I have had problems sleeping for years, that's one of the main reasons I smoke a bowl of weed most evenings, to put me to sleep. But this happened after about 2 weeks of smoking abstinance since my birthday so it was weird.
The 'sleep paralysis' theory is quite a sound one but I have suffered from that in the past. I usually get it when I have a nightmare and intentionally try to wake myself up. I have a degree of control over my dreams that enables me to do this.
But this was different and there are things that are not consistent with the link Neo posted, the main one being -

- I beg to differ, inability to breathe and waking up (being woken up) feeling dizzy and with blue lips is about a serious a health problem as you could get, I nearly suffocated somehow. Human Brain - Oxygen = Dead.
My mind leans more toward the spiritual on this one. I asked my late Auntie to watch over me, no force alive of dead would dare mess with her
I also found out that a little girl died of TB in the room upstairs above mine and my neighbour commented on several unexplainable things he had witnessed since living in the house. (I live in a converted house) my mind is open to such things. To say we humans can explain everything in this world with proven science is I think a little over zealous, there are many 'known's', but there are many more 'unknown' 'unknowns'
There are examples of things we know about but have no way of detecting ourselves with our natural senses, the sound of a dog whistle, infra red light. So there must be hundreds more things like this we dont know about.
Just because the basic principles of science, wether it be medical or physical or whatever, stand up to scrutiny, it does not mean they are correct. There's just no better, commonly accepted, opinion or theory.
