Trunk hydraulic lifter/support problem 850 1995

Not sure I have the correct terminology here. Suddenly today my sedan trunk lid did not lift up with ease. Is there an adjustment for the hydraulic lifter/support or are they worn out and need to be replaced? Yesterday trunk opened and closed normally; today I'm afraid to stick my head inside for fear of lid falling and decapitating me. When it closes, it comes down with a thunk. What happened and how do I fix it?

Sorry if this has been covered elsewhere--I did not find it.
