Hi, I've been having sleep paralysis since I was 9 years old...Now I'm 20...Well, it starts to decrease in the frequency of having it..*thank God...Most of the experiences were me hearing demonic woman laughter that gradually increasing into male voice, sounds(of gust wind, breezes, buzzing sounds and sea waves), a woman humming into tunes that are melodic but hell scary and sometimes singings in my native languages, seing scary things, but...the worst part was when I got short of breath and I could feel as if something was throttling me till my tongue comes out and it was weird that my upper body was "lifted" as if I did it myself...Last year, I felt as if part of me was been pulled through my toes twice, I felt uplifted and it shocked me to see my self sleeping behind me while it happened and all of the sudden I had been pulled into my physical body,..All of those mentioned happened during my sleep paralysis and I'm truly concious each time...Yeah, they might sound preposterous and I don't relate this to evil/demonic disturbances..The only temporary cure that I'm able to do is to let my mind/heart "say"(I was immobilized) "Bismillahirahmanirahim"...Basically I would wake up screaming...
