So, this morning I woke up a little before 8:00, and maybe was up again at 9:00 (in which case it's possible I'd slept for that extra hour), and I ended up having a lucid dream, but I honestly don't even know how it started. I'm extremely confused, because I remember a few things that could all have initiated this LD, yet I don't know which did. First, I'll mention I remember having a different dream at some point before the lucid dream, and I think I vaguely may remember just knowing I was dreaming at one point and realizing "hey I should have a lucid dream here, since I'm dreaming anyway", and this would indicate a DILD, but I'm not so sure whether this part was what led into my LD. I also remember a feeling of sleep paralysis. I can't remember if I felt any vibrations, but at one point laying in bed, I definitely vaguely remember started to get what I knew was sleep paralysis, and then a sensation of certain parts of my body beginning to float above my bed, and then basically once everything was floating it felt like I was pushed back down on my bed and there was that great pressure on my chest, and maybe I felt like I was sinking for a second after that...so if I did go through this sleep paralysis (unintentionally) it'd have been a WILD. HOWEVER, I have dreamt of sleep paralysis before, and I could've dreamt this one too. I didn't get any hallucinations here, though, but the last time I went through unintentional SP I did get the auditory ones.

Has this ever happened to anyone? It's the second time I've awoken extremely confused about my LD, wondering whether I really had one or just imagined it, then confused over how it started. I'm trying to look for hints wherever I can. Is it common to get both a floating sensation and a pressure-on-the-chest/sinking sensation during SP? And why do my lucid dreams have to be so confusing?
