Somewhat claustrophobic here, and I have no problems at all with SP. Makes for an easy LD so I’m always happy to get it. My immediate response is to try and break out of it (it’s sort of instinctive as it feels so unnatural) but I quickly override that.
Ill have to make sure I think of that every time I find myself in SP now 
I just love waking up in SP. That’s the most ideal time for a DEILD. Relax & enjoy the feeling, keep conscious, wait 10 seconds on average, and you are in a (lucid) dream.
Update: So I have had a bunch of LDs due to waking up in SP and just going with the flow since my last reply here*.
Its a seriously strange feeling, at first it was kind of freaky but I now very much enjoy it…lol but I can easily induce an LD this way, almost every time. I don’t get very many visuals, I do frequently hear sounds during the transition, but once I submerge I can then plan what my dream environment should be like or just wait for my brain to come up with one.
A couple of times my real hearing didn’t switch to dream hearing, so while I was jammin out in an LD I could hear music my computer was playing, it actually bugged the crap out of me so I purposely kept leaving the LD back into SP(awake) and tried to submerge my body even “deeper”. It seemed to work a little but I ended up waking myself up entirely.
But it seems that I wake up in SP in 80% of my naps. Ive gotten pretty used to SP to the point that it is very enjoyable.
I’ve never induced SP willingly, although I do enter it accidentally when I wake up, usually after a nightmare. Sometimes, the experience is incredibly frightening and I can feel “things” touch me and breath over me and sometimes it’s quite relaxing and it’s the gateway to a lucid dream. On one occasion I laughed to myself while I was paralysed, thinking “Ha, is this the best you can do? You can’t scare me!” But the funny thing was, SP intensified at that point. I still stayed strong, and I think I went into a dream from that point. I’ve found that LDs induced by sleep paralysis are very vivid in comparison to regular DILDs. On all of my DEILDs, I’ve been blown away by the realism of my dreams.
And I agree with SamBamboo - SP can be very enjoyable. Once, I had a sensation where I was falling through the air at extreme speed. It was more exhilerating than it was scary!
I rarely get visuals in SP, the worst one I ever had was lying in my bed in the pitch black while a figure wearing a black coat with a hood stared at me. What was strange, was that my vision was like watching a lost-footage horror film. Even though I have my eyes tightly closed in SP, I can still see vague images from what is happening, like my brain is creating the scenario of what is going on if I opened my eyes.
And when it comes auditory hallucinations, I usually get evil laughs, incomprehensible whispers and a loud buzzing sound. The buzzing sound sometimes gets so loud that it’s unbearable. You can definitely tell when you’re in SP, you hear that distinctive noise and you’re paralysed.
I love how every little thing on LD4all can be the start of an interesting discussion that is actually worth reading.
I can. I don’t always succeed though.
Sleep Paralysis is not always scary, especially after you get accustomed to it. Now it only scares me when I don’t expect it at all, like at the beginning of the night.
Hey, don’t get me wrong, I’ve gotten sleep paralysis which made me ■■■■ my pants. One time, I saw my ex-girlfriend sleeping with me and then she turned into a hissing serpent monster, screaming my name. Another time, I saw a man in a blue robe go through my wall, and stare right at me. These scary visuals, with the paralysis, can add up to a pretty scary experience. Closing your eyes doesn’t always make them go away.
For me entering SP is easy. Going from SP to dream is the hard part.
