Thread: Not sure if I had a LD or not. Can anyone help?

In dreams, there isn't such a thing as 'layers', for example, a dream within a dream. Rather, when you fall asleep in a dream, you simply transition to the next part of the dream. I've had a dream like this, and it was very vague. But it's still a lucid dream if you realised in the dream 'within' your dream that you were dreaming. What I would suggest is, get into a habit of reality checking whenever you wake up. This way, if you have an FA (False Awakening) like the one you mentioned in your post, you'll have more chance of regaining lucidity.

PercyLucid had a dream with layers in it. He went to sleep within his dreams (I think it was 3 times), then he tried waking up, and each time he woke up in the bed that he went to sleep in the layer before.
