Sleep Paralysis

I have this quite often. It is a strange experience. At first I thought it was like Lucid Dreaming, which is it occasionally, but I find it to be very suffocating and restricting. I have noticed that I get it when I fall asleep during the day and then go to sleep at night.

It is a bizarre experience and I would be worried if I could be, but I feel calm and nonchalent when I am in this state, as if feelings are cut off.

Many times it feels like I'm floating or falling down a tunnel. I try to wake up but it feels like the dreamworld is dragging me back down. Sometimes I float to the top of my head and my body feels so heavy and lifeless and I can't move it or wake myself up.
