Managed to speak during OBE / SP

[moondial]

Hi all

Not been on here for aaaages, but thought I'd come on after the very strange and scarey (especially for my wife) experience last night.

I was semi out, spinning around, as I usually do - trying to get out proper but not quite managing it, and I kept seeing a white figure in the room which kept freaking me out - so I kept trying to wake my body up, but was deep in sleep paralysis.

I was getting really fustrated, and scared - mainly due to this white shape, and couldn't wake up - I began shouting my wife, she couldn't hear me at first - beacase as usual, I was shouting with my astral voice, I could hear it but noone else could - but then something odd happened.

I managed to just un-paralyse my mouth & voicebox enough to get barely audible sound out! I was completely paralysed, apart from my mouth, and I managed to shout (in a very strange sounding croaky voice) my wifes name out of the corner of my mouth, and then say "Wake me up, wake me up"

It must have been very scarey to witness me, in my sleep - eyes closed - motionless, saying "wake me up" in a very strange voice throught the corner of my mouth!! 

My wife was very scared, she thought I'd had a stroke, I'm only in my early 30's so it's not as if that is particularly likely, but it is how I looked, only the side of my mouth working & rest of body motionless.

She shook me, and I came round, and thanked her for waking me up.

I then looked up to see what the white figure / shape was that was freaking me out during the obe, and it was a picture frame on the wall, with the moonlight reflecting in it!

anyone else experienced anything like this?

Thanks

Oh man.


This stuff happens to me all the time. I guess when it's happening I do actually talk in my sleep, but not to the degree that I'm imagining while dreaming. It gets pretty bad, sometimes I can't breathe right and I panic a lot.

Make sure you get enough sleep, don't stay up for long periods of time, and it won't happen

I wouldn't call it talking in my sleep, my body was asleep but I was 100% awake - it was a case of managing to consciously & deliberately un-paralyse only my mouth & vocal cords while in sleep paralysis.

That is - I was in SP, and trying my best to shout, and unlike normal when I can hear myself but no one else can, this time I actually managed to shout for real - consciously, while my body was still paralysed - asking my wife to wake me up.

Shouting mumbo jumbo is one thing - but actually being able to consciously converse while in SP, I found pretty amazing.

I've done it twice since, but I've not managed to unparalyse my mouth / vocal cords fully in these cases and all I've been able to get out is gibberish.

its only happened to me a few times. not exactly whats going on with you. but in a deep trance state I will think a word randomly through the silence and it slips out verbaly on its own. saying a word without taking the steps or thoughts twards speaking. it also happens with hand movement. if I think of moving my arm, without visualizing it. just meditating in a trance state my arm will jerk up, without me actually moving it.
