i went to be on my second try to atleast work on remembering my dreams and within 1 hour i was dreaming that i was in bed, like it ws when i went to bed, and i got up to check on front door which was ajar. i locked it and tried light switches but none of them worked yet there ws power in the house… i went back to bed with my 3 boys in the room and my neice with me on the bed. i looked out my bedroom window and saw my neighbor’s dog who was bigger and blacker than normal and i could hear thunder coming close and louder… it sounded like a train and i realized it was a tornado and as i tried to get to the closet with my boys in front of me i saw the window pitch black with loudest noice and as i tried to run forward it began to pull me an i felt like i was being sucked into another vortex or something… i realized in that second i was dreaming and woke my self up to find my mouth open as if trying to scream and my body was tingling allover until i was wide awake and the tingling eased away… WHAT WAS THAT ABOUT??? please any suggestions would help…
thanks… athena
moved to lucidity intro
It sounds to me like you woke up into SP (you’re mind woke up before your body), so it’s nothing to worry about .
Your mouth being open may have just been a trick of the mind (a hallucination if you like) or you you may have just opened it in your sleep .
Hi new2ld !
Congrats for your (very short) first LD and welcome to the forum !
You could have been lucid sooner in your dream, as is seems that your “false awakening” gave you a lot of clues in order to help you to reach lucidity (like the typical “light switch” problem). Try to do more RC’s !
About tingling and others, you can experience such strange things (hallucinations) when you’re are in the hypnagogic state, that’s the state between wake and sleep. That’s rather common and I agree with Sureal : nothing to worry about.
