Sometimes when Im sleeping I have a bad dream and try to wake up...?

And when I do this I tell myself its a dream and to wake up and I kind of sort of push my self out of the dream to were my senses are back and I can move over a little but when I try to open my eyes it feels like my eyelids are being pried open and it hurts my eyes all the way to the back of my head anywho this is minute 20 second process that happens for a minute but when I stop trying to wake up im right back where I left off in my dream.....does this happen to anyone else is it normal.....and Ive experienced SP soo I don't think its that
