I get paralysed right before my sleep is it psycological or supernatural?

Question

right before i sleep i get this thing where I cant move or talk, and i am overwhelmed by this amazing fear. Sometimes, I see dark figures standing near me, and I take them to be demon or djinn, at other times i see demonic beings playing at my walls, and there are times when my body is thrown up and slamed down, do i have a demon infestation, or is this just my mind?
After i put a knife and salt under my pillow, and threatened the figure with solomon king it all stoped, how do i explain that?

Answer 1

It is not uncommon for one to have a similar experience at least once in life. I myself have experienced it several times. It is possible for one to become temporarily trapped in a state between wakefulness and sleep where the mind is conscious but the body is not. When this happens, one can often hear and feel, yet cannot speak or move. This naturally induces a feeling of panic. When this has happened to me in the past, I remind myself that I am in no danger and force myself to calm down. I usually fall completely asleep very soon afterward.

Though I have never experienced the "dark figures" you have described, it is not unheard of for people to experience hallucinations in stages between wakefulness and sleep. What confuses me is that you said that you could not move, yet you see something at your walls. Are your eyes open or closed?

In the first stage of sleep, it is not uncommon for a person to feel like they are falling, sometimes resulting in a violent full-body jerk that will wake the person up.

I suggest that you see a doctor for your condition because of the frequency of episodes. Chances are that he/she will treat you for your sleep disturbances.

Sleep paralysis. It happened to me three times, a few years ago. The figures you are seeing as part of the paralysis is called hypnagogia and it's a form of hallucination. Historians suspect that this type of hallucination is where stories of demon infestation, vampires, etc., originate. There are no demons - it's all in your head. Sleep paralysis is when your brain wakes up but your body is still asleep. Your body is paralyzed while you sleep to prevent your body from acting out your dreams. No one knows what causes it, but most people will experience it at least once in their lifetime.

Answer 3

this is sleep paralysis which is a very common sleep condition it is often joined by hallucinatory type images ( many people mistake for demons etc ) it is often brought on by stress , worry and illness
so when you done your little ritual with the salt etc this probably caused you to feel more secure thus aiding your sleep
there is a lot of info on this condition but i would be happy to help if you need any more info on it

I could only move my eyes, so all i could do was just go back to sleep and I awoke scared half to death. I didnt know what the hell just happened but all i know is I'm scared to sleep on my stomach anymore.
