Firstly, check their breathing. If they are breathing at a normal pace, they are awake. If they are breathing slow and relaxed, then they could be in deep sleep.
Next, look at their eyes. Look closely at their eye muscles and see if they are tense or relaxed; if they are tense, the person is probably fake sleeping, whereas if the muscles are relaxed, then the person is likely to be asleep.
Try tickling them and if they giggle straightaway, then they are faking sleep.
Call on them and say something like "I know you're awake. I can tell if someone is awake or not and you're doing the worst sleeping imitation I've ever seen" or something like that. Usually, theyll give up and laugh and say "you're good" and compliment you so as not to embarrass themselves.

ProfessorSigns that someone is fake sleeping can include visible muscle tension, like clenched jaws or fists, an irregular breathing pattern, exaggerated stillness, and overreacting to external stimuli, such as sudden noises. Additionally, if the person seems too aware of their surroundings or is peeking through partially opened eyes, they may be pretending to sleep.

It sounds like you may have experienced sleep paralysis, a phase where you are partially awake but unable to move or speak. This can be accompanied by feelings of pressure, fear, or a sense of a presence in the room. It is a common and usually temporary experience, often linked to stress or disrupted sleep patterns. If it persists or causes distress, consider talking to a healthcare professional for further guidance.
