false awakening

So i have heard that wearing a nicotine patch to sleep will aid in creating more vivid dreams. Last night i wore a 21mg over 24 hours patch to bed and here are my results. Dreams are weird. I did experience my 3 dreams during REM sleep, consistently waking after each dream. Though i cant recall the first dream entirely but i know it made no sense (which isnt expected but whatever). My second dream was about me fighting two guys, one guy i used to work with (who is a skilled karate fighter in which we always used to talk about fighting, like everyday) and i was whooping his ass like all haymakers to the face and he had his guard down the whole time, which would never happen in a real fight with him, but it was strange because we were acting but it seemed so real. The second guy i was doing the same, all haymakers to the face and i have no clue who he was lol. but after the fighting stopped we switched scenes to talking to the first guy in his office ( just like i used to when i worked with him) about how if it was a real fight he would destroy me lol. Then i woke up only to fall back asleep moments later and fall into my third dream. My third dream was somewhat vivid and of course weird, i was back at my previous job (which i just got fired from in October and wish i hadnt of fucked it up, best job ever) and i was working with my boss, he was showing me this tool that i know isn't actually there at the shop but he wanted me to sharpen the blade on it and i had to disassemble it to access the blade on this weird tool. so i got the thing taken apart and had the blade ready to sharpen and when i put it in a clamp and got the grinder ready to sharpen it is when i woke up. This is my first night actually giving a shit about dreams and actually trying to remember them and actually logging them, so with that being said i don't believe that at any point i attained lucidity, although at one point in my first dream ( the little fragments i remember) i did look down at my hands and they only had four digits and at that point i woke up so maybe for a few seconds i was lucid... i dont really know for sure. all i know is my dreams ( the ones that i have remembered in the past) are always fucking weird. and i cant wait to log more.
