Difficulties waking up from sleep occasionally

Hi guys! I’m 24, 6’0, 180 pounds. Sometimes i find it difficult to wake up from sleep. I feel like I’m trapped in sleep, it feels like I’m half asleep and half awake. When this happened, I can feel my muscles struggling, I feel like I’m moving partially from my effort to wake up but I won’t . And when I finally wake up, it feels like I was engaged in some heavy activity. (Breathing hard and tired) please I need to know your with me. Help please.

Sounds like sleep paralysis, I have experienced it many times before. For me it’s when I know I need to get up and I try to get up but my body can’t move, very scary.
