I am absolutely terrified of lucid dreams. I can only equate it as being similar to doing acid or LSD (Which I've never done).

I don't like feeling out of control or in an environment I can't possibly logically understand.

It most certainly sounds like you feel trapped and are desperately trying to find the way out. Your eyes were closed probably because even though you're attempting to escape you can't actually "See" a way out. Just my hypothesis.

I get sleep paralysis much more frequently than lucid dreams. Luckily I wear a sleep mask so no hallucinations. I have become able to wake myself up through slowly telling myself it's not real and by moving my fingers forcefully.
