Ick! Sounds highly highly similar to an experience I had not long after I moved into my first apartment by myself in Luton. I think I've told you I also suffer from sleep paralysis - and usually it is 'presence-less'. But one of the few times it wasn't was when I left my door unlocked. I discovered this after being paralysed and imagining there was a prescence at the foot of my bed, in the direction of the door. By the time I found myself back to reality and had calmed myself, I found my door ajar.
Methinks perhaps the brain picks up on these things subconciously and acts out our fears either as a warning or self-defence?
Yes, well, kind of scary nontheless. My father used to be big on Astral Travel. Personally I think it's a load of bollocks, but when you have experiences like this a small part of yourself goes "eek".
Erf, i've only experienced that once although it was more of a state between dreaming and awakeness where I was both awake and dreaming at the same time.
There have been times where i've dreamt doing sometime and I did it IRL, and other times where I just dreamt it, then got up and did it again, but IRL.
The worst one was where I dreamt I got up to pee. -.-
*shudders* I might have mentioned my bouts of sleep paralysis/apnoea ages ago; the conscious mind is awake and trying to get me breathing again, and the subconscious is trying to keep me asleep. It can be a struggle of up to thirty seconds before I wake up and start breathing again. I think those are the longest seconds in my life - other than wondering if my Eftpos transaction is going to be declined.
