Hey. I'm new here!
I was just wondering, is this lucid dreaming..

Yesterday I fell asleep on my sofa (), in my dream I was asleep in the position that I had actually fell asleep. Everything was the same. Anyway, in the dream my mum tried to wake me up but couldn't because I was dying in my sleep (in the dream). It all felt so real. Basically I knew this was a dream, and I was just so freaked out by the fact that I was dying that I woke myself up from my sleep.
I don't know if that is lucid dreaming, and I don't know how it happened. It probably isn't but I just thought I'd ask here
