it's not always frightening. It was really only freightening when I had no idea what was going on. The being in the room was always demons or spirits, banging on the wall trying to wake me up. Noises are always in perfect stereo sound. Keep in mind that I am fully awake, alert and can see, but still believing these beings are in the room.
Now that I know what is going on. It's always a more peaceful being in the room, such as my girlfriend trying to wake me up or my mother. Now it's just frusterating as I feel an intense feeling that I must fight my paralysis and wake up or my girlfriend/mother/etc will think I'm dead because I'm not responding. Once I snap out of it, realize, there was nobody there and will usually just see my girlfriend sleeping not knowing what I just went through.
There are some websites that belive that Sleep Paraysis brings you to another reality or something along those lines. I don't believe that but I do think it may have something to do with the natural DMT in your body or something similar.
I've always wished I could stay alert and enjoy my "tripping out" while in that state. but no matter how alert I am (I've tested doing math in my head and looking at the timeknowing I was really alert) I've always felt that person wanting to wake me up. I guess it's my brains natural way of telling me not to stay in that state.
