not sure if i had a lucid dream?

[swagga]

Last night I woke up in the middle of the night to go to the bathroom. When I got back into bed I thought I might as well try to WILD. So I layed down on my back and it took about 30 minutes to fall into a dream. My dream was kind of confusing though. My dream was this: I woke up in my bed (inside the dream) in the same position as I was previously laying down in to WILD. I realized I was dreaming, and got out of bed. I started to float around my room, thinking "This is awesome, I can actually fly in my LD's now!". Then I woke up in my bed again (still in the dream) and see my brother and sister in my room shining lights on me. I got mad at them for interrupting my lucid dream, and told my mom that they ruined it. So my question is, was that really a lucid dream? It kind of confuses me that I woke up in my bed twice in my dream.

Translation: Waking up in your dreams is called False Awakening, or FA for short. They are a very common cause for loss of lucidity. In your case you were lucid, but lost it through the false awakening. It's common and happens from time to time. Do a reality check every time you wake up to prevent losing lucidity. If you have any questions you may post away.

It is true that this topic has been taught a lot of times, but it is true, anyways, that we must help them no matter what....every person is different. when you doubt about your lucidity, then it wasn't lucid.. doesn't matter if you, in the dream, say "oh I'm lucid, I can fly", because that's wasn't conscious... try this. think what would you do if you know you are dreaming, I mean, you come completely lucid, what would you do? that's the principal question to all the...eh...questions... bye
