I have around three horrific and intense nightmares every month. Right before the dream gets too bad and the scariest part happens, it's like my mind suddenly realizes "hey, this is just a dream; you can wake up from this at any time" and my mind begins to claw its way toward consciousness, like breaking the surface of a lake after being under water. This is a recent development, which I believe started right after my bad dreams began getting so intense and vivid.
For example, one time I dreamed that I was at a party. I went upstairs and I walked into a bedroom and this guy was holding a dead body (holding it in front of him by the collar and the waistband-kinda like a shield) and he said "here, catch!" and he slowly moved his arms back like he was going to pitch the corpse on me and the corpse started hurtling toward me in slow motion, but before it actually touched me, my mind said "no, wake up wake up!!" And I did. My mind will also wake me up before dying in other nightmare scenarios such as tornadoes and plane crashes.
I can do this with almost every nightmare. Is this lucid dreaming? If so, I'm considering looking into how I can control regular dreams (if I have the knack for it.)
Thank you.
