Maybe someone can help me with what I am experiencing

Hi everyone. I just want to share my scary experience and I hope someone knows why I am experiencing it.

So here it is. I've been experiencing something like being trapped inside my own dream. It was like you thought you woken up already but when you realize that you are still inside your dream you come back to bed. The first experience is that I thought I woken up already and what I was doing that time,I was with my family in our living room and I was playing with my nephew and then suddenly I pinched my hand and I felt nothing only then I realized that I was still dreaming. The moment I realized it, I will find myself back in bed thinking that I woke up from that nightmare but I keep coming back to bed every time I noticed that I was still dreaming. I could not quickly recognize that I am still dreaming because it felt so real. And I tried for like 3-4 times and I successfully woken up and I know it was not a dream anymore.

I thought it will not happened again but a few weeks after. I've experienced it again and honestly I felt scared because that time I almost lost hope to wake up. That time I could really hear my family talking from our living room. It feels like I am already conscious on my surroundings in the living world but I just can't wake up. Few of my attempts to wake up is that I was already at our stairs going down to have bond with my family but then I realized that I was still dreaming and I will found myself back to my bed and that moment I came up with an idea and started to move my body to help wake myself up and I can't move.it keeps happening and continued to feel like I was already waking up and then back to bed. I've been trying it for like more than ten times and I was starting to feel nervous and somehow scared. I could not move even with just one of my fingers thinking that if I can move one of it I will successfully wake up. And with few more attempts, I did it. But that feeling like being trapped inside was still there and I kind of feel scared that if this will happen again, I don't know if I can manage to successfully wake up.

That feeling keeps going and I could not calm myself so I tried to find answers to google but I just could not find one.Since then, I am thankful that it didn't happen again until now but I could not let my guard down about it. However, after that incident, I feel like I am not experiencing ordinary anymore. My dreams were like the one I posted the last time about me being very fixated with the man who don't exist, aside from it was about snakes,spiders, dead babies, and others that I don't consider normal. During my waking hours, I sometimes feel a sudden frequency on my ears and thought it maybe related from a medical conditio, there was also a time where I was about wake up and open my eyes and I saw aw a human figure shadow standing beside me and then with my next blink it disappears and I also thought that I was having hallucinations. Lastly is that, I always found myself space out/staring into nothing and sometimes I can't control it.

Please respect my post, I am just really curious and hope maybe someone have an idea about my experience since I did not told anyone about this. I could only feel comfortable telling it with strangers.

Sounds like an out of body experience.
