Sleep Paralysis – My First Experience
Saturday, September 19th, 2009
This is a reenactment I made in GMod of what my first ever experience with this interesting little psychological phenomena called sleep paralysis. It happened a couple of years ago when I feel asleep with the TV on in the other room. I have been having them ever since. Usually a few times a month or so, depending on my sleep pattern.
Its a common condition where your brain is literally half asleep and half conscious. Sometimes but not always accompanied by hallucinations, some more terrifying then others.
I have it happen to me regularly and I feel obligated to have such an experience. I know there are many others out there that experience it and are terrified of it, it haunts them and makes it difficult to sleep.
I just want to say stop fearing it, and learn about it. We don’t know a whole lot about our brain and I think this is a huge insight of its power and what it can do. It certainly opens up to lucid dreaming and if you learn to control your fear of it you can have yourself floating around the room or run down your street and take off flying.
Anyways, post comments or video responses of your experiences. I love to hear about them. =]

Getting prepped by Vlad, the scoring technician, at New York Hospital Cornell Medical Center Sleep Lab for a sleep study to evaluate my apnea and titrate a cpap treatment.
Special thanks to Vlad for participating in the video. When my camera battery died, he let me borrow his (he has the same camera) and changed memory cards and setup shots. And, he is natural on camera – A star is born!
Also thanks to him and the other techs at NY Hospital Sleep Center for their humanity and competence.

Stop Sleep Paralysis 1 of 15
Sunday, September 13th, 2009
This is a video about sleep paralysis, and how to stop it.
The first half is a collection of testimonies from youtube from various people sharing their experiences with sleep paralysis. .
The second half is a collection of testimonies of people that have ended sleep paralysis taken from an unlikely source: “Alien Abduction Crisis Centers of America” ( http://aaccoa.org )
While the two types of experiences are different in some cases, in others the similarities are undeniable. The interesting part is that they are both stopped the same way.
These experiences are very different apparently we can stop sleep paralysis, or alien abduction the same way, listen to the accounts of people from all kinds of different backgrounds tell you their stories.
There is Hope
Thanks to Joe Jordan and aaccoa for all their love and work.
