Sleep paralysis, while frightening sounding, is a completely harmless thing that can happen to anyone; it is simply when portions of your mind awaken faster than others during sleep. I have had it happen to me several times, and while jarring at first, you simply have remain calm and relax.. your body will catch up. It is not some horrible disease that will haunt you in life.. seriously, don't sweat this at all.

As Shadowhawk said - harmless and can happen to anyone at anytime. I had it once when I was 18, one morning when waking up - it frightened me - yes, I can't deny it. However, my body caught up quickly and I was absolutely fine within a minute. (less probably, but it felt longer at the time lol) I've had it happen once since, and I'm now 49 years old.
