REM?paralyzed sleeping?demon?

Hello, well I have been experiencing this phenomenon that I go to sleep but then I wake up conscious but unable to move nor speak. I have this for a very long time, every night. It is very frustrating because its creepy as hell. Its like paranormal activity yup very creepy. I open my eyes and there is someone there watching me,its staring face to face. I am unable to punch it or something to talk to it. i pray for it to go away and it eventually does. i already know what rem is, and that sleep paralyzed crap. I have done my research so none of that science sh**. Its like its following me. Even my girlfriend has felt it with me when she is with me. I am scared of darkness, being in the night because strange things happen to me. Its not my imagination because I can feel it and people that are with me can also feel it. I know what the difference is of someone touching me and not touching me. things turn on by themselves I hear things that i am unable to explain the sounds. It has become frequent and scarier with time. I of course will like to get some therapy but its not right how come it wont go away by itself. My room is like not like mine at night. I am afraid of going to sleep and i wont sleep if there is no light. this thing has made me afraid... I may sound like a f**got saying this but if you can experience it like i have you wouldnt say sh**. what im looking for is answers, and opinions. no offending is very appreciated. thanx
