I had been working on lucid dreaming for a while, especially after getting one, but had a really long dry spell. After a while, I stopped working on lucid dreaming as much, the only thing I did was remind myself to have reality checks right before bed, but not perform them during the day or anything else.

After a month, I eventually had a strange dream in which I was being chased down a very very long corridor. I couldn't see what was chasing me, but I knew I was running from something. I just remember wishing there was a door I could slip into to catch my breath, and the next thing you know, i come across a door on my left side and I slip in. In my dream, I knew that whatever was chasing me did not see me enter the door and went away. I also realized "holy crap... i think I may be dreaming." I explicitly remember a strange rush overcoming me as I realized i was now in a lucid dream. I got really excited and started thinking of where I wanted to go... but something went wrong because i remember being thrown into a completely different dream, in which i was not lucid.

so did I have a dream in which i dreamt i became lucid but didn't or did i actually become lucid temporarily? i'm not sure what happened.
