I've had this before too; it's possible that I could have had a lot of episodes, but I remember it mostly in my teens. It's scary as hell, like everyone has described you basically can't move or speak but can see everything around you. I've never had the case of seeing things like one of my friends has, who also claims he has been thrown across his room which I find hard to believe. Yeah I watched something on discovery channel about it years ago and I was like holy crap I have that....wait other people have that too! I haven't had an episode in years though, but I would freak out and after I was awake I didn't want to see anything that showed my reflection or had reflective surface. I know that it's mostly unreasearched but I have heard that they now have medication for it so I'd talk to your doctor if it's really bad. I think it's just like a state of being both awake and asleep.
