hi, i dont actively try to have lucid dreams but i do have them often at random, and they seem to become more common as time goes on. i dont know much about lucid dreams so i thought i might as well ask this question just in case this happens again.

i recently had a lucid dream where once i tried to wake up, i was unable to. i would keep waking up right back into the dream, and each time i did, it got more uncomfortable staying in the dream. i mostly tried moving my body since i was just taking a light nap and was still aware of my surroundings, but was completely unsuccessful. i would keep moving in the dream, but not irl. how can i wake up from those sort of lucid dreams, or should i just wait it out?
