@cassolotl@toot.wales Just like you said, I may not call it a nap, but for me it happened after I stayed up late and then fell asleep on my back while looking up. After a short sleep, it came over me.
I woke up, and a few minutes later I fell asleep again, and it happened a second time. Anyway, friends have helped me learn what to do if it happens again and how I can reduce the chances of experiencing sleep paralysis.

@pacific06@mastodon.social Oh yeah, that sounds consistent with lots of other sleep paralysis stories I've heard! It's such a weird phenomenon, no one knows why it happens more when you sleep on your back! I'm really glad to hear you're learning a lot and feeling more knowledgable and confident about it. :) Asking around is such a good instinct.
