My first lucid dream was when I was probably about 5 or 6 years old. I was dreaming that my city was overrun by poop monsters. I was flying with my arms flapping like a bird looking down at my house with poop monsters coming out of the sewer. I flew down to the poop monsters and became trapped in a poop pit.

I had this dream 3 nights in a row and woke up after being caught in the poop pit each time. Also the world didn't look normal. Everything was like animation and moved at about what 10fps looks like in a video game. Very strange.

Why be so concerned about reality, the thing that matters is what brain produces anyway. Anybody know what the explanation is on why humans perceive real as better? Please no fallacies like becouse real is real.

As for lucid dreaming. I almost never dream, and even if I do it is about mundane task that I did that day, but I am apathetic.

i've had a lucid dream where i was swimming at the bottom of a very very deep pool (~20ft) and started to run out of oxygen. I started gasping and discovered that i could breath under water. then i swam around and tried to explore lanks and ponds around where i live. It was awesome. i think the dream was influenced in part from the fact that i work as a lifeguard.

I have a lot of awesome dreams where I do really crazy stuff like fight aliens and so on and yet I can't seem to realize I'm actually dreaming. Surprisingly enough, I find myself thinking If I'm dreaming and I usually disprove it and realize I was dreaming only after I wake up.

Yeah, I have a lot of falling dreams myself. Even if I usually wake up sweating and in an unsettling manner, I like falling dreams the most as I'm always amazed how real they feel, even if the sensation is just suggested by the brain.

Me too my dreams are usually mad epic and I know it's a dream and I'm like nOOOOOO LEMME STAY LONGER. I can also fly by flapping my arms/doing pushups on the air. It's always fun until zombies come but my brain knows zombies = gg the world so I have to wake myself up cause they scare me too much.

Fucking zombies.


Hahaha whenever I dream I fly, I control it by doing breatstroke in the air in whatever direction I want to go in. XD

Once I had that "dream inside of another dream inside of another dream" thingy... I just kept "waking up" just to realise: "crap I'm still dreaming". When I finally woke up I wasn't sure if I was really in my room. Scary shit, took me like 30 minutes to get myself together.

I have lucid dreams every once in a while, although i haven't for a couple years. The last one i remember was watching a gigantic meteor fall toward the earth (armageddon style) and standing with a bunch of people. Then i realized i was dreaming and woke up.

On the last two pages I believe only 1 person actually described a lucid dream. Lucid dreams are where you can control your surroundings in a dream. You can think about something and make it appear at will. They aren't just vivid dreams. You are aware you are dreaming, and aware that by knowing this that you can change what you are dreaming about. From my personal experience, I do believe there are different levels of your awareness and your ability to manipulate the dream. Sometimes it comes easy, where I can simply think "I want to be [wherever]," and I'm suddenly there. Other times it requires me to focus really hard on what I want. For instance, to make an object appear in a less lucid dream, I often have to "feel" in in my hands (like a gun or something) before it becomes visible and "real." It must be that I have greater control over the touch sensation in a dream than the visual, and the visual section of my brain is influenced by the feel.

What's really weird is 'waking up' from a lucid dream into a non-lucid dream. Since the first dream was lucid, and I have a memory of it, the second will start with me waking up (out of bed or some other place lying down), and I will then think it's reality until I actually wake up out of the non-lucid dream. I also remember several dreams every night, so I don't know if that is related to a high frequency of lucid dreams. Most of my dreams are completely non-lucid, or with an awareness that it's a dream, but without any manipulation. When I go too quickly into a lucid state (gaining awareness that it's a dream and that I can change things), sometimes it wakes me up.

I also used to experience sleep paralysis (which is like the opposite of a lucid dream in a way), so I don't know if the two are related. Lucid dreams are usually great, but sleep paralysis is like the worst psychological torture ever, especially if it lasts for what seems like hours.

Sleep paralysis is the scariest shit ever, had it happen to me once whilst in a car journey, bad experience especially because my head was on a seat and it was bumpy journey!

Lucid dreaming is amazing if an effective technique is learnt to trigger it. I once read how you should always draw something (eg an eye) on the back of your hand in real life, so when you see it you will think to yourself 'Oh yea I'm in real life'. However once you're in a dream and realize you don't have this 'eye' on the back of your hand, this connection can trigger yourself into lucidly dreaming.

I also read up some girls lucidly dream to experience orgasms, It was scientifically experimented. xD

Sleep paralysis is a very unpleasant experience and it explains like 99% of these "ghost stories" from hotels and such.

Does that include other people having lucid dreams to satisfy their sexual fantasies? That's just screwed up.

So I had this once. It was frosh year and I woke up in my single room in the Quad. I brushed my teeth, washed my face, did my hair, got dressed, and then opened my door to go out. That's when I noticed something was wrong. The hallway had transformed into a battleground. There was blood smeared on the walls, lights were flickering, and trash was everywhere. The lounge in front of my room was a wreck. It looked like something out of a zombie movie - I had slept through an Apocalypse!

But zombie stories aren't real. So this is where I realized I was dreaming... But amazingly I did not wake up even after the realization like I usually do! I had read about lucid dreaming before and this is when I got all super excited. I was lucid dreaming! I could create my own dream! So I got all excited and went back into my room (the hallway was still scary). I wanted to test it by flying! FLYING! I always wanted to fly. But I looked up and realized a roof was above me, so I ran over to my window and opened it. Then I took a step back and was just about to jump through the window when an idea hit me:

WHAT IF I'M NOT DREAMING?!

What if I'm just like really tired and delirious instead of actually dreaming? Then I'd just be jumping out of my third story window head first like an idiot. While I was contemplating this quite distrubing thought, I woke up.

Yeah. I didn't get to fly, have x-ray vision, be a pro soccer player, or whatever. Instead, I was just in my room too afraid to jump. lol. Much like how the wise Shia said in Transformers, ("Fifty years from now, when you look back at your life, don't you want to say you had the guts to get in the car?") to this day, I want to say I had to guts to jump. Oh well.
