Thread: Natural lucid dreaming

Recently I had a near-dream experience shortly after laying down that I woke up from and remembered. Maybe it was NREM. It was definitely different from regular thought. As I was lying in bed I transitioned from regular awake thought to a much more dreamy version of the thought. I wish I remembered more detail so I can explain it better. I think there were characters that I was looking at or imagining as characters more so than when you just think of someone's actions or words, but it transitioned from regular awake thought and stayed on topic. I may have imagined the characters doing more random things than you would if you were just thinking of events in your life or maybe the characters did some stuff on their own with me knowing I wasn't thinking it up in the normal conscious way. It was the first time I remembered transitioning from wakefulness to sleep or something so near sleep.
