Thread: Is This Consider LD?

I was sleeping for 8 hours and i dreamed.
Later on...i was awake for a few second and i close my eyes again. Slowly, i dozed back off to sleep where I was in a dream again.
This time i just kinda realized that it was a dream.
The weird part is, i didn't even RC.

So, i was happy and all and i was suddenly sucked into another scene and it became blurry. I then rub my 2 hands together and it became clear and...yeah, i freaking woke up!
Sorry if you guys were expecting more. I'm just a mere noob.

-So, i just wanna know, if this is really LD or just my imagination?

-Is it Hypnogogic Imagery?

Last Question,

-How do you felt when you were in the dream?
Did you think about the reality? or what kinda emotion was there.
I just need to know for sure so that next time when i hopefully become Lucid, i can set my thinking right.

Thats all for now.
Thanks

This, I think, is an LD. If you were definitely in a dream and you knew that it was dream then that counts as Lucid Dreaming.
It was definitely not hypnagogic imagery - you would know if that happened, and you would not get into the dream that quickly.

This is how I have a lot of my LDs - just by sleeping in and just going back to sleep whenever I wake up. Quite often, I go straight back into a dream and stay conscious. It then normally takes a while for the dream to stabilise, and if I get too excited then I wake up. However, if I stay asleep it can turn into a good LD

Congratulations on your first lucid, and
Good luck with further ones

Really?...well...Bad or good that was LD.
So yey and thank you!
What kind of method do you usually used to induce lucidity?

I am trying to MILD atm, although I had a very unsuccessful WILD attempt not long ago. Also, whenever I've got the time, I stay up late and then sleep in late, which lets me wake up and fall back to sleep a lot during the morning hours. Sometimes this results in LDing the way you seem to have, simply by slipping back into a dream that you haven't quite woken out of and staying lucid. Unfortunately this is a very unreliable method and you can't tell when it's going to happen and when not.
I'm very bad at reality checks but occasionally I have sprees of them where I think about whether I'm dreaming every couple of minutes

Yep, seems like an LD. Well done.

Sometimes in dreams it's odd, you can just suddenly realize it's a dream without the need for reality checks and the like. Always a treat when that happens. When I'm in a dream, I make a point of not feeling overwhelmed or overly excited, I find those feelings cut dreams short. Instead I try to fell as I do in waking life and remind myself again and again that I'm in a dream.

Ok firstly great Avatar very trippy.

That was a lucid dream because you knew you were dreaming.

That was a dream and not imagery.

Thridly, you can feel anythign while lucid, I tend to find that sometimes my emotions are a little greater. Or sometimes I seem to have no emotion.

Thanks a lot people.
Though...i didnt fully remembered what i dreamed, i think im fully motivate enough now to embark on another journey toward a better LD.
