I have a question. I don't think I've ever experienced sleep paralysis. But I do on occasion experience something similar. I'll wake up and I can't move any of my limbs. Both of my arms and legs will feel "asleep" in that bizarre tingly way, and I can't move them. This doesn't happen often, but when it does, I just lay there for a few minutes and after a while, I regain control of them.
The reason I don't think this is sleep paralysis is because I don't experience the hallucincations or the feeling of terror that so many people report. To be honest, it just kind of pisses me off. It's annoying, but it doesn't scare me in the slightest. Also, I can move my head, mouth, and eyes, just not my limbs.
Is this a less-serious form of sleep paralysis, or something else entirely?
