Well, the biggest element to this is just knowing what it is.

The thing that's so scary about it is that when it happens, most people don't know what's happening.

They don't know what it is.

But once you understand what it is, you usually do have enough consciousness to be able to say, okay, this is sleep paralysis.

It's not going to last.

Let me see what I can do with it.

Sometimes that's all it takes is just knowing.

So it's just, you know, knowledge is power.

Yeah, it never lasts very long.

It can seem like it, but it really doesn't last long.

Your body just, your brain just has to kind of catch up.

It's like, oh, we're awake.

I need to get the body moving.

Okay, so there's a couple things.

It's only happened once to me.

There's a couple things you might be touching on.

One is called shared dreaming, where you and someone else have the same or similar dream on the same night.

And that usually happens to people that are very close, like best friends, sisters, mother, daughter, husband, wife, boyfriend and girlfriend, people that are very, very close.

And you have the same or similar dream because you're dealing with the same issue in some way.

And your subconscious responds in a similar way.
