      ALMOST lucid dreaming D:

      this has been happening a few times a night in the past week.
      i'd be like falling asleep, and like i'd have a really un-vivid dream thats like five seconds and then something weird happens and i say in my head "ohhhh i'm dreaming!" and then i wakee up. and right after i wake up it happens again. and when i am having this like little dream it's like really dark and then once i wake up (i didn't even open my eyes) it gets like really light and it like hurts my head.

      whats withh that?

      Getting to excited.your actually waking up before your about to really dream.You might be trying too hard to catch your lucidness.What I have learn for months now is that luciddreaming is like your body clock that wakes you in the morning.That's why reality checks are important, it helps set the bait as you wait.But as you wait for the big catch just think about a good moment with no expectations.(soon the fish will bite but you must wait a while and have faith that your mind will pull through.)

      Like outerdrake said, you are waking up between REM cycles and attempting to enter your dreams then. Thats a good thing, but you're just getting too excited. Try to stay more calm when this happens, and you should be able to enter into a decent Lucid Dream. As for the headaches, it could be your body trying to force you back to sleep.

      Like bizzle said, it's normal and common to have to learn to not overreact when you have a lucid dream. Most of us had the same problem as you at first
      It just takes a few more attempts to get the hang of staying calmer.

      As for the vividness, you may find it to be a lot more vivid if you can stay there for a tiny bit longer.

      Once you can stay in the dream a little longer, what can help to stabilize things is to run your hands over the rough floor/wall .. taste something (the wall?), smell things.... activate your senses in the dream.
      It gets you more intertwined into things.
