Do you have a fear of animals crawling on you? Cause that might be why you see that when you get sleep paralysis. I used to get night terrors when I was little cause I had no control of my spiritual side, so I had to start manifesting it away. Now I rarely ever get them!

Actually, I think itās common to see stuff on you when you have sleep paralysis.
I once semi got it, I was awake but very tired or something and hallucinated. I saw a bunch of blood on the floor- which really freaked me out and then it just faded away.

Yeah it is, but I was explaining why he might be seeing that, you saw blood cause you have a fear of it.

I donāt really have a fear of blood, it just grosses me out when itās in large quantities.

Nope, I actually quite like spiders and tarantulas especially. I love animals of all kinds, but that doesnāt stop me from seeing monstrous dog creatures when I have sleep paralysis, itās just subconscious stuff.
Also Iām very in touch with my spiritual side, I did kung-fu for four years. It comes with meditation and inner peace stuff :3

Because you like them, your mind is probably more prone to create them.

Could be? Usually theyāre mutated or monstrous, so if it is a fear, itās a fear of perverted nature if anything

Having to see something you love try to look terrifying.

Thatās dumb, I was the shortest in my kung-fu class, besides my teacher was like 4 foot 9 xD
And yeah, Iām just extra prone to the hallucination side of sleep paralysis for some reason. Maybe mental trauma? idk, it just happens. Iām kinda used to it but how scary it is never really goes away. Night terrors are different, theyāre not particularly tied to fears? More so just something that shouldnāt be there from my understanding

Hallucinations usually happen because you wake up but your mind is not done dreaming yet, so the hallucinations are the extra bits in the dreams. There are a lot of sleep cycles, so you must get sleep paralysis when youāre in the middle of a cycle.

I know the main theories behind it, but to be fair. We donāt actually know how dreams or sleep really works yet.
Itās one of the main things stumping the scientific community at the moment

The science behind the human brain still has a hell of a lot to figure out

I actually did a whole study for it for a project I did. There are scientists out there who have done the experiments and do know a lot about dreaming and sleeping, not everything, but a lot.
