Lucid dreaming!

[Ninja Caterpie]

So, any of you ever had lucid dreams?

If you have, what'd you do?

And any tips on helping me get lucid dreams? 8D

Woah, I never knew that was an actual phenomenon! Is that basically when you know you are dreaming and can make relatively logical decisions, but it still seems real? I think that's happened before.

I think it happens when you concentrate intensely on something as you fall asleep. It may or may not be influence by alcohol :D

I have had one before... THEY ROCK!!! Once you reallize your dreaming you can make what ever desicon you want about it! At first it was a nightmare, but then I realized I was sleeping and the scaryness went away! I truned around and changed the monster into my dog Sage. She was playful, and fun like normal. She then lead me to a fun amusment park of my own disign. Afterward, I made all the rides change into other ones. Sadly afterfard I woke up. I've been trying to have another one ever since. As for tips, you just have to find something that is out of the ordinay. Thats how I got mine...

I've tried many times, but I realize I'm dreaming and I'm like AHHHH I NEED TO WAKE UPPPPPP.

But they sound amazing.

Yes, I love it so much. It feels real too because when you're dreaming lucidly, you actually can feel what you are supposedly feeling in the dream. So, it's as if it's real. It's awesome.

It would be nice to experience one of those. Haven't yet, though once I became aware that I was dreaming but I continued to let the dream control my actions. ;(

I've had quite a few of them, but I never did anything really exciting; my mind was just too blank to think of anything at the time. :\

I had one, once. I was completely aware I was having a nightmare, and I tried to wake up, but I couldn't. Have any of you ever had one like that?

 

[Åzurε]

I've been trying off and on... I have realized I was dreaming before, but like Luck I just kinda sat back and enjoyed the ride. Makes me wish I did something ridiculous instead.

I've been trying to get a lucid dream for a while now, I can't wait until I get one! Sometimes I'll be dreaming and there will be really obvious signs that I'm in a dream but I can never seem to realize it... I just have to keep trying though! ^.^

The problem with lucid dreams is this. They are often triggered by an event (in the dream) that would not be possible in the real world, like a man with three heads shooting lasers from his nose(s). You see this weirdness and realise you can't possibly be in the real world. So far, so good. The problem, though, is that the shock of realising this is often enough to wake you up, or at least jerk you out of REM sleep. So lucid dreams are hard to come by. I've never had one myself, though I wish I had.

I've had dreams where I'm fully aware that I'm dreaming, but I've never had one where I'm able to do whatever I want in the dream. If I try to, I end up waking myself up. Also, when I have nightmares, every time, I'm able to realize that I'm having a nightmare, and I can wake myself up out of it. I would like to have an actual lucid dream where I can control what I do.

 

[Ninja Caterpie]

I'm starting to try, at least.

wikipedia ftw

Dream recalling is going...alright, I guess...But MapleStory is interfering! I can't really lucidly dream and do much when it's about Maple. :|

 

[>Feelings<]

Yes, I had a lot o lucid dreams. I'm very experienced with these sort of things...

Want some help activating it? Try out the mnemonic-initiated lucid dream. That's what I did most of the times.

Want to hear something mysterious? When I was a kid, I would sleepwalk sometimes, and even though I didn't have much control over me while doing that, I always felt that my being is trying to achieve something.
People have been freaked out by finding me in unusual places in sleep, like hanging from the window XDXDXDXD... not kidding.

 

[Devil's Guitarist]

yeah it happens to me sometimes, it's when you can actually feel and choose what to do? totally =D best dreams ever!

 

[Vigilante]

Yes, quite a few actually, one of them involved me getting shot with a shotgun. Dx

That was no dream... -loads gun- XD

I never knew such an epic thing existed. I'ma fall asleep super early now and try and get one. XD

Ahem.

 

[XxDawnfanxX]

I got to do some crazy stuff, like kiss girls I wouldn't nearly have the chance to, chase away my fears instead of them chasing me, it feels great. I wish it would happen more often.

Does that include sleeping on the top bunk of a bed and waking up on the floor? Cause thats happened to me twice like years ago! ()_() !

Yes, I've had Lucid Dreams before, they're awesome! Although they can be very difficult to control.
