    was I lucid ?

    This dream was a couple of nights ago and i was just wondering wether i was actually lucid. I woke up a lot that night , it seemed to be pretty much after every dream. I was lying awake after what i thought was just another time i had woken up. I was just led there trying to get back to sleep and then for some reason i thought to myself "i wonder if this is a dream?". I didn't really think i would be because when ever i do do a reality check I'm in reality. I decided to do one anyway. I started by looking at my hands. I had done a reality check just before i went to sleep and could not even see my hands because it was to dark and yet this time when i looked at them i could see them. When i first looked at them they seemed normal but as i looked closer i realised my fingers would shrink down and then grow again , one by one. I thought to myself "shit am i actually dreaming?" already getting very excited. I then tried to push my finger through the palm of my hand but instead of it actually going through, it shrunk down the more i pushed in and then as i brought it back it grew again. By this point i was really freaking out with excitement as i had been trying for quite a while. I decide to see if i could float up out of my bed. I then noticed my excitement and noticed the dream fading away. I thought i should probably rub my hands together before doing anything but as i did the dream was gone. Im not sure if i went straight into another dream or woke up, i just dont remember anything else.

    I was really excited when i woke in the morning that i was getting closer to having a lucid dream. I would be grateful if someone could reassure me one wether this was the beginning of a lucid dream or not ?

      Hi there! Yes, that was a lucid dream. When you were reality checking and finding anomalies, you said "shit am i actually dreaming?" (lol btw).. I think by that point you already knew it was indeed a dream. Plus, the excitement kinda tells me you realized it was a dream too. So yes, since you realized you were dreaming, you were lucid.

      Congratulations!

      If you need anything, don't hesitate to post in the forums or you could send me a PM if you want. Seeya!
