I had a lucid dream last night! I stabilised the dream by feeling the textures of everything around me, looking at my hands, looking at all the details. I felt that the dream was very realistic and I felt very aware in the moment but when I woke up, I realise it actually wasn't that realistic and I didn't feel aware.

This is what happens with all my lucid dreams, I feel that the dream is very realistic in the moment but realise it wasn't like that at all when I wake up. Is this normal? Also, I always find it very hard to talk in my lucid dreams. I can speak normally in non-lucid dreams but it's as if I have a speech impediment when i'm lucid.
