My First intentionally induced lucid dream

Boy, was it a weird one. It was infact just last night, as I am new to this kind of thing.

After a solid hour of trying, it worked. I obtained a lucid dream for I don't know how long.

It was a weird experience, it was like I could feel both my real world body and the drea body at the exact same time. I felt my body numbly laying there, yet I felt myself walking, breathing, ect in the dream. I remember it entirely well with every single detail. I remember the cracks on the walls as I walked down this straight hallway, the old wooden door, and the unnatural darkness. As I fell into slumber in the real world, I woke up in the dream, when I looked around, I noticed I was in some sort of castle-like hallway that was decaying. I turned around only to see there was no plausible reason for how I got there, it was like I just appeared there. So I figured "Okay, I guess I keep going"

I went down the hallway, and when I opened the door, it was this almost unnatural darkness in it, yet I felt calm by, almost welcomed. (I'm afraid of the dark.) I was almost instantly sucked inside. Yet I didn't feel forced, something was calling to me. I noticed that I actually recognised this dark room from somewhere, just by looking into the darkness. After this point, it's weird, it was like I blacked out in the dream. I don't remember much around this point but I was just floating there as if in a stasis, and time felt like it was irrelivent, like it was paused. But I started to hear something that I must have thought was in the real world because I heard a door opening and got scared, I tried my hardest to wake up, but I just couldn't. Then I heard the alarm and woke up.

This is my first post so sorry if it's long, and if you read it thanks. It was my first intentionally induced lucid dream, but I have memories of a couple more if anyone wants to hear about them. I'll probably post them at some point anyway.

It's not too long. You can post as long as you want. It sounds like a WILD, right? It is very interesting. Do you have any dream goals you would like to do?

Yes, I'm hoping to at some point be able to control what happens in my dream, if that's even possible. But I hope I can get to a specific dream, and meet a specific figure that keeps showing up there, over and over, haunting me.

Of course it is possible! You can even pretend the dream is a drawing and move your hand to change the color and stuff. You can fly, change scenery, change anything. You can do ANYTHING you can imagine .
