/yume/ - Dreams

Hmmm, nope.
But one time I did manage to manually override my inner ear while trying to lucid dream, resulting in being of balance and feeling motion sick whenever I closed my eyes.
But that only lasted 3 or so days.

Nah. Lots of occurrences sleep paralysis, that is a bit more common though.

It's happened to me a time or two.

Yeah, it's happened to me a few times, once while I was sleeping. Or at least that's the only explanation I can find… I woke up from a bang SO LOUD that it would have shattered my entire wall if it had been real. There was no damage anywhere in the house.

Yeah, one time I had this and sleep paralysis. It was a winter morning in 2004, and I woke up and my eyes were open… and my fan was all warped and the colours were cycling hues. The fan spinning was getting progressively louder and louder, and time dilated to the point that there was this loud hum. It was so weird, and the sight was so terrifying I closed my eyes hard enough for it to hurt.

The FACE event reminds me of this, which makes it particularly traumatising to me.

I've had a couple of EHS attacks before falling asleep. Twice was someone screaming in my ear, once, a trumpet blast, and once, a chainsaw revving. Each time it was incredibly loud, and left me with headaches and insomnia due to fear.

Anyone know how to prevent this? Many times I try to have a WILD it sounds like a jet is taking off in the room or going full throttle on a snowmobile. It only lasts for a few seconds but it's painfully loud and there are bright flashes, often a feeling of falling through a tunnel of light or static. My heart races full speed and it usually wakes me up into a panic attack or causes the lucid dream to only last a few seconds. I've become avoidant of using the WILD technique.

The closest thing I've had was the sense that something like a massive bowling ball was coming at my head, and this was at the end of sleep. There was the ominous, fearful feeling with it, and some noise, but it wasn't loud, and it was more like being attacked than exploding.

That's kinda the same what happens to me every time I start to dream lucid. It's like a firery explosion inside of my heart which is giving me extreme panic while it blows me up into awakeness.

I've actually had EHS iterations I've been thankful for, because they were during a class I was close to dozing off in.
