Either way, if you're ok now you'll probably continue to be so.

If it happens again, just try to stay calm and see where it takes you.

...are those who've helped us.

That kind of thing can also be close to an out of body experience. Sometimes.
"Its a secret to everybody."
There is currently no "cure" for sleep paralysis. It seems to effect teenagers at a higher rate than other age groups.
My son experienced numerous bouts of sleep paralysis during his mid-teens. He found that adhering to a regular sleep schedule and not eating late at night reduced and eventually stopped his problem.
Talking about it also helped. He realized what was happening to him was real and that he wasn't imagining things. He also wasn't alone as I too have experienced sleep paralysis. It often runs in families.
It used to be called "Old Hag Syndrome" because many people upon waking hallucinate and think they see a "figure" running from their room. In olden days, an Old Hag or Witch was the usual suspect.
Good luck and remember that you are going to be OK and try to remain as calm as possible.
Peace

its amazing how many different sleep disorders there are. on the same show, there was some dobermans that had some severe narcolepcy and when they would get startled or really excited, they would just collapse for a few minutes.
totally bizarre.
speaking of sleep, i should go try to do some of that.

When it coincides with a hallucination, that is the absolute worst.

I've thought people were breaking into my apartment before. I was so afraid that 'they' were going to make it into the bedroom before I could open my eyes. That was fucked up.
BTW - Sleep Paralysis is linked to Narcolepsy. :eek:

I most definitely do not have narcolepsy, thank god.
One time I thought my girlfriend had come up the stairs from the basement and jumped on me while I was on the sofa. Then I 'realized' it was not her because somehow I was aware enough to know she was not supposed to be at my place at that time. Then I panicked thinking there was a laughing intruder who had jumped on me and ran off. It then took me several episodes to actually snap out of it. Freaked me the hell out.

I went to see the doctor to figure out why I'm so tired. She mentioned narcolepsy as a possibility without knowing my history of sleep paralysis. I only found out about the link through reading the materials she assigned me.
I've decided not to pursue the reasoning behind my sleepiness with the doctor, until I can rule all other things out. I do not want to be labeled as a narcoleptic.
