It happened again last night but this time is was different..
You know these dreams people talk about how they would wake-up totally paralyzed and how they would feel this force pushing them down and the more you fight the stronger it gets...
I get them too. Started about 10 years ago it happened again last night but this time is was different..
This is what happened:
I woke up laying on my side and started looking around in the room. I immediately felt something was off.I had this bad feeling of fear just overwhelming me.. I then hear two woman talking in a room close by sounded like my mother speaking to another woman. My mother said to this woman it was because our house was build on a graveyard ... I lay there thinking to myself WTF how come I never new this..The voices then goes quite... I can feel the force coming towards me. I prepared myself for what was coming..but this i didn't expect..
The force didn't try to push me down this time it tried to lift me off the bed and pulling me to one side.. It lifted me about 50-60cm from the bed and suddenly let go..The weird feeling just disappeared like nothing happened..
What can I say ... Scared ****less is a mayor understatement

I've heard these scientific explanation before but i still just don't know...
Over the years if started noticing a pattern..
I would get this weird feeling earlier that same night usually a few hours before I go to sleep. I now that this as a warning.
Every single time I get out of this "paralysis state" Dogs in the neighborhood would just be going crazy .. Barking and howling for minutes I only start relax once they quiet down... are they sensing something to? Animals are known to predict natural disasters.. Just saying

Check out mouks signature 
Have you heard of The Fourth Kind ?
Its about alien abductions and stuff. Based on a "true story" and there is actual real life footage. There is one scene where a person's body is lifted off a bed. Its freaky and violent though. Lots of screaming.
I remember seeing this trailer once years ago and wanted to see it but I forgot the name.. Thanks.. but know i'm not so sure anymore
That freaky poster Pic....DerpiesFreud

I'm not one for scary movies... Was forced into watching this by my little bro. I actually enjoyed the sci-fi/paranormal part of it. Its an alright-ish movie. You have to watch it !

This.
mouks, what you're describing is textbook sleep paralysis, you should really research it a little. My SO used to get it quite often and she used to be TERRIFIED. It's not so bad anymore, in fact, she hasn't had it for a while now. The experience is not so traumatic anymore -when it does happen - so it's easier to deal with.
Here's another "Sleep Paralysis" story that happened a few years ago while camping with a couple of friends in this house..
I shared a room with a friend. There where two single beds in the room. I was facing him when it happened..
It started with this weird feeling that woke me up... I felt someone sitting down on the bed in-front of me and then a hand resting on my shoulder.
I started to freak out and tried calling my friends name.. Each time I called my friends name, I felt the hand grabbing my shoulder a bit harder and shaking it and then a Voice saying.. "No.. its somebody else".
Totally freaked out I called my friend name again and the same thing happened the shaking of my shoulder and then the voice "No.... its somebody else", as if it wanted me to guess its name or who it was... This happened about 4 or five time until I eventually broke free.
I woke my friend asking for a lighter and while we smoked I told him what happened. He was more freaked out then I was. Never knew the guy was such a wimp ended up laughing myself to sleep.
The next day I told the others what happened and how scared my friend was and we laughed it off. Two days later just before we booked out one my friend decided to leave a message in one of those visitors log books that was laying on a table.. She came running over to me showing me a message from a few months back it read:
"We enjoyed out weekend here but the ghosts were not welcome" .. We found two more entries mentioning ghosts..

What you described before this incident though, is sleep paralysis.
Here's a very simple, basic explanation:
When you go to sleep your body "disconnects" from your brain -since your brain is always active. If this didn't happen, you'd be sleep walking and physically living out the movements in your dreams. Needless to say, this will result in catastrophe.
So the voluntary impulses from the brain to the rest of your body "shuts down".
When you experience sleep paralysis, your brain actually wakes up, but your body remains "disconnected/asleep". It is then that you experience all these weird things. Anything from forces pushing, pulling, voices, sounds, hallucinations, presences, etc. You're awake, but your body isn't. You gain control once your body comes around and then everything weird stops.
I'm not saying what you experienced isn't real. It's very real to you, but there is an explanation. I'd be more likely to believe it's something else if it wasn't for the fact that this always happens to you around bedtime, IE. just before, during or after you sleep. If this happened to you in broad daylight after you had a good night's rest -the previous night - then you might be on to something. Otherwise...you can bet your bottom dollar it's most probably sleep paralysis.
(Well it usually is, 99% of the time

Whats your take people that claims they can see spirits ? Like the guy I met at the party

Well I think that there are so many things that we, as people, don't know that you simply can't discount EVERYTHING. I've personally had some weird stuff happen that I can't explain -in broad daylight, nowhere near bedtime
- eliminating the sleep paralysis explanation.I remember seeing this trailer once years ago and wanted to see it but I forgot the name.. Thanks.. but know i'm not so sure anymore
I better get my flame suit, but I would strongly recommend you go and see a Spirit filled pastor.
He or she will definitely be able to help you.

You and abzo were both kids. You didn't have any framework for an explanation at that stage in your life.
You should now think back and search for other explanations, now that you have experienced more. I can almost bet that both of you had that 'experience' at night or in the dark. Perfect times for the brain to start deceiving you. Because in your evolutionary past danger was always present in the dark. The predator came out of the dark to make a meal of you. Artificial light has not changed millions of years of evolution. If you hear something and can't explain it, then your brain tries to make an 'explanation', even an untrue one like monsters and ghosts.
Not being able to explain something does not equate to it being supernatural.
This life is all we have. If you die, your consciousness dies too. You cease to exist. No such thing as ghosts (or demons of angels).
Enjoy life.
And people (especially adults) who claim they can see dead people needs psychological help.
So I met this guy again last night. I wasn't expecting to ever see him again so was a bit weird getting back into a conversation with him. Eventually as the night passed he told me he became a father and how weird the pregnancy was, He was actually the one having pregnancy symptoms and not his girlfriend. He experienced weird craving, vomiting, cramps was moody all the time blah blah blah... I'm not a father yet and this is the first time I've heard of this thing called Couvade
Just when I thought this guy couldn't get any weirder
