Reading this, I want to try to convert to polyphasic sleeping for a while, and when I get used to it, try to have some lucid dreams. That’d be awesome. I’d have a lucid dream 6 times a day

@Aish:

You can actually imagine pain quite vividly, which is why pinching yourself doesn’t work as a reality check.

Anyway, the way you describe it, your dream doesn’t sound very lucid to me. Lucid dreaming is when you become aware that you’re dreaming, and can control what you dream about. You wouldn’t want to dream about painful things, would you?

Hi there, Just about two weeks ago I had a terrifying dream (I’ve experienced nightmares but not like this one) I was waiting in a que for getting something then I turn around there are a about exactly 10 tigers.I ran like hell…then there was pit i fell in but before falling in one of the tigers claw pierced in my right shoulder.And then again I climbed out of it and went inside a building shut the doors tight.Next morning after that lucid dream…I was having a sharp pain in my right shoulder. Just a question Is it normal to feel pain while you get a lucid dream?

I pretty much always go for the erotic option. I had my first REALLY vivid Lucid dream a few years ago and woke up feeling like I’d been in another world. The things I made happen made it the most exciting experience I’ve ever had. I tried to explain to my friends that they should try it but I think unless you’ve experienced it firsthand, it’s hard to believe quite how crisp and tangible a lucid dream can seem.

Fighting ninjas and having sex with the most beautiful woman you can imagine while people cheer for you is quite an ego trip. Try it out.

i had the creepiest dream last night. i was at a homecoming but it was a camp. then i realized that i was in a dream and stuff just started screwing up. there was an old lady, and a man with no arms or legs (they were crudely amputated) and some creepy guy and they were in a small room and then were going to do things to me. i barely had control though. scaaary

I really enjoy it hen I have lucid dreams. The first time I ever had a lucid dream I was 12 and I finally lost control after my second false awakening. Since then I’ve done it from time to time with them becoming more frequent recently. Altho there are plenty of times I realize I’m dreaming then don’t really pay attention to the fact that I’m in a dream. Specifically I remember a dream where I was in an earthquake while in a large auditorium. People stared running and screaming as the place was coming down. All the while I’m trying to tell people “Don’t worry It is just dream.”

@Ro:

Interesting. I actually have this theory that we can (or cannot) do things in our lucid dreams based on what we BELIEVE we can (or cannot) do.

So if I deeply believe that light switches will act all funky in my dreams, they will. And I can then use that as a reality check.

Or you, you believe you can read and write in your dreams, and so you can.

There’s so much cool stuff to explore with lucid dreaming

Glad I Stumbled this page! I’m really excited to try this lucid dreaming thing. I’ve always had very vivid dreams that I can easily remember.

But… I CAN read (and write) in my dreams! The other night, I was in some sort of classroom, and there was a list of things that you shouldn’t use Google search for. Things like making shopping lists, using it for spreadsheets, etc. At the bottom of the list, I added “you should not NOT use Bing.” It was perfectly legible and in English. The strangest part was that I’m not a Bing fan at all…

@Danny:

You just reminded me…

When I was a kid (about 6 years old), I once had a really interesting dream (can’t remember the details now). But I woke up in the middle of it, and thought “Darn, I really want to know how that dream turns out!” – so I wished really hard to go back to that dream, fell asleep, and continued the dream where I left off!

Sweet dreams to you too
