I'm dreaming sitting in my lazyboy chair, a bad feeling comes and takes over my dream before I was haveing a good lucid dream so in my dream I back out of the dark and red bad part of the dream and go back to flying my ship or what everallthe sudden it takes over again showing me horrible images and controlling my dream taking it to a bad place .so itry and wake myself and I succeed. And to my dismay. I had no control of my left arm in real life . My arm was extended up in the air and my fingerures were writeing something in the air and makeing shapes. My thumb started wigglig really fast in a wave motion like a snake and my ring finger flicked back and forth kinda like typing. Then withmy thumb just flying wiggleing my arm slowly pulls my hand down town in front of my face so I could see it clearly . And then it stoped I clieched my fist and possitit gained control. I couldn't believe it and I never heard anytging like it. I always keep things like this to myself. I later tried to recreat the motion that my thumb was creating it was very hard and my knucle poped I could doit neart as fast. Let me know if anyone has heard of this . Iy was like my arm was takin over by aliens or possessed. Please help if you can.

I've never heard of anything like that before, either, but that doesn't mean it doesn't happen to other people.

It sounds like the part of your brain that controls your hand was asleep and part of your brain was awake.

As long as it didn't last for too long and you couldn't hurt yourself or anyone else with your hand, it's probably not a problem.

If you are worried about it, you can see a doctor.

Something similar did happen to me years ago. I was a teen-ager and riding in the back seat of the car on our way home from a family vacation. I fell asleep and dreamed I was playing the piano. I wake up to my sister saying "What are you doing?" I look down at my hands and I'm doing the motions of playing the piano. I stop in amazement. I can't play in real life.
