A Condition Requisite to Waking Up Is Being Asleep

This morning I woke up.
Metaphorically, you may substitute Asleep to any behavioral pattern (e.g. being self-destructive or being a quiet non risk-taking average citizen). In addition, Asleep may be a logical Predicate. If someone can give an everyday definition of a logical Predicate this would be helpful.

The other night I had a lucid dream. It felt real. I was at this gals home at her dining table and I looked at her and told her I was dreaming. I looked around and thought to myself this is so real, yet I am dreaming. I picked up a salt shaker and started wondering how amazing it was that it didn't feel like a dream yet I knew I was dreaming.

I've had lucid dreams before. They're fun. Most of mine involved breathing underwater and flying.
Lately I've been waking up in the middle of the night terrified that nothing is real.
It feels like everything is imagined, and I'm scared that I might be totally alone in a meaningless existence.
It's a weird sensation. After about 15 mins or so I'll fall back asleep. In the morning I'll remember what happened, but it seems nonsensical to me.
I've tried looking it up and I came across this:

I've had moments like that dreaming. Something happens which seems so odd and I realize I'm dreaming inside the dream

I've had some really weird dreams lately.
Started writing down the stuff I remember as soon as I wake up.
Very strange, this is what I wrote down this morning.
TINY BIKE ACROBAT
HEATHER, OTHER HEATHER, SUZANNE
TRAIN, DRUGS, DANCING
UNDERGROUND TROPICAL BIRD SHOP
SUBTERRANEAN HOME DEPOT
SEX, MUSICAL, BRITISH TEA SHOP?
SCOOBYDO?
