Sleep paralysis
So I’ve been wanting to lucid dream for the past year and a half now. I was very motivated at first but slowly started forgetting about it. I used to have a journal of my dreams (I still have it) and would sometimes start using it again, but I didn’t do anything the past months.
Just today I had a sleep paralysis. I had a weird dream, noticed that it was a dream and then suddenly „woke up“ but I didn’t actually wake up. I tried very hard to move my hands but I couldn’t. It also felt like I was extremely tired and I had to fight against falling a sleep (I did end up „falling asleep“, which woke me up)
I now want to get back into lucid dreaming. Is this dream a good sign that shows it’s very much possible to start lucid dreaming or is this just another random dream?
