ever since i started LDing, i have had good dream recall, but stranger dreams. I have had about 5 or 6 ND the last three nights, and acouple of them seemed like was was really awake IRL in them. Not IRL like being in a LD, a different one. For example today i woke up really tired, and then i just sat there and after a while i just started dreaming, and it was a dream where i met Elliott smith which was a dream i have always wanted. But throughout the dream at certains times i saw what i was looking at before i started Dreaming (when i was awake), so it was like dreaming with my eyes open. Im sorry if im confusing you but heres another example.
If any of you havn’t seen Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless mind, there is a scene where Jim Carrey tries to wake up by widening his eyes open, and his eyes really did open on his body IRL, and everything he was looking at IRL was blurry, it was like that happening in a ND (only i wasn’t trying to wake up or opening my eyes more with my fingers).
If that was confusing to anyone, tell me and i will try to explain it more.
Also about the weird ND, i have been having dreams the past few days that are things that i have been planning, like me and my friend are going downtown in the future, and i had dreams about that. Mainly the dreams im having are things i have planned but havent happened yet.
If anyone thinks these are confusing i will explain it better, but if you did understand my bad writing (lol) then is this normal? Or is it a sign of a better chance of becoming lucid?
Also when i was trying to get to sleep lastnight i was repeating “I will dream and i will relise im dreaming”, and i as i repeated that i started feeling like i was in a dream repeating that, i didnt feel like i was in reality. Then i gulped and i was just back where i was, laying in bed repeating those things. What was i doing? I felt like i was entering the dream world tho, but i was still awake.
