Thread: A lucid dream within a dream

For me at least, this was an off the wall expieriance. I was having a regular dream & in the dream I was groggy and went to bed. I then became Lucid in my already dreaming state. When I lost lucidity I awoke back into the regular dream I was having before I fell asleep. The lucidity was very vague and contrude compared to when I have had a typical LD.
Does this make any sense to anyone and does anyone know what the heck I am taking about. I'm not even sure if I do. It is very hard to disifer and explain.

A lucid dream within a dream. Wow, how does that work?! Thats really cool, I wonder how far you could go. To just keep dreaming in a dream and so on.

Ya I here you. I was thinking the same thing. Kind of like false awakings. how far out of reality or conciousness can you get. I was quite bewildered but it was still an awesome thing
Can you go to far to get home?

Ive been meaning to post this but havent had the time or effort but something similar hapened to me a week ago. Cept i false awoke from a LD into a dream went back to bed, had another LD and then woke up in my dream again. When i woke up it felt like i had been hit in the face with a sack of glass.

Can you elaborate a little more about the glass part. Is this when you "really" awoke & what was the dream about for you to have that feeling?
Once again can we go to far to get home?

I've gone one level deep like you have, it's really disorienting!

I've also had non-lucid dreams in which I was trying to WILD. Would have been cool to succeed!

when i really awoke it felt like getting hit with glass. That and i was a little bit out of it, i say a little because i knew it was reality, small little noises and clarity of feeling in my legs is my best dreamsign. But anyways I have gone so far into a dream that i couldnt wake up... even when i tried. that was kinda scary.
