I don't know if this is a medical condition, but I wake up to sleep paralysis nearly every morning.

Did you just succumb to it and fall back asleep or did you fight the paralysis?
I had to kind of fight it.. Lol maybe because I was scared

I've had sleep paralysis.

Only ever had it if I slept towards a corner of my room at my old house.

I used to see shit when when my eyes would open and sometimes felt as there were multiple presences.

All good now. My new place feels much safer because I never experience it anymore :)
So in a sense sleep paralysis is similar to Lucid Dreaming?

I heard Lucid Dreaming was one of the scariest but most cool experience :D

No, all genders get it.

Researchers don't understand why it happens yet.
Researches actually understand some of it. It happens when your mind wakes up but your brain hasn't told your body to wake up. Our brain actually stops our body from moving in our sleep to stop us from acting out dreams in the real world. So when sleep paralysis occurs your mins has waken but not your body. According to scientists it is not supernatural and is completely normal.

Well its not really scary. I had it a few times. It happens when you know you are in a dream which allows you to do whatever you want in your dream world. It usually happens when you are not in deep sleep. Sleep paralysis is actually connected to lucid dream. I got one after I briefly had a lucid dream.

Have you ever got up really fast and then lost vision for 30
Seconds ? That's scary, it feels like isolation ...... Fuarrrr
Once I suddenly got up from the living room and went straight back into my room. My eyes blacked out and I dropped to the floor in my room and didn't know what to do for about a minute. It's actually not scary, more like a pleasant kind of weird.

Lucid dreaming is a great experience so long as you don't think up stuff that scares you.

Flying is a good one. Very fun, ahahah.

Lucid dreaming is scary as hell when you know you're in a nightmare and can't wake up.
