Answers:
sleep paralysis it happens when you dream so you don't move around in your sleep and hurt yourself. you just woke up when you weren't supposed to and it took your body a while to clue in.

I can almost assure you it was a dream. I have experienced similar dreams many times, including last night. I think when you felt you were pressuring your body you may have been in a position where your body really could not move. I really don't have an explanation for not being able to scream, but it happens to me and it is always a dream.
Don't worry, I don't think anything is wrong with you. I think your body is just reacting to some emotional stress.

the answer is sleep paralysis- i have this sometimes when im sleeping in the car or somewhere unusuall but i here it can happen to anyone anywhere.
in REM sleep, your brain paralyzes your body so you dont actually act out your dreams and stuff. with sleep paralysis, your mind wakes up but you brain hasnt really realized it so it keeps you paralyzed-- its a scary situation, but if it becomes serious or happens really often id talk to your doctor and see what he thinks

omg! this happens to me! i'm not sure what it is, but i got really scared the first time it happened. the one time i couldn't really breathe either, and i really started to panic. i know it's just a dream though because the one time i was able to get my foot to hit off the wall to get myself out of that. i notice it mainly happens to me when i'm on my back or, slightly on my back, slightly on my side type of deal.? but i don't think there's anything wrong at all. your fine (:Health Question & Answer
