Thread: I watch my dreams, I don't take part in it?!! help

I have started my journal 5 days now, my dream recall has improved, but here is what I noticed,

- in most of my dreams i'm just a consciousness (third person gaming) observing the dream in various angles, now the dream could be about me, and I observe myself do things (or control myself like a video game), or I'm not even in it.

surprisingly those few dreams where I'm myself (first person), my dreams are more realistic and I recall better.
i have decided to make a reality check on "video game, movie or visualizing my self in 3rd person (daydreaming)" in addition to my regular list, any tips or suggestions?

- my dreams are hyper-unrealistic and all made up: i'm a robot, fighting giant burning worms while flying, owning a space ship, galactic war...etc (these like mentioned above, 3rd person view).. and my subconscious doesn't even bother questioning it? disappointed at myself. especially when I read how others realize subtle changes in their dreams : "bigger TV", "different pavement",..etc

note: I love video games, anime and manga : these have messed my subconscious up.

about me:
I wake up at the end of sleep cycles, 3 times per a night (no alarm needed), and I recall my dreams about 70%

2 times I noticed im dreaming and I woke up instantly, but they were at the end of my sleep cycle, i.e. having several dreams and the last one I realize i'm dreaming and I wake up.

edit: its been 2 days doing ADA, and my reality check is intensifying my awareness (how did I get here) and countingfingers

p.s. I searched this subject, but didn't find anything useful
appreciate anything
