Health / Ever Felt Like You Are Being Tied Down Even After Waking? See Why. by Tunchi101(m): 7:23pm On Jan 23, 2017
First of all let me get this out of the way; NO BE WITCHCRAFT DEY CAUSE AM! cheesy

Its called Temporary SP

Sleep paralysis is the terrifying feeling of being held down after just waking up or going to sleep. You can’t move or scream, and sometimes this paralysis is accompanied with the certainty that someone –or something — is in the room.
.
Quite simply, sleep paralysis is one of the most horrifying experiences in life, because we feel awake but can’t believe what is happening to us.
.
TSP OCCURS WHEN OUR MIND WAKES UP FASTER THAN OUR BODY
.
Quite simply, sleep paralysis is one of the most horrifying experiences in life, because we feel awake but can’t believe what is happening to us.
.
The truth is, sleep paralysis is a biological event and there is nothing to be worried about. You’re not dying. It’s a hiccup in the brain’s chemical soup as we transition from sleep to wakefulness.
.
Recurrent sleep paralysis can often be prevented by attending to lifestyle choices, but making new habits can take time.
.
.
So how do you wake up from sleep paralysis tonight?
.
Here I compiled 9 ways to get out now
.
Note: Because this is such a personal thing, some of these tactics will work for you, and others won’t. Choose the ones that make the most sense to you intuitively. Think of these strategies as tools in a toolbox to bring out when the conditions are right. Make a plan and resolve to remember it for the next time you wake up in sleep paralysis.
.
1. Don’t Fight It
.
If you feel like you are being held down and you can’t move, do not fight back. This actually will intensify the experience. Not only is fighting back likely to increase the feelings of being held down (so much that it may seem like you are being crushed), but fighting back will also increase the fear, thus triggering the emotional centers of the brain and strengthening this lucid nightmare. Controlling fear is the most important skill during these moments.
.
2. Surrender and Go with the Flow
.
Instead, try to relax when you notice SP starting to happen. Prepare an affirmation like “This is SP and I am okay.” If you feel pressure on your chest, see if you can “go with” the pressure rather than against it. It’s like winning a fight by having no resistance. For example, for me, I often feel like I’m being pushed into the mattress when I have SP. I let myself go, and mentally “pull” in the direction I am being pushed. What happens is I then “pop” into a full-on dream, or I can wake up directly.
.
3. Wiggle your Toe
.
Another excellent tactic that works for many people is to try to move an extremity, such as a finger or a toe. Most of the feelings of paralysis are in the belly, chest, and throat. So focus all you attention on the toe and try to move it back and forth. In many cases, this will break the paralysis.
.
4. Clench your Fist
.
This is a variation of the toe wiggle method. Clench and unclench your fist..
.
5. Focus on your Breath
.
An easy way to stop these nightmares is to do some controlled breathing. Controlled breathing does several things at once. For starters, it lessens the feelings of chest pain that sometimes accompany SP. Breathing is autonomic like the heart’s beating or digestion, so it’s not paralyzed like the big muscles in our arms, chest and legs. But breath can be controlled with attention or be affected by severe fear, which may be why SP sufferers “forget” to breathe when under attack. If you can control your breath, you can control your fear. Simply draw your breath in at a normal rate, and exhale fully, using all of your lung capacity. Notice that you can breathe fully without obstruction. This technique will keep you calm as the SP runs its course and then you will wake up without any trouble. A few moments of focused breathing with a strong intention to wake up is effective.
.
6. Lean into Love to Find Courage
.
Now is also the time to lean into unconditional love. For many, the surest path is in religious or spiritual beliefs. Regardless, focus on a figure that you admire and love. Think of someone who calms you down—someone who you associate with peace, love and safety. This could be Jesus, the Dali Lama, or someone you know personally. In my first SP nightmare when I was fourteen years old, I thought about the love and respect I had for a girl in my class. Embarrassing but true! It worked: the feelings of oppression and evil dissipated immediately. In this case, true love really does conquer all.
.
7. Getting Help from your Sleep Partner
.
If someone shares your bed, you can tell them about your SP attacks and what to look for when you are having a nightmare. For example, my roommate used to shake me awake whenever I began to breath heavily and irregularly in my sleep. As it turns out, she was waking me up each and every time from an intense SP nightmare. Now when this happens, I tell her not to wake me up, because I actually use SP to go into a lucid dream.
You could also have your partner respond to a verbal request. This only works some of the time, because some people cannot speak in paralysis. But some can. Choose a short word that is easy to say. “Help” is a good choice. When you’re in paralysis, focus your attention on your throat and say “Help.” Don’t try to say it as loud as you can; what may happen is that your imagination will take over and you will only say the word in your dream. Instead, say it forcefully but without screaming.
.
8. Coughing for Help
.
A variation of using your voice is to try to cough into wakefulness. Like breathing, coughing can be autonomic or consciously regulated. By coughing on purpose, you can jar yourself awake.
.
9. Write out the Plan
.
The suggestions above all have helped hundreds of people get out of SP and get some sleep. Not every tactic will work with you. But having too many tactics in your mind can actually be counterproductive. So it is important to make a plan, almost like the fire escape plan you may have for evacuating your family home in case of emergency. Write it out; this will cement the plan in your mind and make it easier to remember when the paralysis comes on strong.
.
10. The Ultimate Method I know — I said 9 ways, but this is the single best way to wake up from sleep paralysis and it’s really in a class of it’s own. When you realize you are in SP, scrunch up your face. In other words, make a face like you just smelled something bad. Snarl and squint. Do this two or three times in a row and the paralysis will break IMMEDIATELY. I’m not sure why it is so effective, but unlike the pinky wiggle, this method is foolproof.
After you wake up, get out of bed immediately and turn on a light. Wash your face with cold water. If you just stay in bed, the chance of sliding right back into sleep paralysis is pretty high.

PRISTINEMUSCLES:
Those foods you are reacting to are allergens, trigering some hyper-sensitivity reactions. I think you are still going to encounter more food allergens asides the ones you listed.
Do fish,beef,chicken or seafoods trigger this reaction?
Your system is very sensitive and you should really watch what goes into your system. Please see a doctor for proper diagnosis and corresponding treatments.
no I dont react to what u listed n I hope I don't. thanks anyways
but how do u knew I might react to some oda food later on?

Health / My Body Has Been Behaving Strange. I'm In Need Of Urgent Advice by Tunchi101(m): 2:29pm On Jan 08, 2017
First, I would really appreciate if there is someone out there with medical experience that can help with the experience I'm about to share.
.
Part 1
Let me give a brief explanation of the type of being I am. From birth, I've never eaten cake of whatsoever kind. I react to it by having really itching lips and I also throw up instantaneously. I also don't eat eggs(boiled or fried) because I also react to it by throwing up; however when I was about 9 years old, my dad forced me to eat fried egg. I vomitted more than 10 times that day but eventually I started eating it. He tried the same for boiled egg but by system just refused it. I am not really happy about this cause my friends make fun of me. Even me myself can't picture what it would be like on my wedding day when me and my wife are to feed ourselves cake.
.
Part 2
From birth, one of my favourite food is amala( black or white). I love this food with every fibre of my being. I have also loved Turkey. Strangely, when I was in my third year in University, something very odd happened when I ordered Amala. 30 minuites after feasting on it, I could suddenly not breath the way a person should. Initially taught it was a funny kind of cold, so I went to get tom tom. Took about 9 of it but all to no avail, instead, my breathing got worst! I had to rush down to the clinic. By the time I was at the clinic, I was struggling to breath with my mouth. For the first time in my life in 20 years, I used an inhaler. Strangely, I felt better almost instantaneously.

I was indeed baffeled , so I decided to stay away from black amala for a while. After a while, I decided to go with ilafun (white amala), I swear, the same thing happened sad. I decided to let go of amala.

We had a dinner night at school and food was in abundance and OMG, the turkeys on the food were looking like they would require super man to lift em cheesy . Me being a: typically African feasted on the on the turkey to the bone marrow. 20 minutes later, it was like I was being choked! I was almost crying that day, not because of my inability to breath but because I knew I probably wouldn't be eating turkey again. I tried taking turkey after some weeks again but the same thing happened.

It was almost unbelievable when I started reacting to dust like I now react to Amala. I went to a military secondary school and dust never affected me in anyway.

Part 3
For those who knows this drug 'ibucap', I'm sure they know its very effective. I personally can testify to it but anytime I take the drug,my eyes would swell up like two overblown basket balls has been stuck in them. I stopped using the drug, however for a few years now, anytime I am ill, my eye balls swells up.


I was really devastated by all this unusually experience especailly because I knew if they continued, they might affect my future plans. I decided to see my university clinic matron and what she told me that day almost tore me from the inside out. She said 'people that were born asthmatic still had hope of being cured later in life but there was no hope at all for me since I'm displaying the symptoms in my 20's.

NAIRALANDERS!
I am really worried and I don't have enough to go to a standard medical hospital for a full checkup but I would really appreciate your advice on any of the above issues . Thanks and God Bless!
