Ugh, I just had sleep paralysis again.
This is maybe the third time I've had it, and this time it was filled with auditory and scent hallucination. Like, I could hear a TV blaring (we don't even own a TV) and smell someone cutting up onions. (No onions were being cut up.)
I keep trying to move and dreaming I had moved and then prying my eyes open to see I still had not moved. I was utterly locked into position.
Finally I tried yelling for Dr Skull. I think I dreamed I was yelling at first, but then I did actually yell for him. And after that I was able to move.
About ten minutes later he came hobbling into the living room, where I was still lying on the couch. "Were you calling for me?"
Anyway, 0/10, don't like that.

I am used to having sleep paralysis, especially when I'm (not quite) woken up by external forces. I find it helps to try to start with wiggling my fingers and/or toes. Once I focus on that I'm generally able to actually wiggle them after a bit and then regain control of my body. Trying to open my eyes or to say something just leads to frustration. Good luck! -- n&m
Thanks for the tip! I'll try that next time
