      Is this a form of lucidity?

      When I am sleeping, around the time I wake up I often say to myself in dreams "Guess its time to wake up." and then my alarm goes off. Other times I will be in the middle of a dream, I will hear a noise in the real world and say to myself in my dream "Its just my roommate". Is this just me waking up slightly and then falling back asleep, or is it me obtaining some sort of self awareness in dreams.

      Well by definition, if you are aware that your dreaming then you are indeed having a lucid dream. No matter how many seconds it lasts.
      I suppose you could say that it is a form of lucid dreaming =/

      EDIT- Thinking about it. You wasn't aware you was dreaming, you was just aware that your room mate made a noise. So I guess its not.

      I dunno dean, I think it is just your conciousness slowly coming back while you wake up.

      I get it a lot, I have been thinking about it myself too. I don't know whether it is technically lucid dream. But I have been thinking it may be possible to use it to become lucid, somehow. Maybe start to get woken up a bit, but stay asleep somehow once you get to the point where you are concious.

      I, despite being a newcomer, wouldn't consider that a form of Lucidity. I've found myself in a dream, not knowing I'm dreaming, closing my eyes tightly to then open them in waking life. Only after waking up did I realize I was doing that in my dream, I didn't wake up going, "Hey, I did that in my dream."

      However, remembering while you're awake most likely has a good effect on on your awareness levels in your dreaming state.
