Actually I think this could very well be possible. I haven't personally experienced it to that same degree as you're describing, but I've had some fun related things happen to me as well. |

I had a dream in which I could control bits of the environment, I acted out what I planned to do in a lucid dream, but I'm not sure if I was really aware of the fact that I was dreaming. The last thing I remember was trying to create a scenery, but my next memory is in another dream where I was describing my previous dream to another person like I've just woken up. Usually people describe LDs as vivid and realistic but I can't recall that much from last night, it all seemed rather unclear. I'm not sure, was I semi lucid, can you have control without lucidity? |

Haha, your dream sounds like fun |

Human brain is a mystery. If it can make us a false awakening dream, of course it can produce a fake lucid dream. |

Yes, it's strange that the weirdest nonsense stuff can happen in dreams without the brain questioning reality. The problem is that I can't recognize any dream signs other than the general randomness of some events and apparently that isn't enough to wake me up. The first time i realized i was in a dream was when I saw a person who passed away, the second time it was automatic, but things like flying white horses in slow motion on the motorway seem to not bother me at all |

I do keep a dream journal, and I find that since I started my dream recall improved so it has definitely been helpful, but it's been only a few days and I haven't yet found a pattern or a dream sign. But I managed to become lucid in the most awesome dream I had in a long time, I think reading around this forum somehow helped my subconscious to be more aware and I got lucky. |

i had a dream where somehow i found out i was lucid. Couldnt fly or do anything cool. So i went to my parents and asked them if i was dreaming and they said no. So i was like i guess im not dreaming |
|
How vivid did your dream feel? In my case it was the opposite, not sure if dreaming or not but had some control, I made a door appear out of nowhere with my will. |
|
So, you were not fully lucid... |

I had this issue last night. I got lucid after like a month long dry spell and I have recently read on here a lot of people trying to convince dc's that they're not real and that it's a dream. For some reason I realised I was dreaming and with little thought I started telling a dc they weren't real. But it seemed false, like I was acting it out without being fully aware. My aim in ld's (as I'm still noob) is to stay calm and survey my surroundings, and see how detailed everything is. That thought didn't even cross my mind last night. The previous ld before that I carried out my plan, and surveyed. |

Sounds like my dream a couple days ago. I dont recall becoming lucid but was just in the dream and was lucid sort of. The dream didnt end either.. Scene changed and I described it to others thinking I was awake. I wasnt sure when I really awoke if I was dreaming I had an LD or really lucid. And it was fuzzy and more like dream-feel rather than reality feel. But I decided it was a low level lucid as I think I took actions I would have if fully lucid... I kept checking my hands and then decided to fly...pretty standard actions I take. Just really low awareness. |

In Germany there even is a word for this experience: "Präluzider Traum" (pre-lucid dream) |
|
In English the phenomena is called Simulated Lucidity. My Dream Journal is filled with simulated lucidity, it might sound annoying, but at the same time if you dream you are lucid, you are not far from becoming lucid. |
|
Yeah, the other day i was dreaming of doing all my lucid goals and feeling as if I was lucid. However, i was actually non-lucid with no control |
|
The easiest way for me to see it is this: First of all I become lucid (I realize that it's a dream and all the implications of it, that is to say it's all built by my neurons while my body lies comfortably on my bed) and then I have a lucid dream which lasts as long as I'm aware that it's a dream. |
