I've been awake while asleep too, that's what sleep paralysis is. Sounds like it was a bit different for you, in that you didn't wake up to it, but it sounds like the same experience otherwise.

Right; in my case I would instead be awake but very tired, and I'd lie down and go to sleep without losing consciousness. The first time it happened I assumed it was a unique one-time experience, but it happened again several times.
It never happened, as far as I can remember, before I developed CFS. It never happened when I was not taking modafinil or armodafinil.
