Thread: What was This?

Okay, I need some help.

BACKSTORY (Do not need to read):

I have been trying to achieve an LD for the past 3 days. This night I decided to try a WILD. So I got up at 3.30 (I went to sleep at 10) but I was so tired I went straight back to sleep. At this time I remember feeling that I had a dream but not what it was. After that I went to sleep till 6 in the morning which is when I woke up and took a piss and got a drink. Then I went back to sleep.

DREAM

Okay so I was some sort of resistance fighter I think and I saw something weird like a granny with a gun and thought I MUST be dreaming! So then I teleported to my house and tried to calm myself down. I tried some more reality checks like looking at the time and stuff. Then I closing my eyes and asking for something. But then all of a sudden I was in my bed and was waking up. I got up and told my brother that I had an LD but he was with some random guy that I didn't know but of course I thought I had woke up so I didn't question it. Then I woke up.


So was this an actual LD? Was it just a dream? I thought maybe I had an LD but then also had a false awakening.

yeah this is really common its just a false awakening. they happen alot after Ld's and sometimes you just know your still dreaming and other times not. thats why you should always rc when you wake up

One more thing, what method do you think this would be? None?

NOTE: I was thinking a lot about LD's as I feel asleep because I was disappointed that I had failed to stay awake and try WILD.

Hi,
I guess it could be MILD (because of the things you thought about before falling asleep) or just a DILD, because you induced it with RCs in a dream.

Well I think I will count it as a DILD. Thanks for the help guys.

That is a false awakenging, and they can be very annoying. If you ever wake up from a lucid do a reality check straight away.

Before the false awakening you had a DILD.

I'm lucky, I rarely have False Awakenings. I can only remember one, where I was buying stuff from a vending machine when some grabbed my money and ran away down the hall into a car and shouted "Go go go!". I said "Oh god it's a dream! And I heard tingley music. Then I had my FA.
