Understand My Dreams

Dreams paralyzed

In my dream I lived in a dark manor. I had a family but they were all dark charaters. It started like I was watching a horror film, I saw a man become possessed and murder another member of the family. Then his face contorted and he himself died. Then I was running and there were three cats talking to me and they convinced a random truck driver to give me a ride out of town. So I go but the demon that haunts the family follows me and possesses a man at a gas station we stop at. He chases me down, picks me up and throws me into a glass casement in the store. Then I woke up in a bathroom in the old manor and I felt the demon come over me. It felt like that feeling you get when you stand up too fast and you get lightheaded. Only it did not go away, I could not control my own body or speak. The demon takes me down a dark hall and we enter a room. There is a woman sleeping in the bed as we apporached. We grabbed her and shook her hard, it was my mother from my real life. I managed to get out a few words from my paralyzed lips, "Help me... I'm possessed.." then I woke up.

I am about to wake up. I hear my alarm and reach to turn it off but I can’t move. I can’t even open my eyes. I realize I’m paralyzed and I try in vain to scream for help but I can’t make a sound. My head feels foggy and unfocused, like I’m of no substance. My body feels like an iron prison and my consciousness is struggling against it, trying to get the two to connect and move and free me. It’s as if my brain is trapped by my body. I can think properly and flutter my eyelids a bit but otherwise I cannot move. It terrifies me and I scream a silent, mental scream. No one even knows I’m screaming but me. When I finish screaming, I try to calm down and relax, thinking that maybe my paralysis will end when my struggling does. I wait, consciousness still, for what feels like forever. I try to move again to no avail. I remember in a nightmare I had when I was younger, I squeezed my eyes shut and was able to wake myself up. I decide to try that again. I focus on my eyes, squeeze them shut, and open. Nothing. Again. Again. I can’t move. I squeeze my eyes shut as hard as I can, and open them. This time I actually wake up.
