i hear you get more sleep paralysis the more you astral project and lucid dream. Is this true?

Yes, sleep paralysis is the stage astral projectors and lucid dreamers try to get to to jump into the oobe. If you have natural sleep paralysis you can just instantly turn it into one of the two

I've gotten sleep paralysis at least monthly for the past five or six years now.
Still can't do anything other than panic when it hits. Feels like I'm suffocating and can't get passed it.
Probably doesn't help that I'm asthmatic already and not being able to breathe is a deep rooted fear since I spent the majority of my infancy and adolescence in and out of hospital because of it.

Simply relax into it. Sink into yourself or 'go back to sleep'. You will naturally 'pop' out. Don't expect it, don't think. Just let go.

It might seem very hard at first, but you need to push the thought of breathing out of your mind. As long as you don't pull a 'you're now breathing manually' on yourself, it won't be an issue. You might practice manifestation techniques (/loa/) as a way to learn how to block things from your awareness at will.

I'm interested, too.
