I had a couple of experiences of sleep paralysis when younger, and one in which the sense of psychic invasion was extremely powerful: lying in bed, unable to move, with an alien presence muscling in on my own mind, my own thought processes. I knew with desperate certainty that it had to be repelled, otherwise I would lose myself. In my mind, I screamed at it to GET OUT, and it retreated. My younger sister later reported that she had had a similar experience around a similar time, and we wondered whether it had actually been at exactly the same time, whether we were psychically linked in some way.
People who know me are sometimes surprised to learn that I have a sister at all - she lives abroad, and I apparently don't seem like the sort of person who would have a sibling at all, more of an only-child vibe - but she is a kind of secret-sharer for me, we don't necessarily talk all that often, but we both have a part of ourselves that exists on a wavelength that seems unique to the two of us.
Anyway, I didn't think that the invader was my sister herself, but something trying to get in on that frequency, trying to get at the part of me that is linked to her - a vulnerable spot. It was a hacking attempt, which triggered every alarm in my system.
