Ok so today I woke up with only a dull little fragment of a dream but I recorded it anyway, kinda frustrated. I go back to sleep determined to remember that I am dreaming the moment I fall asleep and find myself in a dream. I drifted in and out of scenes, it felt like i was half asleep, and i still had the voice int he back of my head urging me to remember to know when i dream. (i kinda repeated it in my mind).

So then I finally find myself in my bedroom (like I am already in) and it looks vivid and real. I decide to do a reality check so I look at my hands and they are invisible. Excited, I see that I am dreaming. I try to get off of my bed, with an intention of what I'll do in this lucid dream, but I can't. I'm like paralyzed. I struggle to get out of my bed but I still can't and I think my vision gets unfocused too. I remember trying to even turn my head to the side with my hands. It was so hard! I even KNEW it was all in my head. I told myself I could do it, but nothing worked. I felt trapped. It got to the point where I was pulling the covers off and even trying to drag myself from the floor! Then there was a new scene where I am telling someone about my 'failed dream.' (This always happens, I keep forgetting to do RC when i tell someone my dreams).

SO yea I failed at controlling my dream. I can't understand what the problem was! Anyone know?
