Question regarding sleep paralysis

Hey there,

Last night I had a lucid dream! It was a DILD. After wakening (as my dream told me it was time for school and I woke up thinking it was 7.50am but it was 6.30am lol) I realised I could move fully, and all was well. It was like waking up normally from sleep. Thw only problem is this - my left hand felt like pins and needles. I could move it, but it just has the pins and needles feeling. It went away after about 1 minute. I'm wondering if this was due to it actually being pins and needles (restricted blood flow) or whether it was sleep paralysis?

If so, a pins and needles feeling across pretty much my whole body doesn't sound thay great, once again adding towards my reluctance of DEILD (even though I think i could EASILY achieve it and will probably try it today as it's friday)

I think it is because of the first one. Sleep paralysis happens to you every night, WILDing just lets you percive that it happens.

Yeah, sounds like pins and needles. I don't think Sleep paralysis has that feeling.
