Lucid Dreaming Advice

I think i misunderstood, does anyone reality check IRL, thinking you might be dreaming? I mean, not as a joke.

Yeah, that's how reality checks are supposed to work. You build the habit IRL to carry it to the dream world.

Thinking you can just know when you're dreaming and not is a very rookie mistake. You'll fall for "Oh yeah, my neighbor bought that giraffe yesterday" every single time until you realize your sleeping mind doesn't stand a chance. That's why it's important to always reality check the moment the idea you might be dreaming comes to mind; reality checks are the only way to verify if you're dreaming or not, as your brain's logic centers are mostly asleep while asleep.

Yep. Realised that when I once did a reality check, finger went through my palm and I stupidly thought, “Oh yeah, I’m dreaming.” And then a second later, showed it to a dream character and continued to think nothing of it.
