Anyone ever been half sleep, where your body was sleep but your mind was conscience? It has the effect of being paralyzed and unbable to talk.

That's actually very common... but scary when it happens.

I'm not sure what causes that, but I've noticed that most times
the episode follows a broken sleep. Maybe its the body's way of forcing sleep even if the mind won't rest.

Do you guys ever try to "break" out of it?

It can be a by product of "lucid dreaming" or deep meditation. Breathe through it, eventually your body parts will start tingling as the blood flow returns to normal, I'm guessing, then you can start wiggling parts and go back to total "normal" mode of body and mind connection.
