Wasn't sure where to put this but I was told before it's somewhat associated with lucid dreams or astral projection so decided to put it here. Often times when I lay down but usually when I haven't slept for a while I feel a tingling and numb sensation in my fingertips and then I feel it in my toes. I'm a fidgety person so I don't usually go past this point but just a few minutes ago I did go past that point. After I didn't move with the feeling in my fingers or toes for a few minutes I felt my body and my lips go numb and it felt like my body was spinning. It then became hard for me to breath and I could hear myself panting. Despite that there was a sort of calmness luring me into a sleep. I embraced it for a second but considering my irregular breathing I became scared I might die if I fell asleep so I fought it off and kept myself aware. I tried to stabilize my breathing by taking deeper breaths that did help a little. Still feeling numb and spinning I was curious if my vision would appear distorted if I opened my eyes like it usually is during sleep paralysis. Opening my eyes I found it wasn't I was able to see everything just as I always do.

Does anyone know what I experienced? It couldn't of been sleep paralysis I felt numb not paralyzed.
