Thread: Failed RC, false awakening

Well, today I had a strange dream, I was in class (not lucid) and I teleported to a street near my house, then I walked to my house and I found a classmate coming from inside my house, and I tought "This is really strange, I've never invited him to my house".
And then I knew I was dreaming, I did a RC, but my dream started to fade, I was awaking up, so I tought of provoking a false awakening, but I couldn't make it, I was really waking up, but instead, I suffered a false awakening, but I was thinking that I was really awake, so the dream continued to be a non-lucid one. It was like I forgot I provoked it.

The questions I have are:
1. Is there any way, I can stabilize a dream, by false awakening, and not being tricked by my mind (and still remember to RC after false awakening)

2. Is it better to spin and/or rub hands or to provoke a false awakening? Or other method?

3. After I had the false awakening, I went to the bathroom, and there was a red spot in my face, I squeezed it, and a really big blood red like larva came out from my skin, this isn't real in RL, so, how can I see that I am dreaming and not let this really strange things happen in dreams? I do many RC when I see strange things in RL, but maybe it isn't enough


And after I woke up today, I tried to WILD, but I failed because I was counting, and I never fell asleep, and when I stopped counting, I slept and I was dreaming normally. What did I failed? Maybe I stood up for to long for me?

Many thanks in advance for reading my questions
