      Exclamation What Just Happened?

      Last night on my very first attempt at lucid dreaming, I kept repeating to myself "I will remember my dreams." I'm pretty sure until I fell asleep. I know I had a dream or two, but don't remember a thing. Then, finally I found myself looking at a red bottle of some kind and the silver writing on it kept changing, so suddenly I thought to myself, IT'S A DREAM! Then i felt an uncomfortable above my right thigh and woke up. Was it lucid, because it was my first attempt and I only wanted to remember my dream, not quite become aware.

      that is very interesting.. i am on the fence with this one because you say that you were thinking it was a dream... the real question is, did you REALIZE it was a dream? if you realized it was a dream instead of "Thinking it was a dream" then you had a lucid dream..

      any help you need just ask the staff, or anybody around here, were glad to assist you!

      I actually was aware that it was a dream, but couldn't do anything to change it except that right before I felt the uncomfort, the writing on the bottle changed and it said something to do with the words "aware" and "dream". Also, what are the odds of having a LD on your first attempt and does this increase your odds of having more of them?

      Definitely a lucid dream. Short lived and it sounds like one of those more abstract types, but the fact that you had that a-ha! moment and realized the explanation was that you were dreaming, you were lucid. Congrats

      Congrats on the lucid, there's no doubt that's what it was.But getting lucid and controlling a lucid are two completely different things, yet work the same way.

      Consider what made you lucid. You focused on things that didn't make sense or seemed out of place, and bang, lucid. Control involves the same thing, what you focus on.

      I also want to know about the uncomfortable feeling i felt in my thigh. It felt like when your leg goes to sleep and after a minute it feels weird when you move it. Was this just sleep paralysis? Because I read on this site that that sensation starts in your lower body and creeps upwards, but I only felt it in my right thigh.
