Sleep Paralysis- Did I do it?

About an hour ago, I was trying to fall asleep and I also had calm binaural beats in the background. I was flat on my back and I was totally still just looking into the blackness while closing my eyes. I couldnt see any clear hypnagogic patterns but there was like boxes growing bigger and it kept repeating a square growing until i ccouldnt see anything but then i saw a quick flash of light!? I didnt feel any vibrations or noises or anything like that.

My brother then knocked so loud on the door that i had to get up

but... I tried and it was really hard and i kept shaking, also, i got up starting with my head then my arms then stomach then legs then feet because it was so hard to get up and when i eventually did, I was shaking all over!

I opened the door for my brother but I wanted to make sure I wasnt in a dream so I did a few reality checks but they didnt work and neither did flying so i was sure i wasnt dreaming. Did I enter sleep paralysis?

I've had a few semi-sleep paralysis experiences and lots of full on SP. In my opinion if you are questioning if you reached SP then you probably didn't. When you have full on SP you will know, trust me! It's an experience/sensation dificult to explain in words.

Ok Thanks

Update:
I tried it again today and I got a few vibrations, my body went numb, my mouth went dry and I had a big shock through my back. My hands felt like they were floating on air :L
