What's going on is that you're in a semi-lucid state. Some have different definition of it but that's how I like to describe it. In my second week of Lucid Dreaming I experienced that. Mind telling me when you started?

Your mind's conscious parts did n't awaken even around 60%. It's awake about 10%. When you become lucid parts of your conscious brain awakens. That's the reason we do stabilizing techniques as lucid dreamers,to awaken parts of our conscious brain or to increase awareness just like how many seem to call it.

Your lucidity without any reality checks also happened to me on my second week. Perhaps because you watched Lucid Dream movies that's why it got planted in your subconscious ?It's a form of MILD by the way.

As for dealing with them do stabilization techniques. You're hoing to fail a lot first but it gets better. Lastly, plant an itention for your goal like dolphin said. Good luck!
