Paralysis
So last night I had a pretty interesting lucid dreaming experience. I realized I was in a sort of sleep paralysis stage and then eased myself into the dream. The dream(s) were not that exciting but I played with some lucid dreaming stuff I would been meaning to try out. I am not really sure where I was. It was inside and the lighting was really bad, so I tried to imagine that there was a light, but nothing really worked. I found it really hard to walk straight and kept losing my balance in the same way I do when I am waking up from a lucid dream. When I tried to put my hands together, it was like they were magnets that would not let each other touch. I woke up several times but had no problem returning to the lucid dream each time it happened. I probably woke up and returned to my dream at least three times. I was finally able to improve the lighting by imagining it was daytime and walking outside. At one point, when I returned to the dream, I had myself call someone I wanted to show up and they arrived shortly after. When they arrived, I kissed them. Again, it was kind of like when I tried to touch my hands together--the contact was not really happening. I woke up from my dream and was unable to return to a lucid dream, but I did have a very detailed nonlucid dream after that.
