I've never had the experience of someone else being present, but I have had the experience of feeling normally conscious but being unable to move. It doesn't seem like a dream, and overcoming it doesn't feel like waking up, it feels like regaining control of my movements. It's quite unpleasant; I haven't had it in a while and I hope it doesn't come back.
