What are some things you know about sleeping facing a mirror?
So basically i've heard it could cause nightmares and let spirits in and stuff like that if you slept by them and so I was always skeptical about it. Last night I woke up a with a terrible cough and pain in my ear so I was having a hard time sleeping. I moved off my bad and hopped on my computer and whatever. Eventually I set down my computer and fell asleep where I was not realizing I had my back to a mirror. I then became conscious in my dream, but I couldn't move. I then saw shadowy figures and tried to wake up but it was like these things were trying to trap me in the dream world as they were screaming "NO!" as I was telling myself to wake up. I eventually woke up, shaken. My first thought after I woke up was sleep paralysis but then I realized i was completely asleep during it, as proven by how i was back on my bed instead of by the mirror. Any ideas on what this means and if it is connected to the fact i was laying right next to a mirror?
