Family and a potrait: What is it?

Hi folks,

I am new at all this. At the research level right now. But I experienced something of which I could not define:

After travelling for like 2 days, sleepless and exhausted, I climbed to my bed and closed my eyes. Just before going to sleep, I heard my family calling. Their voices was so clear that it sounded as if they were at the next room. (By the way, I was 10,000 km away from my parents). They were calling my name, I tried to get up but couldn’t. My body was too heavy. Then they started to whin and ask me why I was not answering .Then voices slowly faded away and I saw the bed facing the one I was lying with some details. Then a potrait appeared on the imaginary bed, Da Vinci type. My eyes were closed and I was fully conscious while these were happening. Then I opened my eyes and everything was gone. What was this?

sounds like sleep paralysis to me… when in that state hallucinations are very common, and once you break out of it they disappear.

Sounds like you were on your way to a Lucid Dream, WILD style.

Sleep deprivation does miracles to WILD.Posts above are right.
If you ever cant afford lsd just dont sleep 48 hrs and close your eyes:)
