on he would run out of the room keeps telling me of these weird flashes dreams ect I haven't said a word yet. My first boyfriend who was horrible was fighting with me once and I said to leave me alone because N was getting pissed and he kept saying no it's me I am your person he put his hands on me and from across the room I could see he couldn't all he saw was from the kitchen a loaf of bread picked itself up and slammed past us on the couch into the glass patio door, he let me go. He has been seen many times by a few. Once at a Haloween party other people playing quiji board got freaked because no one was near it and it started moving saying something I understood but they ran instead of reading it off. Never saw him as a shadow just the way he looked at time of past completely like someone just there always was funny when someone would walk past me say something to him keep going and not realize no one was physically there. Things have changed recently but that's a strange thing still figuring out.
Others yes, other things yes, stayed at a famous hotel where a Hollywood murder happened silent era elevator wouldn't stop kept going up until opened on that floor, saw someone in the mirror woman girl actually 20s style dress looking back shadow slipped into a hotel room, doors shut, I asked at the desk and got whole story on that floor is where actor ,fatty, Arbuckle was in a mysterious incident and an underage actress died in that room heard stories and other incidents of guests. This was in San Francisco. Many stories but if want to know we can talk about it won't and can't put it all here but yes many out of ordinary things throughout my life.
Voices showing up on recordings, knowing things before they happen usually not good, have had many experiences too long to list so I learned to handle it by educating myself on things and learning how to control what I used to do for people by making something they wanted to happen happen but am older now so more cautious with what I will and won't do and know how now. People want tarot readings fine, they want to ask something fine but it is not my fault if they do not hear what they want. I always can see when someone has an attached or the in betweens but it doesn't scare me it never really did. More my family when younger at what would go on around me aside my dad as he is the same well a little different I can't pull electrical energy like he can, send him through a detector of any kind it will go off, electronics go nuts around him, and if it lightening you don't want to be anywhere close to that man. When he was a kid one went through the window and struck two inches from his head, he also has had past life flashes but he doesn't think much of it as it is not intertwined in his current life the way mine was but that is probably due to backstory.
Paranormal is normal it is everywhere all the time all it means is outside what we understand and if you went back in time and gave a cell phone to someone they would think it was evil one day we will know more. I'm used to it. For the kids though I would warn not to mess with things you do not understand as games or you could if not protected let something in you do not want to. It is not a game. There is good, between and very bad news and you do not want to end up with a negative attachment. For people who do not believe in things when it happens to you one day you may change your mind but most only maybe if only have one or two weird experiences they can rationalize away and not have to orient to it as normal.
