Thread: Is it normal to be a camera?

a lot of my (non-lucid) dreams, at least 50% of them, i'm not really a person or any sort of entity. i'm more like a camera. everything is happening but none of its happening to me and i'm not taking part in any of it. it's like i'm watching the dream the same way i watch TV. why am i so withdrawn from my own dreams? does this happen to anyone else? I've actually only started getting into lucid dreaming the past month and haven't had an LD yet but i'm recalling my dreams better and right them down every morning and this is one of the things i've noticed.
