Second LD... or not?
The last weeks I have a good dream recall and it's really fun again with the LD stuff, but I have one big problem. I had two LDs that you really could call LDs, but in the first one I tried to use a light switch because it's gotten darker after the RC and this started a new dream where I lost the awareness. The second dream is from yesterday, I remember that I did an RC and I still have this moment where I look at my hand in my mind, but after that it got really unclear and I remember that I had the feeling that this is a dream of an LD... it's somehow crazy, I can't say if I thought this after the dream or in the dream...
The whole thing is like bulding a whole dream in my training and now I only reached the RC part and some action in the LD, but after that the LD stops because it's not finished that far... like a computer program.
I always thought LDing is like open the door to something that the mind can do, but in my case it's more like writing this whole LD stuff right at the begining in my head...
hope it's not to carzy what I'm talking here, but it's a big problem for me.

Sometimes we can have non-lucid dreams that feel like they are lucid dreams, but they are just made up by our subconscious. Your dream may have been lucid, but sometimes they are so short that its really hard to tell. Do you keep a dream journal? Thats a must if you really want to lucid dream. Work on auto suggesting throughout the day also, that will help you out a lot too.
Tonight I will have a very vivid dream and I will become lucid.
Thats auto suggesting.

If you were truly aware at the time that you were dreaming (not just wondering, but knowing), then you were lucid. It doesn't sound like you were lucid in these dreams, but it's a start. You were very close!
Take it that you're on the right track, and if you keep put effort into this, you'll be lucid in no time :)

Ok, it's really hard to keep a dream journal... but to have one is sure part of the training... I will try it again. Thx for your answers

Yeah, dream journals are pretty important.
