Sleep Paralysis: When Your Mind Traps You
Have you ever felt a heavy weight on your chest, unable to breathe? Maybe you've been through sleep paralysis. This terrifying experience occurs when your mind wakes up before your body, leaving you aware but immobilized. It can be a deeply frightening experience, often accompanied by fantastical visions.
During sleep paralysis, your body is in a state of REM sleep, the stage associated with dreaming. Normally, our muscles are paralyzed during this stage to prevent us from performing our dreams. However, in sleep paralysis, this paralysis continues even when we become conscious. This can lead to a feeling of being trapped and helpless. The feeling can be so intense that it can trigger panic attacks.
While sleep paralysis is not dangerous, it can be a common problem for some people. Stress, anxiety, and sleep deprivation are often linked to episodes of sleep paralysis. If you encounter frequent or disturbing episodes, it's important to consult a healthcare professional.
A Crimson Threshold
Deep within the thick forest, a path appeared before me. It was not marked, nor could I remember ever having seen it before.

There, before me, stood a house, its paint faded and peeling, revealing the eerie truth beneath: a door, painted a shocking red.
The view of this red door sent a shiver down my spine. It was as if it pulsed with an unnatural energy, drawing me in with its magnetism. I moved towards the door, my hand trembling, my heart pounding against my ribs like a trapped bird.
As I pressed the cold metal doorknob, a feeling of intense dread washed over me. I hesitated, for a moment, but the magnetic force of the door was too strong to resist.
