#asleep

Estoy sintiendo tantas cosas al mismo tiempo que sólo puedo llorar.

-Asleep.

“Así es la oportunidad de amar, con riesgos, pero no hay culpas, simplemente apuestas por algo que puede funcionar o no”.

-Asleep.

Era como volver a nacer, cada vez que me abrazabas, cuando escuchaba tu melodiosa voz. Así era, hasta que te marchaste con tu voz, y mi alma comenzó a morir poco a poco.

-Asleep.

Tengo miedo, no puedo mentirte, ni puedo mentirle a mi alma y mi corazón. Tengo miedo, de volver a nuestro lugar, de regresar a aquellos días de lluvia donde nos dejamos ir, tengo miedo a recordar.

-Asleep.

Hi tumblr o/ it’s been a while.

Things you should know about Sleep Paralysis

Before I begin, you ought to know what sleep paralysis is. When you sleep you go through two cycles, REM and NREM. REM stands for “rapid eye movement” and during this phase your body is completely paralyzed but your eyes are moving around under the lids. NREM is “non rapid eye movement” and during this time your body moves about but your eyes are still. You need to go through both cycles numerous times for a proper nights sleep. Sleep paralysis occurs when you wake up during REM and can be alarming to someone who isn’t used to it. But don’t worry, as someone who has gotten it chronically since I was a young child, I am going to teach you how to get through it.

First of all, you might feel like you’re suffocating, but don’t panic. You don’t have control of your body right now, and that includes your lungs. When you sleep, your breathing is heavily decreased. So just calm down, it’s ok, you can breathe.

Don’t be idle! So many people just lay there and expect sleep paralysis to go away. But that isn’t how this works. You MUST wake yourself up and yes it will be uncomfortable. It feels like reactivating your nerves, so it isn’t pleasant, but it isn’t really painful either. Just get through it, and try to move, you could be stuck for HOURS if you don’t.

On that note, there are ways to make the waking up process easier. Try to move one part of the body at a time. Maybe start just trying to move your finger then slowly progess to “waking up” the rest of your body. Also if you simply can’t get whatever part to move try somewhere else. I have had times where I tried to move my arms but they wouldn’t budge, only to find out that moving my head was much easier and woke up my entire body.

Don’t immediately go back to sleep! There is a very high chance that doing so will make you return to sleep paralysis. I have made this mistake more times than I’d like to admit, so it’s ok, but still, get up. You don’t have to do anything big, maybe just go grab some water or read a little bit (or whatever else you feel like) before attempting to return to sleep.

For the love of god DON’T OPEN YOUR EYES!! You’ll hallucinate.I’ve seen some weird shit when my eyes are open, and although I’m usually too preoccupied to be scared about the surreal demonic shit I see at the foot of my bed, for lots of people it’s terrifying, so I recommend that you keep your eyes shut.

Sorry it took so long for me to make this post! I’ve been kinda busy. But I sincerely hope this helps. Don’t stress over sleep paralysis, you’re going to be fine and once you have it for a while it becomes more of an inconvenience than an emergency. Sweet dreams!

Barbarossa’s awakening by Hermann Wislicenus

“Legend says he is not dead, but asleep with his knights in a cave in the Kyffhäuser mountain in Thuringia, and that when the ravens cease to fly around the mountain he will awake and restore Germany to its ancient greatness. According to the story, his red beard has grown through the table at which he sits. His eyes are half closed in sleep, but now and then he raises his hand and sends a boy out to see if the ravens have stopped flying.”

“My thoughts are all over the place as I fall asleep, and images of clouded roses and angry green eyes flow through my dreams.”

~ Anna Todd

ich wache auf und will wieder schlafen

denn nur schlafend kann ich mich halbwegs ertragen

like, ridiculously realistic mad vivid nightmares. like, walking in on your man in the act of cheating on you with another woman he actually knows irl nightmares. they do say your dreams are your biggest fears. but damn, now i can’t fall back asleep. the mind is the worst enemy. it truly is. even unconsciously.

[drinks as much fruit punch powerade as possible before falling asleep so i don’t wake up puking]

i’m drunk too but holy hell, all i care about is making sure he feels okay & knows i’m there for him. i comforted him, rubbed my thumb against his cheek & told him how much i loved him until he fell asleep, i think he’ll be ok. poor baby.. i also keep checking to make sure he’s still breathing every time i stop hearing him making loud breathing noises. i love this boy so much ♡
