OK, yesterday night i might have had a LD, i don’t know exactly (if it really was a LD or if i only dreamt of having a LD). It went like this:
I dreamt i was WILDing, then i knew i was dreaming (before that i did not). I found myself in a train, my brother sat opposite to me, i did not focus on something, so i always looked all over the place because i knew otherwise i would lose the dream stop REM). I thought about what i could do in the dream, still always looking all over the place. I tried to fly, which was a bit difficult at first, because i wanted to boost myself into the air really fast. It didn’t really work, even as i imagined of having rockets mounted onto my feet. I just couldn’t get a real fast boost. But eventually i found myself gliding above the landscape and i enjoyed it (it was like in paradise). I even rubbed my hands while doing this to ensure myself again that it was really a dream. Then after i landed i tried to do a somersault backwards, which i did not do perfectly. then i saw some fast cars next to me and i decided to have a fast ride with them. but then i somehow instantly woke up (without the dream fading). WHY??
Now i have some questions:
-
is it normal that some dream szenarios only disappear partly? because there were still some curtains (from the train windows) in the air as i tried to fly, i had to wish them to disappear before they completely disappeared.
-
my emotions in the dream were great (at least i think they were). shouldn’t that have disturbed the LD? because i heard that emotions are not good for LDs…
-
how do i know if it really was a true LD, or if it was a normal dream, only letting me believe, that it was a LD? i think i remember of being really exited of having this LD, but the thing is: was that really me, or was the excitement part of a normal dream, like the whole LD??
-
why did i wake up instantly? the dream should have at least faded first, or not?? even then i don’t find a reason for having waked up. or was that just the normal end of the REM phase, which lets the dreams end instantly (does it?)?? but why then did i not go directly into deep sleep, but wake up? was it in fact the end of my whole sleep period (which does end in REM)?
