Alright so my first "lucid dream" was awhile ago and it was a DILD and I have not had one since. Anyway in my dream After I did a reality check I didn't know what to do in the bad way Like, I was TRYING to wake myself up because for some unknown reason I got REALLY scared. After that I saw a bunch of colors and woke up. I'm kinda interested in what might have happened. Any ideas?
You might have had a low level of lucidity. Or it could of been some sort of lucid nightmare, which would explain the fear. Either way, both are normal and can be overcome with a bit of practice, so don't worry.
Yeah, sometimes we can freak ourselves out, just like that.
If you can't remember in lucid dream what you wanted to do, try writing your goals in your dream journal. Drawing a picture of it or acting it out also helps to remember it.
Lucidity in dreams is so unnatural in general that the mind can freak out the first few times. It is like the brain sees a huge problem and puts on the breaks. I always suggest talking to your brain as if it is a child, and reassure it that you are attempting to learn a new skill, and that it is a good thing.
