Hey there,
i pretty often read that for some the dream fades and they know this is the end of the rem.
i for my part notice this too sometimes and sometimes i have a lucid and worry to much and wake up and then i am pretty sure its "my fault" but sometimes i just dont know if it is a lack of stabilization or just the inevitable end of REM-Phase?

So are there distinct characteristics or signs or patterns how one can distinguish an end of rem phase and a premature awakening?
when to fight against it and when to just surrender? (yea i know some will tell in case of doubt always try to stabilize and stay in or deild back in)
