I recently experienced a false awakening. I got out of bed, but then woke up in my bed. I was fascinated by the fact that I had just experienced a false awakening. I got out of bed. Then I woke up in my bed. I was really interested in what was happening, but I sort of panicked and started trying to find reality. I now regret that and wish I had just enjoyed it. I started having one false awakening after another. I kept trying to get out of bed, only to find myself in bed. The false awakenings were lasting about half a second each, but I could not find reality. I would sit up, and then find myself still lying down. It happened over and over. Then I finally really woke up, too tired to get out of bed immediately, as always. I should have known that if I were getting straight out of bed upon waking, I was not in my everyday reality. I hope I can experience that again and really appreciate it. |

How do you know you are not dreaming right now?

Every .00022 seconds, somewhere in the world, a lucid dreamer uses the can.
I usually have a false awakening or two per LD. I've almost learned to use them to my advantage. I don't know what it is, but it seems like everytime I wake up again, something is different which really helps make me lucid. One time a monkey jumped on me in one awakening and I was like "Ok, now I have to be dreaming." |

I think almost every dreamer can use FA's as a RC, most people have had at least one FA so it makes sense to check the reality of your situation the second you wake up, especially if it's from a dream |

"100% success you bitch"
Wow. It sounds like you had a busy night, waking up and such. As Glorfindel_III said, though, FAs can make for good RCs. |

Sounds cool, if you just go with the flow and keep waking up. |
