http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sleep_paral...

all the answers are there. unfortunately, its not a disease or virus or anything, its just a random thing, so there isnt anything you can do about it. however, ive noticed that most of the time you can feel yourself going into that mode when you try to sleep when your not actually physically tired, or after you have slept for a good amount of time and tried going. you can feel yourself slipping into that state, and most of the time you can catch yourself before you lose and immediately regain consciousness. if you feel that, then just get up and walk around for ten minutes, watch some tv or something, then go back to bed. it works.

Yes, but that isn't nothing paranormal, it's just the sleep paralysis...

Sleep paralysis is a common condition characterized by transient partial or total paralysis of skeletal muscles and areflexia that occurs upon awakening from sleep or less often while falling asleep.

The most common causes of the sleep paralysis are

-Sleeping in a face upwards or supine position

-Irregular sleeping schedules; naps, sleeping in, sleep deprivation

-Increased stress

-Sudden environmental/lifestyle changes

-A lucid dream that immediately precedes the episode.

Answer 6

yeah, it happens sometimes...it's nothing big

Answer 7

Sleep paralysis is normal. The body induces sleep paralysis to stop us hurting ourselves when we dream. Sometimes we wake up when this is still on effect, but it soon passes when the right chemicals are released in our brains. Its not super-natural.  

Answer 8

It could be sleep paralysis, as people above me have said.

Sleep paralysis is the name given to a condition that one in every twenty people experience. It is where you wake up but can't move your body at all for a few minutes or a few seconds. It is caused because when you sleep, your brain "disconnects" from your body, so you don't hurt yourself when you dream. When you wake up, your body doesn't reconnect with your brain fast enough and you experience something where you cannot move your body.

In this state sometimes people hear voices, see people in the room with them or have trouble breathing because your body goes into "panic mode" and raises your heart beat.

Answer 9

Yes, and there are techniques to come out of it, such as concentrating on closing your hands into fists so hard that you force your fingers into your palm, waking yourself up. Or you could do the lazy way and just trying falling back asleep until you wake up the right way.
