That's what Nebulae said here: http://www.dreamviews.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=5278 Has anybody else done something like this? I find it very unusual that you would actually say such a thing within a dream and not become lucid. Do you guys think it's so vivid that you actually think it's reality, or is your mind just telling you it's real and you are just playing along? Are you a lemming to your own subconcious?

Personally, I have had only one experience like this before, and I had also thought I had gone back in time :-P .

Something similar happened to me

That dream "continued the day".

...I feel really crazy, Like I'm drunk, high and stuff at once! I cant walk straight, I cant think straight, I want to sleep really badly...

...I feel strange. I start questioning if it's a dream. First I say it to myself, then I say it out loud...

...I can say it's all completely real, and I want it to be a dream, but it isnt...

It sounds like one of my regular dreams...where everything is just so perfect (or seemingly so...) that you never need a reason to question it. it happens to me a lot...

it happened to me recently and im kicking myself for it. I performed a reality check(i cant remember which one) and i thought the dream was real enough to be reality(it was "normal" not like my really vivid dreams that ive had before)

Dreams can definately feel as real as this world. And with the logic center of the brain shut down, you can do stupid things like talk about LDing and not catch it.

One time I was cleaning up a mess and I pulled out about 5 "Exploring the world of lucid dreaming" books and didn't notice...
