In most cases the sleep paralysis I've experienced didn't involve the same type of activity. The typical situation for me is waking up unable to move and feeling an intense, energetic pressure upon the body, as if some sort of heavy energy mass is sitting on top of me. This is sometimes accompanied by an overwhelming and seemingly senseless feeling of terror/dread, and occasionally some visuals, though usually only black, indiscernible shapes. Usually once it ends I "wake up" again, though I was sure I was awake to begin with. It does seem to be an instance of the brain waking up before the body, and I agree with Zen that unconscious fears/repressed emotions can greatly influence the experience. In nearly every case, any negative aspects of the situation were dispelled the moment I affirmed that I had no fear of them and put myself in a place of love.
I will say that as I've raised my vibration and focused more and more of my attention toward vibrating in love at all times, these experiences have ceased and been replaced with what I can only describe as "conscious sleep", in which I remain conscious while my body sleeps and am able to then simultaneously enter several layers of existence at once, often taking up spiritual work such as healing. I haven't had an unpleasant episode in quite some time. Finely tuning the vibration has a far-reaching impact on one's entire existence.
