I’ve been lucid dreaming since I was 4. It was scary as hell and I had a hard time sleeping at night as a kid. When I’m dreaming, I’m aware and can ever watch TV when I’m in the first two stages of sleep. I use to get sleep paralysis a lot, especially in my teens and early twenties. It stopped when I regained my faith in God. The reaction to me being able to move from the sleep paralysis is fear. When I’m paralyzed, I start praying. Then I’m able to move and the SP creature looks confused, then scared. I actually chased on away.
