physical impotence can be a sign of your body’s helplessness…from over training or very hard training. Theoretically, it says you have been pushing to the point of exhaustion and have nothing left to give. Good job!

And semen.
Don’t forget the semen.
I have only experienced the sleep paralysis one time that I can remember but I always have those dreams where you are falling and when you hit the ground, it feels like your body is coming back into itself. The paralysis is scary as fuck if you have never experienced it or heard of it when it happens.
Dreams are pretty awful.
On any given night I can remember between 10 and 15 dreams to great detail… Most of them are nightmarish and often I am aware of being asleep like yourself and try to force myself to wake up. I have lots of recurring dreams unfortunately with some the message is clear in other cases not so much. When I remember this dreams while awake I feel nauseated. Recently I have been dreaming that I am dry retching. Strange stuff.
ZMA however do little to change my dreams. Maybe they can’t get any crazier.
In fact they probably can be more strange than we can imagine.
you guys both know the rule. I can’t enter a room if I’m not invited. anything I do to you after you give permission is your own fault.

To be fair, when you said ‘Can I come inside?’ I thought you were talking about…something else.
Mostly because you asked when we were making love.
Don’t steal my semen.

Really? The place near me is all about semen.
I’ve had the Innefective fight dreams before. Lately i’ve been having these dreams where a dog is out of control, so I tackle him, but his neck twists around my body like an anaconda, and bites me in my hand.
Only in my hand.
This also takes place in a fabricated city in my mind with red and black walls.

Most my dreams are good, but once every couple of years I have this dream where it’s the last day of school and I realize there was one more class I forgot to go to all semester, the final is in 5 minutes and I have no idea where the room is on campus. I’m not going to graduate if I don’t find it and take that test. When I wake up I say to myself “thank god, it was just a dream”.
There was a couple of times as a child when I was sick, had a high fever and would wake up from a nightmare but keep having it while I was awake. I guess that means I was hallucinating. I remember being in bed seeing a man with a knife come at me from the doorway. When he got to me he would suddenly be back at the doorway again. I eventually ran out the room, down the stairs and jumped over the couch. I peeked over the top only to see the man coming at me again, get to the couch and start all over again. I ran and hid all over the house those nights. My parents never woke up and I never thought to get them. It was really freaky.
About a year ago my young son was having Night Terrors. That’s really scary waking up to your child’s blood chilling screams in the middle of the night. Even worse, you can’t really even wake a child from that state. You can kind of settle them down and get them back to bed, but they don’t wake up and they don’t remember a thing.
Another time I woke up to my son’s screaming, he was actually awake and stuck between the bed and the wall. Jammed down so tight I had to pull the bed away from the wall to get him out. Just thought I’d throw that one in.
Hey guys sorry I’m late to this but I have some interesting info and insights for you. It’s a little metaphysical, but I have done a LOT of reading and researching into many things metaphysical. Here is my basic rundown of why dreams happen and what is going on in good dreams and bad dreams etc… Also this is just what I believe to be reality, so I’m not stating any of it as fact.
Ok, So essentially, I believe all of us have a soul, or more precicely, are connected by our “soul” to the source of everything, what some people refer to as god. This soul which can be easily imagined as a silver chord that connects you to god and travels through all of existance. Our Human Bodies our our representation in a 3D experience, we have “current” experiences happening all the way up our soul back to the source. When our brain is concious, our 5 senses are transferring information, our experiences to our soul. There is information flowing the other way, but it is hard for the human brain to process and substantiate. It’s also largley drowned out by the niagara falls of information going the other way. It would be like picking out a small creek running the other way in the middle of niagara falls. It’s there, but when awake, it’s nearly impossible to identify or understand.
When we stop the flow of information upstream, via sleep or meditation, more of that little stream is noticeable, and while we are not set up well to “record” or remember when sleeping, there is some residual data stored. Often times this data is “interpreted” by the brain because certain things that are realities in higher planes of existance are not comprehensible, so the brain assigns to the best of it’s ability, a real experience which could be similar to the information or a symbol of it.
You can actually train your brain to “record” information it recieves when you are sleeping. Keeping a dream journal is the best way to do this, just record every last detail of any dream you can remember as soon as you wake up. Keep your journal right by your bed with a pen and start writing as soon as you stir. Over a couple weeks and months you will go from writing paragraphs to many pages from just one nights dreams.
Ok so now that we have a little bit of an understanding of what dreams are (real experiences that you or your souls is experiencing on a higher plane) we can interprit them a little bit. One thing which is a believed phenomenon is that in the plane of existance closest to us on the high side, it is commonly referred to as the 4th dimension or the astral plane, is that physical form is very loose and thought or intent drives much of what beings experience. Also there main governing rule there is that like attracts like. Entities exist which are dark and light, according to our concepts this could be viewed as good and evil. I just see them as dark and light.
I have had direct and indirect experiences where a dark entity was interacting with me when I was in a dream state but awake, where the entity was creating negative scenarios for me so that I would in return feel fear, anger or hate and in turn, I would feed it with my emotional energy. I would actually radiate negative energy in response to the scenarios this thing set up and feed it. Any negative respone I could come up with to fight this thing was pointless as I just made it stronger. Through much reading and understanding of the situation I was dealing with, I learned that like attracts like and my negative energy was empowering this thing. So my next run in with one, I reacted to the event by imagining (similar to a super sayin powering up) a radiant gold positive light eminating from my body. This light contained my love and understanding for the creature accepting it’s existance but showing it that I was not interested in helping it sustain itself, but maybe another time. So shortly, the experience change to a positive one, where positive energy beings arrived due to my response and illicited more positive scenarios so I would nourish them with positive emotions.
I had a few separate situations where I woke up and my wife was thrashing in a heavy nightmare. I could percieve the invaders as I was still half asleep myself and there was more than one which were causing her a pretty rough nightmare. I did the gold light projection and sure enough she soon awoke out of her nightmare and told me how she was being held down by something and she felt like it was trying to eat her and she just couldn’t fight it off. Then she said suddenly a bright light came in and chased them off just before it felt like they were going to kill her.
When I was younger these dark entities would take whatever form they could to illicit a response from me. After I watched the movie the blob as a child I remember having horrible nightmares afterwards where the blob would chase me down and try to suck me up. Here is the thing, they feed of your negative emotions, fear being a prime one. If the blob were to have just got me and killed me, the dream would be over or the entity would have to create some new fear to keep me feeding it, so they generally always make you feel like you are about to be brought great harm but rarely ever do you actually experience the great harm in your dream. Now I just see them for what they are, as soon as I come to “become aware” in a dream, if it’s bad I just expose them and say hey see ya later, and start projecting some love or other positive feelings and then I basically play with some nice astral entities. I’ll just also add quick, how you go to bed, I mean what emotional stuff you have going on has a great influence on what your dreams start out like.
Anyways, that about sums up what I feel about the whole thing. I mean it’s a summary, there is a lot more to all of it than that, but I hardly think anyone wants to read the last 15 years of my experiences jammed into one post. It would probably be about 10 pages worth of one post LOL.

I’m assuming this has something to do with the paralysis that occurs during REM sleep. As such, I am left struggling to move in order to wake myself up. I’ve made fairly epic efforts for what seems like hours before I finally wake up. I imagine this is what it must feel like to be bound and tortured.
This particular morning I was held down by a rather attractive girl, who then proceeded to attempt removing my soul via my mouth. Bitch didn’t get it.

Sleep paralysis. It’s not an uncommon phenomenon but it’s pretty disturbing (things like alien abductions and, in older times, demonic visitations have been chalked up to being a symptom of the same thing).
I’ve had it before - it’s like I wake up, but only half way, and feel like I’m being dragged down into a big black well of death and have to struggle like crazy to wake up. It hasn’t happened to me for a good while, thank god, but it’s really fucking unpleasant.
I did go through a phase last year of Exploding Head Syndrome. This is a real phenomenon with an incredibly awesome name, where you’re shocked awake by in imagined, but very, loud noise.
Scared the shit out of me the first few times it happened but after I did some research and found what it was, I generally just roll over and go back to sleep. Again, hasn’t happened for a while - I guess things like this and sleep paralysis are more likely to happen if you have some stress in your life.
I do dream vividly but always have, but ZMA (which I take nightly along with 5-HTP) doesn’t seem to make much difference. I did get some really weird fucking dreams when I was quitting smoking 12 or so years ago and had the 24 hour patches. Nicotine is pretty interesting when you’re asleep.

Yeah, you got stiffed. The Dalai Lama promises everybody total consciousness on their deathbed.

I get the noise thing sometimes too. I wake up on the tail end of a loud or sudden noise/feeling, but I know it’s not real, like it’s a fading relic from a dream.
This sleep paralysis stuff really is interesting. I’ve never felt such a strong desire for any one thing as much as I feel the need to move, yet I simply can’t. If I put half the effort I use trying to escape these ‘dreams’ into my waking life, I imagine great things would happen. There’s such a deep and profound feeling of urgency–fear, as well–but mostly just the complete conviction that I simply MUST move, do something, act.
Like isometrics for my soul.
I think its kind of cool that some dreams have these long drawn out plot lines that can span an entire day. Yet in real time dreams only last, what, 5 to 45 mins? Amazing.
