Hello /x/.
About two years ago I woke up in the middle of the night. I woke up to a low frequency humming sound. I opened my eyes and saw a large shadow being lying on top of me. The humming sound became louder and louder and I couldn't move.
It was like I was forcibly held in place by the entity. I could not move a muscle except for my eyes. I looked up and saw a pair of eyes and teeth. I panicked and tried desperately to move. but could not.
My heart started racing, like if I had just been on a run, and I felt true fear.
The entity got closer to my face and the humming got even louder, almost unbearable.
Suddenly the humming and being was completely gone. And I was still wide awake. I could move again and turned on the lights.
I sat with the lights on for 3 hours in my bed wondering what the hell just happened to me.
Now, two years later, I have started waking up in the night, with the same feeling of fear. It is a very special feeling, not comparable to anything else. I have not seen the entity though, but it worries me that it might return.
Does anyone have any idea of what happened to me 2 years ago? I do not have experience with these kinds of incidents.

Look up sleep paralysis, it's pretty common. The demon shit's a common meme for it too, just your imagination

Sleep paralysis of the sporadic kind. It wont happen to you to often but you are more likely to hallucinate while having an episode
Not an /x/ poster here, just a tourist but... I've been through this too. It's sleep paralysis. I saw shadowy figures, felt pressure on my chest, movements etc while being unable to move. First time really spooked me out until I learned what it was.
Here's a friendly tip: Sleep on your side, not on your back. Take care.

But it felt so real and has only happened once in my life. I still get goosebumps thinking about it. It is hard to accept that I hallucinated.
Is it usually triggered by something or is it a random occurrence for people?

Just google it. It can be random or caused by things like sleeping at random times

my sleep paralysis hits whenever i feel really stressed, best thing to do whenever i wake up after one is turn on a light and take a few moments to calm myself down before i get hit with another one
also during one try to move, i find that helps me break out of it faster

I take a few sharp breaths until it shakes me out of it. Usually I can move my finger a bit but it doesn't do anything. I've heard that some lucky people can still kind of shout for help too

Sleep paralysis, you dumb fuck.

yeah this is sleeping paralysis, after 5-6 times you will get used to it. Try not to sleep on your back. Sleep on your side, if you do this the chances of sleeping paralysis are way less. Trust me I'm an expert.

if you get it sleeping on your back youve probably got blocked airways so go to a doctor and get your shit checked for sleep apnea.
Once i started to fix that shit my sleep improved 10 fold and no more paralysis evaaa

Have you ever experienced it? It's not a meme, or imaginary. I've had shared experiences with others.
