Its a condition where eventhough you are awake or most likely semi-awake, you still have not gain your motor functions... can't remember what's it called... You think you are awake and you try to move your body but ya are unable to coz you still can't control your body yet... Give it a few moments and you'll be fully awake...

It's sleep paralysis.
Directly from Wiki:
Sleep paralysis occurs when the brain is awakened from an REM state into essentially a normal fully awake state, but the bodily paralysis is still occurring. This causes the person to be fully aware, but unable to move. In addition, this state may be accompanied by hypnagogic hallucinations.
More often than not, sleep paralysis is believed by the person affected by it to be no more than a dream. This is the reason why there are many dream recountings which describe the person lying frozen and unable to move. The hallucinatory element to sleep paralysis makes it even more likely that someone will interpret the experience as simply a dream, as one might see completely fanciful objects in a room alongside the normal vision one can see.

852 million people across the world are suffer, up from 842 million a year ago.
Every day, more than 16,000 young people die from sleep-demon-related causes--one child every five seconds.
Every year, nearly 11 million people die before they reach their twenty sixth birthday. Almost all of these deaths occur in developing countries, 3/4 of them in South East Asia, the region that also suffer from the highest rates of sleep demons and paralysis. -
No offence....but just that I believe there are no such things as sleep demons, unless u mean it literally (eg zzzz monster?).Originally posted by Quake Reloaded:25 yrs old here. Why?
I think everyone does experience these symptoms every now and then. That's why we have friends who tell us that while holidaying overseas, there's "something" pressing onto them.
Nothing serious but if you wana seek help, see either a psychiatrist or your family doc. Your choice -
happend to me a few times. now i go "wth" whenever it happens as i can recognise it almost immediately, then wait until i can move again. but 1st time i experienced it, scary as hell

That's a different case of sleep apnoea. Are you obese? That is a serious medical problem.

I tend to get sleep paralysis alot, mostly if I take a nap in the afternoon, or if I sleep more than 3 before or after my normal bedtime (2300 hours). I've experienced it dozens of times up to date, ever since it started for me in 2002, but even then I'm still terrified of it.
It's really sad, because most people after finishing a long project late in the night will want nothing more than to hit the sack. Unfortunately for me, these are the times when I'm actually afraid to go to sleep, and often leave my light on as I noticed there's a much lower chance for me to get it with the lights on. -

If you're lucky, during sleep paralysis you'd just remain paralyzed, with no hallucinations or anything else accompanying it. But if you arn't so lucky, well, sleep paralysis would probably be alot more terrifiying for you then, sad to say.
That's what my first experience was like, but after that things started to get worst. Whenever I fall into sleep paralysis, my entire body seems to be shaked very vigorously, and whatever sounds I hear get distorted. Eg; the engine of the SBS bus below my block sounds like a monster roaring.
Hallucinations are less common, but still happen once in awhile. There was once I stayed up to 4am, and while walking to my bed I just knew I was going to get sleep paralysis after I fell asleep. Sure enough, it happened, and was my most terrifying experience up to date. I woke up, paralyzed, and saw a ghost coming up the stairs towards me. After getting out of it, I grabbed my blanket and ran to my parent's room.
False awakenings do happen too, where you dream that you wake up, but in fact you're still asleep and paralyzed. However the thing I like about this is that you don't actually realize you're paralyzed.
Unable to breathe...yea, I get that too and it seriously sucks. No idea how this comes about, but everytime I get this I often think that I'm going to die before I wake up.
Here's a tip to getting out of sleep paralysis mode though. Just muster all your strength together and try to move you hand, arm, finger (depending which you have control of) by a considerable distance of about 5 - 10cm and you'll snap out of it. -

Understanding more neural concepts of Sleep Paralysis, some researchers now hypothesize that a very rare condition called Sudden Unexplained Nocturnal Death Syndrome (SUNDS) may closely relate to Sleep Paralysis (1). Upon the death, a SUNDS victim produces no body movement even though he experiences a myocardial infarction and strong breathing difficulties and should straggle in agony (5). The death may be caused by the extreme muscle atonia during Sleep Paralysis, which is so severe that even the cardiac muscles and the diaghragm paralyze -

i find that trying too hard to move will cause more hallucinations for me. i just use brain power to stop any hallucinations and relax
