I used to get this weird thing, where it's like I was stuck between a dream and reality. I'd wake up to the point where my eyes were open, and I was aware that I'm awake. Yet the dream would still be kind of going on in my head. Then I'd try and lift my head up, or reach my hand over to the light and nothing would happen.

Basically, I was awake enough to know I was no longer sleeping, and to tell myself to lift my head or reach over to the light, yet not awake enough for body to physically react to what I was telling it to do. It was really weird, and happened every few nights for quite awhile.

It also came with unexplained pain. For example, when I would try to lift my head, but to no avail, I would get a crushing headache when I finally fully woke up, but the headache would only last for a few minutes, and then completely dissapear.
