Yeah, it totally does seem like a trance. I tried to do it on purpose when I went to bed last night.

Never in the past have dreams felt so much like memories for me, like I've always had dreams either feel realtime before my eyes, whether lucid or not. When I do have lucid dreams I basically can just observe still. I had a strange one recently but won't explain that rn

Have you tried holding and directing the attention? Releasing control and seeing where things go is a legic spiritual practice but shouldn't we humans naturally rebel against that.

I'm gonna try to get more control of it, for now any time I'm conscious of it they just end though. I rly don't wanna come off as a larper or something, but I did have one prophetic dream when I was kid, and my dream states have always been so vivid with other oddities happening. Like dreaming close friends' emotions. In reverse, one time my best friend actually dreamed what I was experiencing in near real time. It was the most specific things that it couldn't had been anything else, was def a wtf universe moment

I will tell you how to remember more clearly. It is like remembering a dream. Realize the programming within the dream, as in act like you are a part of that program, while still maintaining your grasp on what you really feel and think. Do these simultaneously without getting lost, all the while tracing events and thoughts as they come up, creating a story with clear stones of remembrance you can reference. Do this in the time right between sleep and awake, where you are daydreaming, but you can actually see it. Then hold as still as possible when you are back mostly into consciousness. Before you move, trace each memory via the stones of remembrance. As long as you can remember the stones you can fill in the details.

You mean recalling the dream before fully waking up?

It is applicable to dreams and visions in general.
