FIRST TRUE LUCID DREAM!!!

Date: 6/1/2016

It has been 6 days since I did research on lucid dreaming and began recording my dreams each morning. The first night I almost experienced my first lucid dream, but was unable to control it and got too excited that I woke up once I realized I was dreaming. This was my first true lucid dream! I woke up and began writing this summary down approximately 1 hour after going to bed, so this all must have occurred very early in REM sleep. I briefly woke up in the middle of the night to a reality check notification I set. It was extremely hard to move my body and probably took ~30-40 seconds to reach my phone to turn off the alarm because my body (and especially my hands) were numb and tingly. I felt extremely heavy. I believe this was sleep paralysis that I was able to overcome. When I did manage to turn off my alarm, I began doing 'virtual' reality checks as I fell back asleep by thinking about poking my finger through my palm. I was unable to poke it through for a few attempts, but then it went through, and I knew I was dreaming. As with the first time, my heart began to beat a lot faster since I was excited. But I was able to keep it under control this time and continue dreaming. I had a body at times, other times not while the dream was forming.. I woke up in my bed in the dream and was in a hotel watching tv. Since I knew I was dreaming, I entered the tv and flew in a jet through a beautiful blue sky with amazing clouds. I became the jet since I wanted to try flying in my first lucid dream. I then appeared back in my hotel. Since I knew I was lucid dreaming, who wouldn't want to try sex?! (Fair warning: I provided a lot of detail) I heard a lot of girls in the hall So I opened my door and saw a few girls scurry into a hotel room across the hall. I went and sat in a chair and tried conjuring up my ex unsuccessfully while jacking it (tmi?). I had my fully formed body at this point. All the sudden the door opens and a lot of guys walk in through the door and sit down. I distinctly noticed that all the faces were blurry except for one, which was an old cross-country teammate named Tyler. I was then able to recognize almost everyone else's faces. Collin, Cameron K, Dom, and two other blurry faces, one sitting next to me, one standing. Cameron was on the end of the couch (which was a chair earlier) opposite to me. They then encouraged me to go try doing it with some of those girls in the hall. So I went out. There were some doors with a lot of furniture stacked in front of them. There was a guy and a girl having sex outside the door right when I opened it. The girl turned into a guy and said he hates when that happens, and hates it more when it is finished. Gross! Time to try again... Lol. Outside the next door down the hall was another guy and girl having sex. That's better... Haha! I never had sex, which was fine. I then woke up inside the dream from the sex lucid dream within the main lucid dream and my pants were wet (I wonder why). I became a jet again and was brought to a wooden platform where there was a larger blonde girl sitting in a chair next to me. There was a guy who told us we were going to lucid dream. Then we started lucid dreaming together. I began dreaming again inside my dream. I was back in my hotel room watching tv. My mom was getting ready for the day in the bathroom. I got up and walked over to her and told her that I was lucid dreaming and that I was not awake and asked her to not wake me. I actually thought she was awake and observing me while I was lucid dreaming. I asked her to tell me all the weird things that I was saying and doing during the dream when I would wake up. Occasionally, the dream would try to turn dark when my mom would start walking quickly toward me and her face and body would go black and scary. But I was easily able to overcome this because I knew it was a dream. I would just hug her and say 'I love you'. One time it was pretty scary so I just said 'let's go turn on these lights' and walked to the bathroom to turn on the lights and hugged her again. I went back to bed and woke up sitting in the chair next to my mom on the wooden platform again. We were both amazed... I completely thought my mom was actually awake during that and I was sleep walking but in a lucid dream. My mom thought the same since we lucid-dreamed together. She then turned back into the larger blonde woman. I then woke up (for real) and was even more amazed that I was laying peacefully in my bed. Essentially, this lucid dream consisted of two separate lucid dreams within the one main lucid dream (the sex dream and the dream about my mom). Inception! I can't remember where specifically, but I remember I made some strange noises throughout the dream, such as blowing air through my closed lips to make a fart sound. I believe this was closer to the end, possibly when I returned to the wooden platform and saw my mom sitting next to me. Such an amazing experience lucid dreaming for the first time! Sorry for the gross details... I just felt like I had to record everything I could.
