First time I had sleep paralysis I had no idea what the fuck was going on. I had a strong feeling of a presence but I guess it was general fear from not understanding the situation, it didn't help that it was the night I watched the first episode of Taken - 2002 Spielberg miniseries about alien abductions lol
But I soon discovered what it was, and never saw any shit, I just get really anxious because I want to break from it... at that time I had it a lot, then I go several years without having it, then it comes back randomly, I also developed a kind of sleep paralysis nightmare, where I'm not really having it but I dream I'm having it and get into a fucking endless loop of waking up without really waking up, hellish
I truly believe people see supernatural stuff during sleep paralysis because they believe in supernatural stuff. I have always found the supernatural silly superstition, henceforth no demons for me. As it's not something that scares me, it's not a place my mind delves in in that "scary" situation... but after understanding it I don't even find it scary, just annoying.
I believe in spiritual world, but also believe that some experiences are psychological too. When I had sleep paralysis for the first time, I already knew about it, so I never saw anything, but the feeling is very uncomfortable.
Much to think about on the poll questions

but the first time I was like "any moment now the ets are coming to probe my ass, shouldn't have slept in prone position"

When it comes to sleep paralysis, I usually can't even open my eyes and I feel as if I'm suffocating
