Anyway does anyone know if when in this situation, could I use it to enter a lucid dream provided I keep calm?

Also that night I realised that I was dreaming multiple times but at no point was I able to control my dreams; are these two events related and does anyone have any tips for dream control?

Sufferers of sleep paralysis can definitely attempt to WILD through their SP. Check out these links and they'll give you an idea of what I mean.
