Constant State of Dreaming

So an experience I had last night got me thinking, is it possible to be in a dream from the time you go to sleep to the time you wake up? I know about things such as sleep cycles, mine very consistently fall around the 2 and a half hour mark ever since I used silene capensis root for a month or two. But anyway, last night I had a DILD, and then after awhile I ended up in a new environment (non lucidly), and had to determine again that I was indeed dreaming. This pattern continued for a few times over, I ended up having what some might call 3 or 4 lucids in a row. You might be thinking that these were short lived dreams, and the reason my environment changed on me was because the dream broke down and then redeveloped; dropping me somewhere different. But I am relatively experienced with lucid dreams, and these dreams were not in any way short; and in fact seemed really, really long because the lucidity came almost immediately at the start of each "new dream". I really wish I had checked the time when I woke up to see if it took place in my usual 2 and a half hour sleep cycle, but I was too preoccupied with thinking over what just happened. I'm just curious to see what you all think about this and what could have happened.

Sorry to write a book, hope someone takes the time to read it

Well we dream in all 5 stages of sleep and you have tons of dreams every night. I do not think it is possible to have one long dream throughout all the different stages of sleep, but it is possible to continue the story of one dream throughout all your dreams in the night.

Fair enough. I've always wondered if it would be possible to gain enough control to actually dream through multiple sleep cycles. Such as when you are awakening from an REM stage, you just stay in the hypnagogic state and don't fully awaken until you pop back into another dream
