Dreaming of being awake

[starcraft04]

Hi all, I m new here, I ve started only 3 days ago. I ve always remembered very well my dreams before and I ve always been deeply into them. Then a friend told me about LD and I read this site which gave me the idea of going for it. It is really funy because after reading the tutorial, I dreamt that I woke up, that I couldn t switch the light otherwise I would wake up my wife and started (in the dream) to write my previous dream in the book I just bought (I bought it for real . I don t know if any of you have experienced that and what was strange is that it didn t only feel real but I had all the constraints from the real world. Could barely see because it was dark and I found the stuff exactly where it was before. Then I had another dream and then I woke up. This gives me 3 dreams in a night I hope it is not going to be like this all the time )) Cheers, John.

The first page in my dream journal says "YOU'RE DREAMING!" and I always make sure I check that first page just in case. I wouldn't want to waste a dream writing down another one.

Just three days or so ago, I "woke up" and began writing my dream in my journal, even getting mad at other people for distracting me as I was writing the dream, and then I really did wake up. First "false awakening" I remembered, and somewhat amusing thinking back on it. I was convinced I was awake, only to find out I wasn't. Welcome, by the way. If you're interested in lucid dreaming, this is the place to be.

I feel so stupid after it! My DC's must have my own Dream Journal...

Sounds to me like you had an FA (False Awakening).....if you want to read more, I think there is a tutorial on it!

Many thanks all for your answers. I will try the thing with writing in my journal that I am dreaming. Maybe it will help John.

Hello, I always dream of being awake and starting my day ie getting ready for work, running the bath etc. It feels the same as any other day.. And then I wake up. My first thoughts are always 'oh no now I have to get ready for work all over again!' Last night I was plagued with these dreams!

My first false awakening is when I set my alarm for 6:00am and had a dream if getting out of my bed to shut it off then woke up and really shut it off I have strange dreams
