If it helps, to lessen the risk of getting sleep paralysis, don't sleep on your back. I actually will sleep under my blankets so that if and when I do get it, it won't bother me with visual hallucinations, just auditory.

Beautiful! I love the subtleness and gentlenessΒ of your shaping and colouring.

Oh my goodness! So you were the one that made this! Someone showed this to me and never told me where! I have found you!

I was just about to say this reminds me of my sleep paralysis and then I read the description and was like, oh no way! I actually know of a lot of artists who have that problem. Maybe we are just all messed up in a similar way. Β

I feel your pain. V.VΒ I've had sleep paralysis before, and it's utterly terrifying.

Sleep paralysis is an uncommon condition that often times includes the hallucination and visitation of 'demon' like creatures. That being said people have nightmares to prepare themselves mentally for the real world so it will only make you stronger!

It reminds me of Erebus, I would really like to see your interpretation of Erebus. This is really good btw!!

Absolutely splendid work on this.
I'm curious, is the beast a personification of the night being like a monster and the day is personified as the beauty?

Wonderful work, also no you're not. Its happened to me also. Nothing creeper then not being able to move while being awake.

Oh god.. I fucking hate it worst experience ever

Oh I have many times ... worst time was when I halucinatedΒ a woman dressed in sakura pink victorian attire standing next to to me looking at me..... the best way to prevent that I found was to sleep on my side and not face up . Hope that helps , and yes this drawing really represents sleep paralysis D:

I also suffer from sleep paralysis can be pretty terrifying.

Wow, I have watched and loved your art for quite a while, but I think this is one of the most compelling out of your recent work (which is all fantastic--this is just my favorite). You know how to handle composition and contrast so well, and you have such a unique style that is easy to set apart. When I saw that this was about sleep paralysis, it gave me a whole new perspective on the piece. Sleep paralysis is scary and for me, it comes about when I don't have enough sleep and/or am very stressed. Make sure you're sleeping a good amount! In fact, sleeping more than enough is probably better than not enough. I hope you don't have to deal with stupid sleep paralysis any longer.

THIS IS SO BEAUTIFUL. thank you for existing, my imagination is your friend.

Hey, I really love your contrast in color here, really brings up the anxiety and frightening aura from the beast
For the sleep paralysis, I'd say check your sleeping position. Try not to position your head on the pillow too high that you ended up 'raising your head'Β
Get well soon

I recently started getting sleep paralysis too. Β Not fun. Β The picture is really well done, though. Β Great job of leading the viewer's eye around the image.

That perfectly expresses the fear and imagery that sleep paralysis brings. I have to say, this piece had great emotional appeal and made my skin crawl a bit when I first viewed it. As beautiful as this piece is, it is almost too creepy for me to keep staring (almost). Congratulations on capturing the element of fear that sleep paralysis brings. I get sleep paralysis a lot too, and I can sympathize with you. Hope you don't have to endure them for too long.

This is sick!! I love this omg
But seriously where'd you get that picture of me //shotshot
Anywhooo, this is a really awesome concept and the contrast between all the sharp edges on the "Night" and all of the softer features on the girl looks really cool all together. Great work ^^
and omg I feel you on the sleep paralysis. Like what the what, brain, I'm awake now, quit this madness.

this is beautiful ;w;
sleep paralysis isn't uncommon - up to as many as 4 in every 10 people may experience sleep paralysis. It can be caused by many things - a lack of sleep, a change in sleeping schedule, from sleeping on your back, use of certain medicines (such as some ADHD medicines), stress, and a number of other things. If it happens a lot, you may have isolated recurrent sleep paralysis. Usually there is no need to treat it, but if you're concerned about it you can talk to a doctor about it. Β If you don't sleep enough or your sleep schedule is very messy, you can try improving your sleep habits - try to make sure you get 6-8 hours of sleep every night if possible. You can also try sleeping in different positions - it may help stop it from happening.
but if you wake up with it, you can always try to wiggle your fingers and/or toes, blink, scrunch up your face, any little movements that you can make that will help wake your body up

If you move your face muscles, like try and scrunch up your face or snarl, it can help break you out of paralysis. It works for me!

Whoa, this is beautiful. This reminds me of a mixture of sweet dreams and nightmares.Β

I get sleep paralysis too haha. The trick is to calm down, accept what is happening and try to relax. Concentrate on just moving the tips of your fingers. You have to give your body time to realise that you're awake.

Awesome painting, represents perfectly what it feels like!
And don't worry, you're not the only one and it's (kind of) normal, try not to worry too much.

Beautiful picture. Also, you aren't alone, I have sleep paralysis too and it's way more horrifying than any nightmares >_<

This art and the concept.. I love it! It says so much about the phenomenon and the experience and I feel it. Oh my god, I FEEL IT!
omg i get sleep paralysis often too..! it is one of the scariest things ever and i experience it a lot... i try to wake myself up as quickly as i can, and end up hurting my neck a lot due to all the craning i do.. o.o

Sleep paralysis is terrible. When it happens I commonly just wait it out, it sure is creepy but they're just hallucinations and can't hurt you. (also great drawing!)

I love every single one of your pics - and that is not something I say often...they're just so amazing and fascinating. I always get lost in them somehow and I get lots of ideas for fairy tales
