Nightmare

My Nightmare

            One time I had the worst nightmare imaginable. It wasn’t even only just a nightmare. I constantly suffer from sleep paralysis. It’s the feeling of being paralyzed when you are technically asleep but your aware of being asleep and feel awake. My dream consisted of being trapped in a small room that constantly decreased in size. I hate being in small places so this was not good. I realized I was awake halfway through this dream and tried to wake up. I couldn’t though and soon realized that I could not move. I was paralyzed. I tried to thrash around but could not and this  caused me to panic. This happens on occasion but this time it was especially bad because I was panicky. I calmed myself down and just decided to try to control my dream. This is called lucid dreaming. I have been able to do this before. I changed my nightmare and I was all better.
