Oh Dear... NS has resurfaced. :roll:

OT: If you were hallucinating that you were in the same room, then it was probably sleep paralysis. One of my cousins and my girlfriend gets those sometimes. Kind of scary whenever my girlfriend wakes me up because of the noise during a sleep paralysis and she couldn't breath or move.

Once, my cousin told me he was hallucinating that he was seeing a bunch of shadowy figures holding him down and he couldn't move nor breath. I choke during my sleep and could not breath for a minute because of my epiglottis sometimes but that's a different case.

How old are YOU, good sir? Most people my age (18-20, college basically) take naps all the time.


I'm 19 and if you get over I dunno...15 or something you shouldn't need naps at all. And before that maybe if you want to stay up late, I wont lie. I used to sleep a few hours when I was young for new year and party's etc but now? Seriously, if you get a good 7/8 hour sleep you shouldn't need nap time.

Are you not in college yet? You'll see. I have 8am classes and with studying, parties, sports, working out, etc, sleep is hard to come by. So, when I don't get a full 7-8hrs because I had to stay up debugging a program until 3am and then get up at 7am to get ready for my 8am class, then spend all day in classes until 4pm... yeah, a little nap when I get home is nice.

Naps ftw.

Yes but the last night I got a good 7/8 hours of sleep was maybe the first weekend of summer before I started work. I get up around 6 am every morning and am up usually till around midnight doing school stuff. Five and a half hours of mediocre sleep couple with some hard classes = Napping :love:

Seriously though, I wish I didn't need naps and got a good 8 hours of sleep each night, that'd be awesome. :banghead:

Nap is necessary (when needed), imo.
It refresh your mind and body.

Lol it's pretty weird when you wake up but you can't feel your hand and it's all limp. It's like someone's arm is attached to your body. Doesn't happen often but when it does, I move my shoulder back and forth and let the limp arm flop around like a dead eel. :P

Only lasts about 30 seconds though.

same thing happens to me, only difference is my hallucination is the demonic girl from the Exorcist, with a big smile on her face. she keeps staring at me and i keep hearing demonic jibberish in my head, i'm awake when it happens but i can't move my arms or anything. it only lasts for a couple minutes, but it's a struggle to snap out of it. scary shit.
i always have those when i stay awake overnight and decide to take a nap.

I got many sleep paralysis, and two scariest that I remember very well.
One: im in bed, eyes opened, see the face of a demon from Hell (Doom) 5 cm away of my face. He is watching me...
Two: i sleep in daytime, an invisible orb vibrates and makes strange sound, in front of my face, trying to tell me smt. My head also strongly vibrates.

And the third one, not scary but it lasts like 15-20s, a lot longer than any previous paralysis, happens in the last state of astral projection. It seems like my consciousness is stuck between sleep and awake.
