Wow, I never had a manifestation. I just woke on the couch one morning and realized I didn’t have control over my breathing and couldn’t move. I was living alone and unemployed at the time and it occurred to me that if I was actually frozen in place that no one would find me, potentially, for a very long time.

I tried to scream but nothing came out. After what seemed to be ages, I heard about 3/4 of a second of loud static and passed back out. I woke up some short time “I think” later groggy but able to get up.

But I have no idea people actually saw manifestations, I guess in retrospect what I had could have been worse.
