Experience description:

I had sleep paralysis (I get it like every night) and usually I can get out of it right away, but this time I couldn’t. Someone told me the way they got out was moving their whole body at once so I decided to try something new. So I moved all my limbs and they came out of my body. My head and torso weren’t though and I think it’s because I forgot to move it. But anyways, I noticed my body felt SO LIGHT and SO EASY to move. I kept putting my hand in the air and I couldn’t see it but I knew where it was and I could feel it. I was also aware of where my real arm was. I kept moving my legs so fast, it’s impossible to move as fast as I did when you’re alive. The last thing I did was I was going to sit up so I put my elbow on the bed and it went through my bed.
