Yes, I know the feeling and it's got a proper scientific name - it's a known phenomenon which is not particularly worrying. I hope someone else can tell you the name, but all I can say is not to worry about it too much - it's a nasty feeling but not a sign of anything bad.

It is sleep paralysis. I've experienced it a few times. I find that when my electrolyte level is lower it is worse. Very scary...especially the first occurrence

ya a couple times. once I was trying to yell to my bro and was on the other couch when I was sleeping. I could hear him and a friend, and I was having a wicked nightmare and I was yelling for them to wake me up. my attempted yelling was just moaning to them and I heard em say he must be having a sex dream. only a few dreams have actually scared me and that was one of em

I know what is happening to you. If when you wake up and you can't move, its normal. It means you just woke up from REM (Rapid Eye Movement) sleep (possibly from a nightmare). This is the healthiest type of sleep. It is where you dream the best. There are many zones of sleep. You need to go back through ALL the zones of sleep to wake up properly. Your brain basically has to catch up with your body.
