i had a very similar experience today so i searched through a lot of posts to find this one…
okay its a bit different…but here goes…
i woke up in RL after a short nap…a really short one…went to the bathroom came back…n i was no more sleepy after that, but i dint want to get out of bed…so i just let myself lay there for a while, but then from what i recall, i started daydreaming, to a different setting…this daydreaming felt exactly like the way its proposed in https://community.ld4all.com/t/lucid-daydreaming-ldd/31485/9
i used to do daydreaming before…but this one felt like a lucid dream with very low lucidity…i could feel that i was in that dream but it wasnt the way senses usually respond in an LD…on top of it…i snapped in and out of that daydream…like my focus shifted from daydream to real life a couple of times…since there was some noise around in the real life…
why i’m calling them as daydreams and not ND, because owing to those noises i was constantly aware that my body is lying on the bed…and unlike ND, i was consciously making the next scenes/characters appear in that daydream…the weird thing is i recall that when someone shouted from outside, i would momentarily realise that i’m under sleep paralysis…n while daydreaming i recall some of the times when i changed positions in the bed, did some weird actions like celebrating that i’ve learnt to control things so well…when nothing of it could have actually happened…i was laying still for that half hour…
all this merged in so closely that i cant even explain well…
was it like a daydream within a dream?
because if it was just a daydream then why did it feel so different than others that i have in RL…
n if it was a daydream within a dream then why dint i get lucid the way i usually do…is my lucidity taking a downward plunge? i mean i was constantly aware that it was a dream and that my real body is lying on the bed…
