Haennie,
So interesting. I've only ever discussed sleep paralysis with a few other people and only because I forgot about it.
Sleep paralysis started in my teen years - was brought on my physical exertion in cold weather. It became totally predictable and was so particular.
At the time I was told that I would grow out of it, but it continued but with much less frequency.
It does not freak me out any longer...except for the sensation of being watched by an alien. That still is still freaky
Beam me up!
