Sounds very much like a FA, though its very hard to tell after its happened if you didnt test it during. Definitely start doing RCs every time you wake up I know sometimes you will just want to slack off and roll over and go to bed.. but not only will you experience more FA's, you will also subconsciously become accustomed to being aware in your most hazy state of mind. This is very important.
closed my eyes and thought of what was going on. i thought of my RL body sleeping in bed, and how i was dreaming and i was just trying to gain more lucidity.
I think thats where you took the wrong turn. Take this information with a grain of salt, because everyone is different.. But I actually just mentioned this in another post of mine.
Im sure everyone can agree that very commonly in nightmare whatever you dont want to happen, does. This applies both ways to alot of regular dreams to, you just think "Oh I wonder where my friend Jim-bob is".. before you know it you open a door or go around a corner and you see him in a crowd.
I think we are very vulnerable to subconscious input while dreaming, and usually when the thought of laying in bed dreaming enters my mind.. it takes over all of my sensations. For example if I was snowboarding down a mountain I would lose the feeling of my feet clamped to the board, and very suddenly 'feel' like I'm laying in bed (Blankets, pillow, laying on back).. This is almost always followed by a loss of any auditory/visual from the previous scene. (Usually not eating, and I cant smell in dreams, dont know why.) It really does just feel like you wake up. I have plenty that just happen as I naturally slip out of a dream as well, but I can say for sure I've 'induced' a few FA's. In reality they are all just dreams, FA's can happen at any time.. not 'before or after' a dream.
I mean you really just have to think about it.
How convinced were you that you were standing in the kitchen? I know you realize you were dreaming, but I mean if you didnt know about lucid dreaming, would you know the difference? How hard would it be to switch that scene to your bed.. neither of them exist. If you can dream that you are atop Everest having a picnic with batman or whatever, Im sure you can dream you were laying in bed.. especially when you are focusing on it. Reality Checks = win, just dont do anything crazy that will wake you completely up if you are really waking up. (Unless you want to get up, DEILD's/WILD's are great during this time if you can remain half asleep)
