So, the first time I ever experienced sleep paralysis I was like ~5-7yr old. I was at my grandma's house staying the night. Had a nightmare of a stereotypical witch on a broom chasing me. Ofc I was running, but not fast enough. When the witch finally caught me I 'woke up' but unable to move or open my eyes, couldn't talk or scream.

Still in an in-between state of consciousness and lucid dream, I was finally able to jerk a leg or arm. That seemed to finally kick start the rest of me. Sat up breathing heavily, but further horror ensued. My eyes had been completely encrusted shut, from tears I guess? I had to physically pry my eyes open.

Years later it would happen again to various degrees. At one point it would happen so often it just got annoying. I'd be fully aware of what was happening. Sometimes I could open my eyes and look around, but could never move my head.

It's been probably close to 20 years since it's happened to me. I don't miss it, much.

- Did you ever notice a cause? For me it's going to sleep dehydrated, or extremely tired or both

  Unfortunately no. Seemed completely random. Maybe just hormones of growing up?

  Sleeping with some light (the blinds not shut completely) was a cause for me, along with stress. No light, not able to see anything waking up, no eldritch horrors in the room and I probably fall asleep again.

- Until you can't control it anymore and every dream is lucid and you're stuck inside your dumb lucid dreams every night like it's a second job.

Somebody ballpark this for me: By weight, how much psychedelic mushrooms can you get with $3500?

10
- usually hear $10/gram though i guess itd depend on region/type. typical dose is maybe 3g? so enough for about 120 people

- And now, LSD is the most potent psychedelic substance on the planet.
  
  1 gram is enough to get 10.000 people high.

  So if I take a whole gram I can get 10000 times higher?

Anyone who's not an influencer who bought it solely for the likes, fully intending to return it, care to chime in about the thing?

This whole "mixed reality experience" thing has me curious: do any of you just add imaginary images to your surroundings in your mind? Just by visualizing?

For example, I have several paintings on my walls that aren't real, but look to me as if they were. I switch them up depending on mood, or just turn them off. Or just basic stuff like having words and numbers floating in front of me as an aid when doing math or planning?
