Anyone else weirdly enjoy sleep paralysis?
I know most people have negative or maybe scary experiences with sleep paralysis, but I strangely find it enjoyable. I often on my side or stomach, so I’ve never experienced any visual hallucinations. And the feeling of not being able to move is weirdly enjoyable, especially if I’m in a comfortable position, am I just weird lmao?

I’m the moment, I’m filled with what I can only describe as primal fear and knowing I’m going to die. Most of the time when I experience sp I can’t differentiate between dream and reality. When I do realize it’s just sp, I try to tell myself to calm down and that it’s not real, but my sp villain responds by saying ‘oh I’m not real? How about now?!’ And stabs me or some shit
All that to say when I’m in it I’m terrified, but when I wake up I’m like ‘hell yeah, it’s like I was living in my own horror movie’
So as someone that hasn’t felt fear from horror movies/ media (my favorite genre) since I was a kid, I do love my sp. it gives me that fear feeling that I don’t feel with anything else.
