Hey everyone!

I am 27, within the last 6 months I somehow am able to dream every night and control all of my actions, even after waking up and falling back asleep. I am not aware I am dreaming until I force myself to open my eyes just to make sure I am still in bed, but after doing so, I resort right back into the dream. None of these dreams are sexual or bad, but when I am dreaming I can do everything from drive automobiles, grocery shop, run, anything, and I somehow control everything? My REM cycles are obviously long and in depth, wake up with a ton of eye crust every morning. It's just been a weird transitition, just wandered if anyone else has experienced this?

P.S. I am not crazy or anything, have a Masters Degree, just has been weird, any suggestions would be helpful!
