Alright, so, I've been trying to become lucid on and off for about 2 years now, and recently, I guess something just kinda clicked and I was finally sort of able to. Here's the problem, though: I realize it's a dream and then just don't do anything about it. I'm not even entirely sure it counts as lucidity since I'm still not really conscious, just aware. I realized I was making this realization because I just started waking up every morning being all like "Wow, I am so close to lucid dreaming, it'll for SURE happen tonight," and it took me a week or so to realize it felt so close and my dream recall was so good because I was actually sort of becoming conscious/realizing I was dreaming. But it's a weird sort of being conscious of it, because I'll be living the dream and then never really tell myself that I'm dreaming, but just kind of have that information in the back of my mind, and I'll also wake up, and it'll take me a good hour or so before I realize that that memory was of a dream. Also, I wouldn't realize via recurring things or reality checks or anything of the like; no matter how normal the dream was, I'd at some point just suddenly have the knowledge that it was a dream.

Anyways, for maybe a week, week and a half, before I realized this was happening, this would happen EVERY night, (becoming aware and remembering the dream) (and also most of the time I'd wake up in the middle of the dream (like the normal waking up between sleep cycles) then go back to sleep and be able to continue the dream, but I'm not sure if these were false awakenings) but once I realized what was going on, I changed my mantra from something along the lines of "I'm for sure gonna become lucid tonight, and no matter what I'm at least gonna remember my dreams" to "Once I realize I'm dreaming, I'm going to take control," and now I just haven't remembered any of my dreams since then. I'm thinking that the trouble with taking control might've been because I just like dreams? Like, it's 100% possible that in my state of asleepness I just went "Hang on I wanna see how this plays out on its own first" or "Nah its time for rest I don't wanna have to deal with this" or something.
Sorry for the wall of text... Has anyone had any similar problems? Does anyone know how to get past this?
