Sleep event

So I have been out of lucid dreaming for a while. Mainly because I had to wake up so early every day, studying medicine is not something you can do in your spare time. The strangest thing happened to me yesterday It was 3 'o clock at night, I was extremely tired because I could not sleep. I was laying there, very still. I was thinking about general stuff, I was exhausted and ready to fall asleep. Sounds like the perfect recipe for a WILD, and that happened. The minute I felt my body vibrate I was thinking " No I do not want this, I stopped doing this forever" but my body would not wake up. I felt hands pulling me up and I touched the ceiling I opened my eyes and I was floating in my room and I saw a girl with long black hair floating in front of me and I grabbed her hand. Immediatly I was pulled back on my bed. I was lucid, but I could not move. I felt bodies floating next to me and I tried to grab them but they were too fast. When I tried to get up I felt hands on my shoulder, neck and my hair. The only thing I was thinking of, was " How can I wake up, I have to wake up" I tried to pinch myself, but "they" would not let me. After a big struggle with them I managed to poke myself in my eye ( that really hurts by the way) and I woke up in the same position. I was hyperventilating and everything, it was really a nightmare Lucid dreaming was always very easy for me, sometimes I think to myself I should train myself I could do so much with this gift. But on the other hand I am very scared that I 'm going to dream things like this What shall I do, I do not know..
