Thanks for the welcome!
I never considered it to be a rare talent at all, I thought most people probably do this at some point, but waking up is so hard to avoid and its the most disappointing thing ever! So I'm interested in stopping myself from waking up but I dont know how much control I can exert over the dream.
Hmmmm it wasnt a normal nights sleep, I had a few drinks beforehand and watched a fairly messed up film, in bed with my friend. She fell asleep and I took at least an hour or two to settle down but i was content listening to music. I think I drifted off, at some point woke and turned the music off because it was bothering me and I thought I'd get a bad nights sleep. It must have been after that, I read about the wiki on this, I think it said something that made sense to me about waking at some point, then going back to sleep. Perhaps something to do with activating your mind for a brief period interrupting your sleep? I'm fairly confident in thinking that makes you dream more. And dreams normally happen towards the end of you sleep, is that right?
It was also during an offbeat version of one of those dreams where you wake up in your room. I always get those but they arent lucid. I seemed to teleport to a bedroom and the person next to me was someone I know on the other side of the world. Thats what made me click at the time. It was a new combination to me anyway, despite being the 3 common factors i can think of in my dreams
Anyway I shall follow your advice. In truth I'm a terrible sleeper - I got onto the topic after discovering and reading about Circadin rhythm sleep disorder, and remembering what happened a few nights ago. So I'll probably stick around!
