yeah I know what you mean.
Actually all of my "Lucid Dreams" where like that, I know that I am dreaming, but my logic doesn't work at all, so it just feel like a non-lucid dream, just a bit more vivid.
anyways, I started to notice that when I have vivid dreams my logic brain is more awake, so maybe you have to become lucid from a vivid dream or something like that, right?
the worst part is that when your logic sense is shut down, you cannot repair it, even if you planned to become more aware or something like that, you cannot do it, because you need this logic sense to act, to make decisions...

to all with this problem:

anyways, how is your dream recall? I'm sure that if you become lucid from a vivid dream...then it will work better.
tell me
