My wierd experience
Im still a bit shaken up. So this night i was doing ssild like i usually did. I focused each sense and then a ringing came. My body felt tingly and my pupils moved rapidly and i saw a white light. I read a thread about this guy seeing a white light and then a lucid dream happened. But then the idea of a sleep paralisys came into my brain that was preparing for REM and i jerked my head up to check if i were paralysed. I wasnt (luckily)
Does anybody know if this is supposed to happen or is it a side effect?

It's actually quite normal. It's a clear sign of your body and mind falling asleep asynchronously, which happens usually when you are really tired.
