Hi, I'm brand new to this forum so please bear with me. About two years ago I had a dream where I thought I was awake but I couldnt move. I coudlnt shout. After a bit I realized that I might be asleep. When I finally woke up I was very disoriented. About two months ago, I had the same dream but in it I tried to turn on a lightswitch and my hand passed right through it like a ghost might, when I went to my sleeping daughter, I touched her and actually felt her warm skin...but I knew I was asleep and this was another dream like the one I had previously. It happened again last night. This time I actually "felt" my hand getting tingly from the way I fell asleep. I felt the way my hand felt against my cheeck in my dream, and I knew I was asleep and it was happening again. I dont know why I keeep having this dream or if its trying to tell me something. Can anyone shed some light on this for me? thanks

hey! welcome jacs!!! w00t!

you got sleep paralysis the first time, then on the next one you must have had either a OBE of fell asleep and had a very vivid dream!

welcome! w00t!

I agree with DD it could have been sleep paralysis or perhaps a false awakening.

It also sounds like you are developing lucidity in your dreams. Look around here and read. If possible try to get a copy of Exploring the World of Lucid Dreaming by Stephen LaBerge.
