So was I Lucid dreaming?

Ill just tell the last bit of my dream, because Im not sure if I was lucid dreaming or not

I was standing in the front room watching tv eating pizza, when for no apparent reason I realize im dreaming, my heart races as I realize what this means, before I have time to do anything everything starts going black (it goes full black quite quickly) around me, as everything begins to go black I start rubbing my hands and because I didnt have anything to focus on in view I had to concentrate on what it felt like to rub my hands together I even tried closing my eyes but to no avail, I could feel my self rising up towards consciousness as if I was floating up through water to the surface the (surface being concious), when i became concious I was still rubbing my hands, I think, but I didnt wake up fully and I think I went into a non lucid dream, that or I had a false awakening because when I woke up properly my hands werent close to each other.

It may be worth noting that I didnt have this dream till like 9:30 am after I had a good 8.5 hours sleep.

Also it didnt really feel like I could control anything, I know i was waking up but I feel like i was dreaming about lucid dreaming, as everything still had a sort of dreamy look on it, before it all went black (its hard to explain)

Yes, you were lucid dreaming :wink: As long as you know you are dreaming in your dreams...whether or not you can control stuff...it still means you are lucid dreaming. congratz

That was defenitley a Lucid Dream, good Job :) You Just have to stay calm next time, because if you get to excited, thats what happens. here. Dream control and Lucid Dreaming are separate things. Lucid Dreaming opens up the possibility for Dream Control. If you want anymore help or have questions, just send me over a PM :)

excellent! thanks, I look forward to my next one
