Thread: Stuck / no control and how to wake up questions

This morning I had a kinda weird experience, it happened to me before but not this extreme.
I was sleeping on the couch and had a FA, counted my fingers but that was almost impossible, because it was not clear and I didn't see my hand, but I know for sure I was dreaming.
Tried to make the dream clear with verbal commands and rubbing my hands, but it didn't work.
I also couldn't really move, and it felt like my eyes were half open.
It went dark and I woke up, again a FA with no control and the same problems.
This happened over and over, only in one of the FAs I managed to get of the couch, but it felt like I was handicapped and halfway in my room I fell and woke up in the same situation.
In the last FA I had the least control and was just staring in front of me, I decided to wake up, but couldn't, I got... don't want to say scared but frustrated.
Finally I woke up, but after this I want to know:

How to wake up if you want to?
Do people have same experiences?
How to change this into a clear, full control, lucid dream?


Extra information:
- Slept 6 hours, WBTB
- The room was not really dark. (IRL)
- Isochronic audio in the background and my voice recording, giving hints I'm dreaming.
