Sleep paralysis is strange though. I've read a lot about it and have a lot of questions, but then I think that everyone who has experienced this has a lot of questions. I have had some very strange, hallucinatory experiences related to sleep that I've never gotten good explanations for. When I was having them frequently though (quite a few years back) it WAS exhausting and destabilizing.

In the city where I live there is a sleep clinic, highly regarded. Could you get a referral to such a place? They might be able to help you.
I don't/won't take medications, psychiatry is neither something I can afford nor something I've ever seen any benefit from. I don't have a diagnosis, but I could easily guess something in the aspd/schizoid/sociopathic genre of psychosis. To be quite honest, I feel I've come to accept my differences; they make me feel stronger. I'm not subject to the things that restrict the average person. It's quite liberating. The way I see it I'm just ahead of the curve. We may just be the next step in human evolution.
