Ey there jayraymo
Yes, it's quite normal to have little or even no control of one's own dream. This is because he/she has a pretty low dream recall or the dream itself is not really that vivid. But don't worry, by improving your dream recall and your awareness, you can control your dream without reaching the point where you are already awake. I suggest you get yourself a dream journal and record any dream you had in the past night. This way, you'll be able to exercise your dream recalling ability thus improving your dream's vividness which in turn, makes it easier for you to control your dream body.
Welcome to DV! I still haven't had a lucid dream since I joined the site (though admittedly I haven't been trying as hard as I could have been), but I think most users experience lucidity 'once in a while' - to put it vaguely. Just try out some of the techniques in the tutorial section and see if any of them produce any results.
Thanks guys ill start my dream journal now
