Was this sleep paralysis?

[Desmond]

When I was 11-13, (Almost 16 now) I had a short but strange experience that could almost be sleep paralysis, but it didn't feel as intense, so I don't know.

It was one of those times when I didn't like sleeping, so I tried to stay up all night, and it was like 3-4 in the morning. Well, I was laying in bed with my eyes shut. Then I decided to get up to watch TV, but I couldn't. It felt like someone was pushing me down. At first I thought it was my dad or something who caught me in my room still awake and was trying to scare me. So I tried to make a sound to tell him to stop, but I couldn't make a sound. Then a few seconds later, I got up and saw that no one was there...

That was when I thought that my lack was sleep was affecting me, so I just went to sleep (in my parents' room.) =P

So was this sleep paralysis?
And also, is sleep paralysis paranormal? I don't generally believe in the "paranormal" part of sleep paralysis, I always thought it was something to do with your body still being asleep while your mind was awake...Idk.
