I woke up this morning around 9:25am (I remember bc I looked at my phone) my boyfriend got out of bed and I went back to sleep...

I remember falling asleep but also remember just laying in bed and feeling the room get warmer, we have 2 cats and I heard them both outside making their typical "meow" noises when they play around...I got up and I looked out the window and saw them playing with another cat I've never seen before. When I saw the 3 cats outside my window I felt nervous and a bit panicky (sp?) and from that point all 3
cats ran up along side the wall I got scared seeing that and I laid back down and went to sleep finding myself in a dream where my boyfriend was in the kitchen with his sister and I can hear them talking and I can hear something being delivered... I sit up and by far the weirdest thing ever I feel annoyed and it starts to shake and as the shaking is over I ball my left hand up in a fist and open it quickly and thinking of "Explosion" and the house rattle...I realize that I am dreaming so I lay back down and I wake up... I wake up and turn over and see that my boyfriend has written me a letter and its long one and I take it and rip it rushing out of bed and tossing it as I head towards the door

NOW I realize the door is open and I realize again that I guess me "thinking" I really am awake my boyfriend would never leave the door open when I am in the room sleeping...so I go and lay back down and tell myself to wake up and I do and I felt so sick to my stomach and felt jittery and confused...

I still feel the same way and its been bothering me... I've looked online and couldn't find anything till I found this site...

I took a xanax just realizing that I had a "Dream within a dream"

Is this normal... ? I mean more so does this happen a lot if one is not trying to dream within dreaming...?

I dream just about every night give or take and very rarely...maybe this being the 4th dream since I dunno... 2005 I've had to where I've literally told my self in my dreams to "WAKE UP"


Okee... I hope I put this in the right section if not I do apologize...

I am Kristina 29 from New England and I am guessing that my 4 dreams to where I have told my self to wake up after them feeling so REAL are considered Lucid..

Thank you!!
