I suffer from Sleep Paralysis. Does anyone else?

Oh, forgot to add:

Most commonly you'll be laying on your back and suddenly get the feeling that you're falling or tripping, triggering a weird jolt through your body.

I get that all the time. Never experienced any of the rest of it though.

 

Every human being has this event reocurring every once in a while, it's perfectly normal.

Isn't that a little bit different or is that exactly what you're saying? Dreaming about falling is one of the top 10 dreams. A lot of people have told me that they'll be just falling asleep and "dream" they're falling and their body will jerk or they will kick. Then that wakes them up. People with insomnia have told me that and I've experience it before but not often. The dream/sleep paralysis is much more disturbing (at least in my experience).
