MY BOYFRIEND AND I TRIED LUCID DREAMING

" Are you ready?" I heard my boyfriend's voice on the other line. " We'll talk tomorrow if this crazy shit really works." He ended the call. He sounds upset because I've been pursuing him to try this thing called Lucid dreaming. Lucid dreaming is the ability to  control your own dreams.. like writing a story but in HD style. Everything's moving and mysterious. I think it's cool so I badly wanna learn it. " I'm only doing this because I love you." He even said, annoyed.

I breath heavily then closed my eyes, I tuned everything in my surroundings and focus on sleeping. They said to lucid dream is to concentrate first of being half awake and half asleep. 10 minutes later I was sleeping, no, I was half asleep, everything is silent, serene, when suddenly I felt like someone is holding my legs and arms. I tried breathing to relax myself, I know I'm just dreaming! But suddenly, I started seeing weird images, a silhouette of a person, a face, evil spirit? I don't exactly know what is it but that increase my panic. I panicked more when I tried moving my fingers only to realize I'm miserably failing. It is like I was totally paralyzed. The fear intensified when I felt like someone is already chocking you. I struggled to move and breath. " M-mom.." I tried seeking help by shouting. I felt like I uttered those words! I do, but I actually didn't! It was just my hallucinations. I thought someone heard me and someone would come to wake me up but none. I thought I'm awake already but I'm actually still half asleep. I continued to struggle without any movements or noise. The image of a demon watching me intensified my fear, the though of an evil spirit might floating beside me made my heartbeat double. I can't even breath anymore! Suddenly, I woke up from that frightening experience, I was sweating, shaking and almost crying, then I remembered I was just trying to lucid dream. I saw  it on social media few days ago. I was about to call my boyfriend when I remembered myself warning him not to call because someone might disturb the other ones lucid dreaming practice. I forced myself to sleep, the experience was traumatic that I keep having nightmares the next hours before sunrise. I failed lucid dreaming. I just fell into sleep paralysis. That could've killed me! I will tell my boyfriend to never do it again. It was sunrising when a call woke me up.

" Sarah, p-please... please come here!" It was my boyfriend's mom.

"Steban is dead!" My tears fell. What? Why? No! The doctor declared he died from cardiac arrest, they said he prolly had nightmare that caused his heart attack while asleep because of fear, and that was the same night I forced him to do lucid dreaming with me. This is the most frightening nightmare of all. They said he had a peaceful death but I don't believe them, I know what fear he has gone through before he died. I just killed the man I love.
