Thread: Would you count this as a False Lucid Dream?

I could be wrong but I think it goes sort of like this:

Semi-lucid: a background awareness that this is not real, that fails to reach lucidity on any kind of fun level. Technically a lucid, but useually dreamers like me and Sageous are not going to bother counting them as "lucid dreaming" when it comes to tracking how many "lucid dreams." I can not speak for him of course. I will not count this type towards a competition for instance.

"False Lucid" I think is suppossed to mean that in the dream the DC of you is going through a story line in which they are saying "this is a dream" maybe in the dream that DC of you even flies. However, it is a dream about being lucid and you are as unaware as in any normal dream. I have not seen the term used much, but I think that is the idea.

So it's interesting because I have a fairly high degree of waking consciousness but I mistake my waking life for another part of the same dream. Perhaps that's what people call a false lucid dream.

I think around here we have been calling that "false memory."
