Lucid Dreaming | False awakening dream journaling

I've recently started to keep a dreamjournal, next to my bed. Before, I just reconstructed the dream in my head every morning.

Now I have this recently occuring problem (2x in 10 days) that I wake up in bed, take my notebook and cellphone (to give my some light) and I write down my dream. Last night I wrote down about half a page and I remember I flipped it for a new page. I went back to sleep and in the morning when writing down another dream, I turned the page to see what I wrote during then night and nothing was there. I searched my whole notebook but no note of that dream in the middle of the night.



Could it be that I wake up in a dream and do fake dream journaling? It's quite annoying because I really seem to think I'm awake, everything just feels so real. I try to do as many reality checks as possible (with awareness!!!) but for some reason I always seem to forget it while waking up during the middle of the night.



Anyone has experienced this before? Is this considered lucid dreaming? It feels like inception to me: waking up within a dream.



Thank you already in advance!



Best,



Risdt
