It happens all the time to me. I mentally lie there and freak out that I cannot move even though I'm telling myself to. Sometimes I find that I just want to wake up but I cannot even do that.
I work nights as a waitress and I believe that has something to do with it.
Happens to me all the time except it's usually when I'm wakign up in the morning. I can hear everything going on around me and sometimes I can even open my eyes a bit...I know what's going on..I just can't move.
