    Yeah, unfortunately my weak brain instantly wakes up as soon as I realize I’m in a dream, the rare times it happens

      Focus on something up close in your dream, like the texture of a wall or table, it’ll pull you back into the dream. Works for me!

      The other suggestion is to spin around, but I did that to stay in a dream once and noclipped through the floor. Which woke me up.

        I was often sent flying with no way to come back down. Went up fast. Not great for anxiety. The “focusing on stuff” trick does work, though if I overdid it I also woke up because I tried engaging my senses too much.
