While I was offline for 4 weeks I had some really intense and strange experiences while asleep! I would feel someone in my room and wake up and sit bolt upright and as I awoke hear someone speak and see them vanish. The first night I sat up and felt someone in the room, which isn't really unusual for me but this part is. I sat up and they said my name outloud! I said, "Who is it??" and I saw a mist fade like it evaporated form the bottom up and the head last. I couldn't tell if it was male or female and it was like I wasn't supposed to wake up while they were talking to me. This has been happening for a couple of weeks almost every night. Next someone said something about Audrey and I sat up awake and said, "Who's Audrey?" and the same thing...they vanished. This happened twice. The other times it was a man's voice and then a woman's another night and I only awoke to hear a sylable and they disappeared. One night I was really tired (from all this interupted sleep, and when it happened again I blurted out, "LEAVE ME ALONE!" You know how when you're really tired you can just blurt out something and not mean to be so grouchy! So for a couple of nights nothing and last night it happened again but no one said anything. I just sat up and felt someone and then poof they disappeared. I'm getting to the point now where I go to bed tense. I pray for protection and asked the Creator to only let good through but sometimes I feel a little scared because of the unknown factor. At first I thought maybe it was like stress related dreaming or something but I always hear them when I'm awake and I even get up and turn on the light sometimes. It really seems someone comes in and we converse while I'm asleep then it wakes me and they disappear. Now here is where it gets stranger. My friend called me and I hadn't told her any of this. She said she hadn't been sleeping well and was getting up tired. Her husband told her she was having conversations at night with someone while she slept. Like a phone conversation with pauses. Neither of us remember any dreams and we are in a very deep sleep when it happens. Oh, I forgot, before the first incident with me I was either awake or lucid dreaming and felt like I was about to do some travelling or was somewhere else in the dark, and heard a loud funeral bell ringing, loud and slow. I was fully conscious in my mind and in control of my thoughts. Anybody else have any similiar experiences?

Well, that's definitely disturbing! If you're able to next time, can you try asking what it is they want? I know they seem to disappear on you though. I've had things wake me before. Only a couple times long ago I had the dark man visits at night - a holy terror of an experience, but he never said anything - I think he's different altogether. More recently, but not on a regular basis like you, I get woken up by sound or touch and sometimes just that feeling that someone is there. That's my que to get up and get out of the bedroom! :lol:

I got tired of being 'scared' to go to sleep. So, I told them if they have anything to tell me to tell me in my head while I'm asleep. Sounds strange, but I think it worked for a short time anyhow. Try thinking this before you lie down at night and see if anything comes of it. Another thing you may want to do is smudge your house and yourself!

Does your friend live nearby?

Good luck!

Wow! It sounds like you and your friend might be involved in something together, since neither of you are sleeping well, and she is talking while you are hearing someone speak. It might be interesting if the times could be recorded somehow... Maybe some meditation before going to bed, to focus your thoughts on each other would be good. I am thinking that perhaps it might help for at least one of you to remember more, or get some clearer impressions of what is going on. This is really interesting.... so keep us posted!

I've had a lot of experience with this. It hasn't been happening to me dramatically for some time now though every now and then it happens again.
I believe you have spirits stopping by and talking to you in your sleep. Either they are causing so much brain activity by talking with you that during your lighter stage of sleep you are waking up or they are intentionally waking you up. Both were happening (and still does) to me. I've had this kind of thing that varied from pleasant to very frightening.
I've found that a few things work to stop it. One do a house cleaning. Chase out all the bad spirits. I generally don't like to chase out and keep out all spirits. Only ones with ill intentions. One of the best things is waking up cross. If you are woken by someone calling your name be as angry as you want. Tell them to shut up and get out, if you are angry. On a few occasions I woke grabbing at the air above my bed. Someone was bugging me and I must have known instinctually that they were in the space above my bed because I just reached up upon waking and grabbed at them with the intent of kicking their butt. When I took a stand like that the frequency fell back dramatically. They have no right to disturb you like that.
But just one thing though, some of them may need your help. I tried listening, while awake, in a meditative calm state several times and I picked a few things up. I realized a couple had attached themselves to me. One I got the impression was in love with me(strangely enought). But I firmly believe that everyone is better off moving to the other side. I asked them to do that. This could be the reason why one or more are talking to you. But I found that some others just want to tick you off. To get an emotional rise out of you.
Keep us posted on what happens. We can all send you energy to support you in this if you wish.

Thanks all. I did a major cleansing yesterday and I still saw something flitting around that evening but wasn't bothered and slept deeply. I don't want to keep the good out either but I want to sleep well before the fibromyalgia kicks in! I sometimes feel the bed is vibrating and have decided it may be my body and my heart is pounding fiercely causing this sensation. Like adrenaline starts pumping before I wake up. Really weird stuff. It's a full moon too of course! LOL Everything is so different at night. Things scare me that wouldn't bother me when I'm fully conscious and in the light. Even though I love the night and the full moon. I guess it has to do with the stages of sleep and awareness.

Oh, I forgot, I am going to suggest to my friend that we try setting up a tape recorder. I don't know if she has one, and mine isn't too good but it's woth a try. If I set a a camcorder I'm afraid I might see too much! LOL. And never sleep again! ;-)

I have lived in my home for twenty years.I have always had a bad feeling since the first time I came in the door.Over the years things have dissapeared,I have herd voices calling my name.My husband works nights so I'm always alone at night.That is when I hear the banging,doors slamming voices coming form downstairs that sound like the television is on this usualy happens when I go to bed.I don't much more get in bed when it starts.I have been very afaird alot but this is my home they are not going to get rid of me.I don't have any place to go.I get mad sometimes when they bother my animals.They like to upset my dogs they are old and what didn't bother them when they were young does now.I get mad and tell them to leave them alone and the dogs quiet down and go to sleep.

I ment to tell you if you keep a radio close to the bed and play it low while you sleep it will keep them from waking you up.They have awakened me but on very rare occations.

Thanks, Littleirsh. I've been running a fan and the low hum helps somewhat. Sometimes not.

Nakis, How did you realise you had an attachment? Once when I did it, was very obvious but sometimes I don't feel right and wonder about it. Did convincing them to cross over solve that problem? I have worked at that before to have some leave but it seems like some go for a while and then return while others may cross over.

Well, I knew I had someone attached to me because she would talk to me. It sounds weird. Not like I'm hearing voices. But sometimes when I come home and I'm tired I would just lay down for a few minutes on my bed. And while in this really slow mental state, not quite hypnogogic state but still really slow I would hear a mental communication. This female spirit told me her name and told me she loved me. I swear sometimes at night someone would kiss me. Often I heard an obvious noise that nothing earthly could make then I would hear her say something. She would do that to get my attention first then communicate with me. Obviously this isn't a frightening attachment (at least not for me) but it isn't good for her to be attached to a living person. I tried my best to communicate back to her to move on. I tried opening my heart center and letting her know that I care deeply about her but that for her the best thing was for her to move on. To continue on her journey. I don't know if she really left or if she comes back from time to time. Every once in a while I think I sense her. But rarely. My house has been pretty quiet. I only sense a male presense or two from time to time. And I get some strange noise now and again, knockings and such. But it's not like that they have taken up residence in my apartment but only visit from time to time.
She even told me her name (on several occasions), Mary Bennett. I really hope that she moved on into the next world as isn't keeping low or something like that. I think she just visits me from time to time from the hereafter.

I think sometimes spirts are so drown to this life that no matter what we do they won't go on.In a way they are just like us they want someone to think that they are special.Some how I think she found that in you.You must be very special.If she hasn't gone it is because she doesn't want to yet.That is ok it not your falt.

Now they are pushing on my bed almost every night and waking me. I've told them to stop and tried to talk them into crossing over. I am really bothered by this especially since Marc is going to be gone for the next two weeks (at least it's not 8 like we originally heard) out of state. I'm about ready to go sleep at my Mom's but I don't think it would help actually. It's only across the field from my home. If anybody has any good ideas, please tell me.

I know you said you already talked to them, but if you did that right after they spooked you, your vibes may not have been the best. You know, if they could sense fear, perhaps they're not listening.. ? During the day - talk to them and be very firm about they are absolutely not to bother you while you sleep - in fact, the bedroom is off limits. If they (the good ones) are to stay, they have to mind the rules. ;-)

Another thing we've done is open the bible to Psalm 102 (or whichever brings you the feeling of comfort and protection) and laid it on the headboard. After we got some white sage, I placed a bundle of it on the open book. We also did a cleansing with the white sage. I can't say it has worked completely, but activity did seem to die down.

I've also heard that placing sea salt in the four corners of the room (and in your case, maybe at the four corners of the bed too) will help to keep them away. (You can place it on aluminum foil to keep it from getting into the carpet.)

I hope something will work for you soon! Good luck!

Birdsister:It sounds to me like you may have made them mad.I do believe if you talk to them and explain that you only wanted what you thought was best for them it might help.The one that gives the most trouble took my husband wallet once when my husband said afew choice words to him he kept it.To this day we haven't seen that wallet.I know this probaly sounds strange but with in a year he cost us over two hundred dollars for things he took that we had to replace.Don't stay there along if you are afaird there is nothing worse than fear.It probaly won't follow you to your mother's.It is probaly attach to your house.I know I haven't helped you alot but I will say a prayer for you. Love and Light

OK. It's around 3:00am Marc is out of town and it's getting worse. I give up on sleeping. Cleansings, prayers, trying to convince it to leave aren't working. Tonight it made a weird noise and Teddy Bear (my rat terrier/chihuahua baby) heard it and looked right toward it and started to bark. I could see it moving around like energy or heat before I went to bed and so could Teddy. My Mom doesn't believe me and I'm getting scared. I don't understand why I'm being bothered like this! There's no reason for it to be attached to the house because my parents built it and it's the same age as my brother.Only my family has lived in it.

Tonight it seemed more male. I really don't want Teddy to be scared and that is scaring me more. I think I'll sleep at Mom's next! Hope he/it isn't reading this!

Oh, and I tried talking to it nicely and trying to convince it to go to the light at different times etc. I have Bible, Holy water, Reiki symbols, crosses, smudges, etc. This is really not funny.

I IM'ed a friend and she IM'ed her friend and we prayed together and in the process it kept knocking me offline. Things are quiet now but I still can't sleep. ?_?

Maybe you should go to mother's house but on pretense that she would believe. Tell her you've seen someone lurking about your house and would feel more comfortable staying with her. Maybe invite her over to your house so she can see first hand and know what you are going through.

I don't know how you are cleaning your house. When I smudge my house I go through the house blessing every window, door, appliance, ceiling, floor, closet, everything by burning a smudge stick and asking God/Universe/Great Spirit to bless this item(whatever) and not allow anything will an ill intent to come near it or come through it or come into your home. That anything with an ill intent to anyone who lives there or visits there not be allowed to be near there.
It always worked well for me. I used to have alot of activity in my house. Bed shaking, pushing violently down on the end of the bed, bad feelings, talking to me, calling my name, etc...

Everyone please send Birdsister energy. God bless you Birdsister and remove this being from your life now and until it can come to peace with itself and only know you in friendship. God bless you.

Sweety I think its time to get outside help.There are three reasons that it is there #1Its attached to the house.You ruled that out.#2Its attached to the land.#3It's attached to someone in the family.You need to get someone how you know you can trust that can deal with this sort of problem.I'm affaird for you!Please get someone who can help you!My prayers are with you. Love and Light

Another thought - did you purchase anything second hand or bring something into the house that you found? Do you get the feeling that they are trying to tell you something or warn you of something?
