So I'm a bit confused. I've read up a bit on LDs and OBEs and I don't know if I'm having them or not. I'm 13 y/o, and I had my first weird experience, I was terrified. In the dream i "wake up" but as soon as I do, I become IMMEDIANTLY aware that I'm dreaming. The first time it happened though, I couldn't move. I felt stuck. And I didn't know what to do. It was as if my mind was working perfectly but my body wasn't responding. I'd try to will myself to move and my legs would only twitch or shift a bit. To wake myself up, I had to attempt to scream as loud as possible, though when I did, it sounded far away. But then I wake up. However, in these dreams, despite the fact that I know I'm dreaming as soon as I "open my eyes" in this state, despite the fact that there's nothing alluding to the idea that somethings off, I still can't move. But I can still think and look around, I just can't move my body. Now when it happens i sorta pep talk myself or just inwardly groan and thrash until I can wake myself up. Also when I "wake up" in this state, I've "woken up" in My bed, my sisters bed, my friends living room floor, my kitchen floor, and my basement floor, though it's often just my bed, and when I actually wake up, I'm in my bed (unless I have to thrash so hard to wake up that end up on the floor. My dream body doesn't move, but I can process in my mind that my real body is trying to move as much as possible)
So my question is, am I having a LD, or is this something else? And if it is an LD, how do I learn to control it and actually move?
