Thread: this is definitly new to me, falling right into a dream.

ok well I have recently restarted my dream journal, the 1st day went fine, 4 or so fragmented dreams remembered, thats very good for me, and then the 2nd and 3rd day i went blank, nothing

today is that of the fourth, and i woke up at 10:48a, after going to bed about 12:50ish and taking 150mg of B6 and a protein shake (decided to add that in just for whatever's sake)

And once i had awoken this morning, i tried remember dreams from last night, i couldnt seem to recall any, but then i closed my eyes, and i almost instantly was in a dream, it felt as though i had control over the dream, and that i was awake in real life, i kinda thought that it may have been a day dream.

but then i awoke again and went through step by step of the dream, the phone rang, it was now 11:27am.

I'm not sure if i went lucid, although as far as i remember in the dream i thought i was still awake in real life, as thought it was just a day dream, i hadnt realised i had fallen back asleep, but in the dream i think i knew it was a day dream, and i was in full control.

any comments on wheither or not this was lucid?
I remember thinking in the dream this was a day dream, but I'm not sure how long that thought lasted.

I don't actually remember falling asleep so is it possible to day dream? or did i just fall back to sleep because i had just been awake less thant 5 mins?

does anyone have any advice on dream recall? over the last 4 days ive only managed to capture one 'whole' night, but this morning i probably wasnt awake enough to remember my dreams and when i fell back asleep(presumably) my memorys of the nights dreams were erased?

thanks again, ducky
