If you feel like you can think clearly and are questioning if you are dreaming but are unsure, you are not.
All methods of lucid dreaming aim at making you think clearly and question if you are in a dream. With that thought, it should be quite obvious to confirm you are in fact in a dream. Dreams are really not that good, sleeping is just kinda like a heavy suspension of disbelief.

This must depend on the person.

Dreaming is dreaming and being awake is being awake.

Completely different experiences for me, can't imagine how someone could confuse them, though people obviously do, so they must be experiencing it differently.
