The more I think about it, the more it seems that all of the times I had this happen, I actually realized I was dreaming first and, I remember in the latest case, told myself to wake up and then I was in the state of sleep paralysis.
I was reading the reality check techniques and oddly realized how many of these habits people already do without thinking about it. The next time this happens to me I'll surely try not to get afraid and instead try to calm down and see if I can at least try realizing that I'm actually in a dream and from there try to manipulate things.
The first experiences with sleep paralysis are truely frightening, especially when they are unexpected and you don't know what is actually happening to you, however as you experience it more you become more calm and realize that panicking doesn't even do anything for you.
