Sleep paralysis is pretty common and not necessarily connected to any mental illness or psychotropic drug. It's a scary feeling, but fortunately only lasts for a few moments. It seems like forever when you're in it, but, like bad nightmares, it's probably only several seconds. In rapid REM sleep, your body is pretty much paralyzed, It seems like sleep paralysis with the kind of hallucination you experienced, is coming partly awake while still being in deep REM state.
