I have some issue, I hope someone can tell me about this....

This doesn't happen regularly but once in a year sometime.... Sometime 2-3 times a month... I mean not regular.

Ok let me tell what happens to me... Generally it happens during morning time... I'm half awake and I know whats happening outside like birds chirping, people talking walking, vehicles moving(whatever is happening outside in real)... I mean I'm almost awake but mine eyes are closed. Then what happens is, I notice that someone comes towards me... I can feel someone is walking towards me(footsteps), then comes to my bed and lies over me... Then what happens is I cannot move my entire body.. It feels like my whole body is paralysed.
Since this happens when I'm half awake, If someone is nearby me I try to call them but not a single word comes out of me.

This happens when I'm half awake, I can know whats happening and whos around me.. What I cannot do is take that thing off me.. This lasts for about 1 min or sometime more. And this happens when I'm sleeping facinf upward. This never happens when m sleeping other way like aside or facing down.

Has anyone experienced similar thing... Is this a kind of health disorder or just natural thing?

Its called sleep paralysis if not that then its a jinn of some sort that explains the odd presence etc what id suggest is dont sleep on your back its not recommended and always recite over yourself ie recite blow into your hands and wipe it all over yourself as well as this if your muslim make sure to always sleep with wudhu, and again refrain from sleeping on your back.

I am 99% certain this is sleep paralysis

I once had a lucid dream of creating a hammer out of thin air and then making Carmen Electra appear naked ready for doing. Pretty cool.

I was just trying to say that lucid dreaming isn't at all as easy as some people say, like in the above article, "sleep paralysis" within 20 minutes is not something that happens to me after 2 hours and apparently "sleep paralysis" is part of the experience before a lucid dream so it's something you will have to experience anyway so I'm not really sure what you're trying to put through with your reply.

Nope, lucid dreaming doesn't need to be connected to sleep paralysis. I've had few lucid dreams, and in the dream I suddenly realize I'm dreaming. I remember everything was so real, but impossible (gravity, buildings etc.)...
Once I had sleep paralysis, that happened somehow accidentally too, but I knew what it is so I wasn't so scared when I saw ghosts etc..

I lucid dream all the time. It's cool.

But if it's a WILD (Wake Induced Lucid Dream), you'll definitely go through sleep paralysis. WILD is something that I've been trying, only a few times though because it gets boring after a few hours of trying to keep your mind clear while laying in bed and not falling asleep.

Cool thread, I believe I have experienced lucid dreams but at the time I really didn't have an understanding of what I was experiencing. I'm going to try being more proactive; I think there is some real potential to do some deep self-analysis. Thanks!

I really dislike it because you can't move and it feels like somebody is by you... I can't even open my eyes when I lucid dream

The only time I've ever managed this is when I wake up early and go back to sleep. This way it only takes a few minutes to go through the whole process.

I'm actually really excited to see Remee, I contributed to it and can't wait to get one. The problem with lucid dreaming is that it's frivolous and fun but a lot of the ways you induce LDs can be rough on your sleep. That's why now I pretty much only have them randomly when something triggers it. With Remee, you can improve your success rate without sacrificing your sleeping time which is pretty cool.
