Tonight was my second night where I had a lucid dream. In my dream I wasn't paying much attention to my surroundings, but, thinking to do a reality check, I looked at my palms and I couldn't see any lines. I then did the nose/breathing trick. I had to do this several times because I was uncertain. Sure enough, I was dreaming.

I had yelled "I'm dreaming!" before this dream came to an immediate stop. I had woken up. The part that was weird, though, was that I did a little fighting before I was able to wake up. It felt like being in a blanket (pitch black but you feel like there's something covering you) and I was thrashing around a lot inside it, trying to fight whatever was holding the blanket down on me. In the end however, I ended up waking up.

This isn't the first time this had happened. I had a very similar experience before when I had a lucid dream. I've ended up waking up both times, but I was able to go to sleep again in a few minutes. I've heard of being suprised by your lucid dreaming, so you wake up, but I don't understand the blanket situation. I also know you can stabilize to try and stay in it, but I can't even do this before I awake, it's that sudden.

If anyone could help me understand why this is happening and get past it I would appreciate it so much. Similar experiences, advice, etc. would help. Thank you.
