so i've been trying to remember exactly what i was dreaming/doing. i swear i remember hearing the alarm, and then writing something down. but me turning the alarm off is really hard to remember. everything after that is just a complete blur.(except the part about the motorcycles in the desert..)
Welcome, Ssoup!
That is excellent! You were trying to increase recall by writing down your dreams. What you had was called a FA, meaning that you think you wake up, but you are actually still dreaming.
Also, were you aware you were dreaming at all?
