I never had any idea this was so common! hundred-peons you described my experience almost EXACTLY, but I've never had any visual or auditory hallucinations nor have I felt like it was really some outside force/being/presence/whatever influencing me. But at the time it definitely scares the shit out of me!!! And I do have this overwhelming, terrifying thought that I'm in some serious danger, but the feeling is not lucid, detailed, or specific, and I usually fall back to sleep despite this feeling. Although sometimes I'm able to jump up and turn on the light and then I'm freaked out for quite a while. Happens maybe once every few months, it hasn't happened to me in about 6 months tho. Well thanks, at least I know what this is now, and maybe I won't be freaked out as much next time. I'm not sure but It seems to happen more when I'm under a lot of stress.
