Mental checks aren't as reliable as physical checks, and they may fail more often. I think the more reliable mental checks are those like looking at a clock and seeing if the numbers change oddly when you look away and look back, or looking at text and seeing if it changes oddly when you look back. Also, try looking at the back of your hands, looking for any oddities there, and if there are any oddities, make sure you can logically explain them completely, as if you can't you're probably dreaming and should do another more conclusive test. Also, when you RC, make sure that you do it very carefully and thoroughly, so that you do not make a dumb mistake like "I have eighteen fingers like always, not dreaming", and then wake up pissed off (though it probably will be a little less obvious than that).
