Sense of another person during episode?
It’s not day one news of the “evil figure” when it comes to sleep paralysis, everyone always says it like a shadow figure or something like that.
I personally never saw one myself with my eyes, but I can feel someone approaching me in my sleep. This makes me wonder, does their interaction with me have something to do with me? I know the figure is basically a hallucination, so is my brain trying to tell me something? (Like how your dreams relate to your daily life in a way, where maybe you’d get nightmares due to traumatic events and your fears etc)
The figure is not always here, only some of my episodes. My most recent one which was just literally 5 minutes ago so i decided to talk about it. I’m sleeping on my side facing my door, I cannot see anything so far. I feel “someone” entering my room, it sat next to me on my bed, but I could feel hands slipping under me and over me almost like you’re trying to pull someone off the bed by warping your arms on their upper body. I didn’t really feel force of drag, but I did feel it tapping the bed to wake me, and harder when I didn’t open my eyes, that’s when I snapped myself out of my episode forcefully (I do that a lot.)
I just wonder if anyone has experienced something like this? I’ve never seen anyone talk about it in this way, only saying they feel eyes on them or see a shadow person but never “interacting”, is this like normal or is something else wrong with me lol
