Exactly. And it works in complete opposite too - some people DON'T have
that natural paralysis whatnot, hence sleepwalking.

I'm tired & can't be arsed typing but had some very scary shit happen.

apparently your body naturally paralyses itself when you enter deep
sleep to stop you thrashing & hurting yourself I guess.
sometimes you wake up while your paralysed so in a sense you are awake

some people have experienced rather nasty things in this state.
Like I said, I've had a huge amount of them - the last one a month or so
ago & they never get any better, where you are attacked/assaulted it's
also referred to as, amongst other things, the dream demon or entity
attacks.
try googling those.

will maybe type some up when I get 5
