I have similar weird stuff happening to me at night, I won't go into detail on here, not yet anyway, but mine involves sleep paralysis episodes that
turn into full on 'visions' of a far distant future, a massive futuristic city, ETs, time travel, serious breaches of the laws of physics, and things
even the most logical of people would find hard to get their heads around.
So in a short reply, I understand, but as far as an explanation, I'll do my best.
The human brain is a very complex organ, and sleep is even more of a complex thing that very few if any fully understand the mechanics of.
As an open minded person I cannot dismiss anything, including external supernatural or even just natural (we don't know half of what nature is capable
of) forces (aliens, spirits, time slips etc), but I also cannot dismiss the power of the human brain and how little we truly understand this organ and
So in short, yes it could be aliens messing with you, or a spirit, but it could also be your brain using parts of it's self it would not use in your
waking life. We are said to only access a very small part of our true brain capacity, so who knows what our brains are up to while we sleep.
Sleep it's self is also a very mysterious, complex human body function which we still do not fully understand.
Some basic advice would be to:
Reduce your brain stimulation about an hour before bedtime. Turn OFF all technology in the house, phones, tablets, computers and TVs as these can all
hype our brains up.
Reduce your intake of caffeine, even if you get to sleep with caffeine in your system, which is impossible for me, it can still have a stimulating
effect on your brain while you sleep, making you more prone to strange dreams, sleep paralysis etc.
Reduce all other chemical substances (apart from if your doctor has prescribed them and told you when to take them), such as nicotine or any other
drugs before bedtime.
Reduce alcohol before bedtime, you may think it makes you sleep better, but it certainly does NOT and it cant do any harm to reduce it if you do like
Try to avoid sleep aids, again they may make you fall asleep faster, but can cause all kinds of sleep disturbances, from sleep paralysis to vivid
dreams to confusion, they are best avoided unless a doctor advises otherwise, and still even then be very wary of these medications.
Try cutting down on dairy, this can effect sleep, it certainly does with me, the whole 'milk before bed' thing is a cue for my brain to go flipside
while I sleep lol.
Sorry if this is not much help, maybe I will tell my story one day but I am not going to hyjack your thread with it
