I think my dreams are just too realistic. I just can’t seem to get lucid! And what was THAT about?
Last night, (my third night on trying to get lucid) my mum woke me up because she was pretty angry with me. so it was about 8 AM which is early for me. (it’s still summer holidays in germany…) I was angry because i couldn’t even remember one dream… felt like absolutely had none, i was very exhausted when i went to bed.
so i got up, and checked your replies on this forum. feeling too tired, i decided i’d go back to bed and catch some more sleep, and give it another try. i held on to my fob watch (my main- reality check tool ) and said to myself “when i start dreaming, i’ll realize i’m dreaming.” but not that often. like 10 times maybe. i was in some sort of a doze for maybe 3 hours… where i’d kinda felt more awake and then drifting off, i’d feel like i was half asleep… at some point, i felt like i’d just see white light before my eyes, nothing else. i said to myself “oh my god, now don’t ruin this by feeling to exited!” (i wasn’t really fully aware of anything, i rather felt like i took medication or something, i couldn’t think of anything but to sort of stay calm.) For some reason, i automatically tried to open my “asleep eyes” and not my “awake eyes.” like i read in this forum. As i said, i didn’t think about this forum, it was more like the thought was stuck in my brain and it was one of the few that suddenly got to me
then i was in a dream, but i wasn’t lucid. i dreamed that i was lying in my bed. i thought i was really lying inside my bed. then i heard my brother and sister coming up the stairs asking if i was still asleep. i felt really sweaty, and turned around to look at my digital alarm clock. (why didn’t i look at my FOB WATCH like i said to myself i would when i’d wake up?!
) the digital clock was a different colour than the one i have, but it seemed realistic. it said “17:05” i thought “***, have i really slept this long?” and i stood up. i remember then doing something in my room like folding away clothes or talking to my siblings and something else important, which might have been before that dream or after, but i can’t really remember much of it. i only realized it was a dream when i woke up in my real bed, looked at my digital clock again and it said “12:30”.
goddammit! ohno i mean i was looking at a clock in my dreams! i could’ve realized it, but it was just too realistic! but why did i look at my digital watch (wich is next to my bed) instead of my fob watch?
sorry for the long post! i would be exited to hear what you think about that help! i mean, what was that about anyway?
