A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. The best ones are thoughts that many people can relate to and they find something funny or interesting in regular stuff.

I false awaken every night and basically every time I have a lucid dream. So the first thing I ask myself when waking up is if everything makes sense

I found it really scary. It think it is horrible to have that every night. I used to do the same thing. However, I found that the only times I felt I needed to check, I was sleeping. So, being unsure about whether I am asleep is actually already a good indicator.

Same. I just assume I'm dreaming. Not really scary though. I can easily turn it into a lucid dream

I think what happens with me is that I want to wake up and I can't and then I panic and everything becomes scary. So, it is probably just that I want to wake up and I cannot.
