Hey everyone!

Over the summer I was really into trying lucid dreaming and I achived three lucid dreams in about a month. Then once the school year started I stopped trying. But this past month, I've been trying again and I've seen a lot of "progress", but I'm not sure if it's actual progress or not?

My dream recall is very high, but kind of jumbled. I can remember usually three dreams per night, but they are kind of...unclear. Some parts are missing etc. I keep a dream journal. I know they are getting better though. So, I have had three "lucid" dreams the past two weeks. The problem is, two of them were extremely fast. One of them I just suddenly realized it was a dream, and it felt like my eyes rolled back into my head and I woke up. Whenever I'm in a lucid dream it feels like how it feels when you are asleep then open your eyes to a super bright light. Then, last night, I was in a dream, and I knew I was lucid, I couldn't see, and I could feel that my body was in sleep paralysis, I was basically half lucid. I've been working on having OOBE as well, so I tried that since sleep paralysis is a direct route to having an OOBE if one knows how.

I'm not sure what's going on. Is that even considered progress since the dreams are so ridiculously short?

P.S. These past two nights I've had them back-to-back. I have been focusing a lot more on it, so I hope my subconscious is realizing I want to have them?

Thanks for any replies!
