Your eyes are open but you can't move your body, you feel the presence of someone in your room or someone pressing your neck or sitting on your body.
You struggle to move your mouth or your body for a few minutes, you try to shout JESUS ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚ as I always do but still you are unable to.

Now let's talk about it.
