Gahhh, first LD this morning!!! Yeah, so in the end, after hours of moping about, I went to sleep about half 3 in the morning, after practically running from the bathroom to my room, despite having all the lights, bar one, on - yeah I am that weird about the dark/night/monsters. I woke up at around 7:40 and thought about doing the SSILD. So I did, but my thoughts kept on wandering and in what I presumed was not a good way, because I was just thinking about how I would write-up everything I was doing, you know, "Hmm, this worked for me. Then this happened." etc. I fell asleep and woke up quickly, but it definitely wasn't a FA and if it was, it was insanely realistic. I did about 3 different RCs and they all failed. Anyway, I kept on doing the cycles, nothing much happened in them, but you said that's fine. The feelings one was good, lots of tingles and vibrations and the hearing one was the worst, because it is well busy here day and night and my clock ticks But anyway, I thought it was difficult to fall asleep, but then I did and had some dreams. I know they were dreams, but I wasn't lucid. I was in my bed, right where I left myself, but I was on my computer. It didn't feel like a FA, it felt like a dream, but I wasn't aware (I think I tried doing RCs though, I can't remember clearly now). Anyway, I don't know what happened next, but I woke up in my bed and my computer was there, but it was going wappy and strange stuff was happening on it and I knew I was dreaming! I looked at my hand and could only see it's outline and it was kind of hard to keep track on. And I said, "Omg, I'm dreaming!" My voice felt really thick and distorted and I felt like I was losing the dream, so...I rubbed my hands together!! It worked. I got out of bed and practically skipped across the room towards my door. Unfortunately, I didn't concentrate on gaining more lucidity or control, I just shouted in a kind of weird super-hero voice, "I will be in Teesside!" Everything felt thick again, so I crawled around on the floor and I could feel it, I could really feel it. But that made me even more excited so I woke up. It was 9:05.
So, it lasted about 10 seconds and it was kind of gloomy, but it was a LD!!!!! The feeling was just incredible.

Yeah, tbh, it is more of a detailed conversation. I mean, IRL I don't have a full-blown conversation, because nobody is really answering me except myself, but I do a lot of talking

EDIT: This is kind of a response to my own question about clothes, but I'm hoping someone can elaborate. I went to bed in underwear and a jumper (you know, just in case it gets a bit chilly in that lucid world! ) I was wearing the jumper in the LD dream, but the only point at which I was aware of that was when I was looking at my hand. I couldn't feel the cold floor until I got down and crawled around on it and I wasn't aware of whether I was wearing clothes or not. I guess that just comes with better awareness?
