[QUOTE=Zinayzen;29828533] Also, (assuming you're a virgin), it'll feel EXACTLY like jerking off, so honestly it's probably not worth your time anyway.[/QUOTE] Damn. Well I'll try for flying next time instead, I'll just have to ignore the amphibious pimply hide that seduces me so. :ssh:
[QUOTE=Zinayzen;29828533]Don't try to have sex with a purple frog. Or any animals, for that matter. Sex is difficult enough to simulate with humans, I can't even imagine how confused your brain would be if you tried to fuck an amphibian. Also, (assuming you're a virgin), it'll feel EXACTLY like jerking off, so honestly it's probably not worth your time anyway.[/QUOTE] what the fuck fucking animals in a dream [editline]14th May 2011[/editline] holy shit im so high on paint fumes right now

Very disturbingly fun. Most of the time, I start and then something happens, like they just disappear and leave any clothes that they happened to be wearing, leaving me very confused.

Tonight, I declare war upon my antiself. I have had it with him blocking me from talking to my sub. No refuge shall save him from the horror I shall bear down. It ends soon.
You cant declare war on your anti-self! It is your evil, you cant shoot it, hit it, or harm it in any way. It is you.

I'm staying clear away from this conversation.
Opinions of dream mp3s? I got one from dreamviews and got SP soon after listening to it. [URL]http://www.dreamviews.com/f44/reallys-ultimate-lucid-mp3-here-35033/[/URL] I've been wanting to try "binaural beats" but I'm not for the life of me paying for it to see if it works or not. I have a question about SP - I only achieve it when I'm trying to but I'm not entirely sure if it is SP though. I feel the sensational surge but I know if I want to move I can without any problems. Is it actually SP? had 2 LDs on saturday which I'm pleased about. Most of my LDs are towards the end of my dream, so I'll go lucid and within a minute I'll wake up which is annoying. Even with spinning / hand rubbing it'll fade. Although I remember in one I looked at my hand intently and it became vivid and bright green fields and a blue sky appeared infront of me which was lovely but soon after it faded and I woke up. Is it just inevitable that I'll wake up seeing as it's near the end of the dream or is there something else I can do make sure I don't wake up for a while longer? I'm pretty sure I'm not shocked or excited enough to wake up.

There's only one brand of binaural sounds I've ever tried and that was i-Doser. I first found out about it when I searched random Youtube videos. Those are crippled and won't do jack shit but I got interested so I tracked the forums down. Read the guide how to do stuff and torrented all of the .drg files. At the time I had sleeping problems so using some like Insomniac (designed to put you to heavy sleep) and Sleeping Angel (milder version of Insomniac) proved useless. [U]However, the effects started appearing[/U] after I kept trying. It took around 8 failures before I actually got [B]really[/B] droozy when listening to either of those two doses. Apparently it was just my brain getting synchronized with the beats or something. After that I started doing some more complicated stuff, like using a happy dose right before I fall asleep. Result? [I][U]Happy dreams.[/U][/I] So yeah, usually they cost a fuckton but if you find a good torrent they're fun as hell to use, at least for me. They help with sleep as well, Insomniac always guarantees me to have a 9-12 hour sleep no matter how awake I feel. Sleeping Angel is just like falling normally asleep, if you're already full of energy you wake up after 20 minutes.

I won't go into a long post about this because I'm tired, so: tl;dr hurr durr placebo, try it if you want (torrent, obviously), but don't expect results that are any different.
Given, binural beats are placebos, but still, who said placebos were a bad thing? If it helps, do it.
So I tried the ideomotor response yesterday, I got some interesting responses. My sub wants me to get a LD for myself at least for the first time, even if it wants to talk. Last night I asked it if I didn't get a LD that night if it would give me a dream that has me going through HL2, it agreed. When I woke up, I remember having a dream that was me playing TF2 as the spy just going on stabbing sprees. It was probably one of the most fun dreams I can remember having. Although, I wanted to know why I didn't have a dream about HL that night. My sub's response was that it knew it would have been more fun. It also got the idea from me wondering what dream I should have it give me.
I had a fucking weird, yet terrifying dream the other night. It was pretty much me and my family holed up in our house during some sort of zombie apocalypse, except nothing was destroyed. There were no bodies and no barricades either. Just zombies outside following anyone that they saw... It was fucking weird. My mum went outside several times to the shop across the road from me and came back with the zombies merely following. It was still fucking scary and there was much emphasis on locking the door... Later on in the dream my grandad smashed through the french doors at the back of my house with his shirt off and holding a kayak paddle. Then the locks on the door stopped working and I was laying on the floor under the window trying to hide because the zombies were looking in. :byodood: Fucking terrifying. :ohdear:
Okay, so I've gone a little bat-shit insane from working on my car for FUCKING ELEVEN HOURS IN A ROW AAAHHGGG. Lets see what dreams happen tonight. Should be good; I'm already starting to see things move in my peripheral vision. [editline]16th May 2011[/editline] I HATE CARRIAGE BOLTS FUCK ASS TITS
An interesting thing has happened. I am aware of what has been happening with myself. I finally understand the true reason for my battle. Humans fear the unknown. And in this lies the reason, the purpose. My thoughts clouded of late are clear. It all came to me in a dream. This dream. "I dreamed of my paradise, and as usual it was in a constant state of flux. As I watched it, I realised how foolish it was to battle myself, and at this realisation for some reason, My Sc and Anti-self merged. The being that came from it was not good, nor evil. It turned its head to me and smiled, it said in a whisper that i could hear clearly, "My name is tom." He was dressed entirely in grey, his right hand seemed to glow, while the left hand seemed to do the opposite, it seemed to suck all light away from it. It was the combination of negative and positive. My dream world stablised, The figure stood laughing, "All this time you have thought you were dealing with your anti-self and sub-conscious, But I am your Sub-conscious, All of this is simply the beginning my friend." And that is the moment I woke. Confusing to most I bet. But hey, what can you do. For me it is a new dawn. I have spent my day undoing the wrongs that I have done, to the best of my abilitys. And while it did not work all round, at least I tried. Goodbye, and good dreams.

Holy shit I turned the city to marble. All of those creatures got out of the ground completely. The smaller ones looked like Clots from Killing Floor and the Hell Knight from Doom 3 was in it's regular colours. There was a new one. It looked like a Husk from Killing Floor, mixed with the Patriarch and bat wings. It looked...well...creepy. Knowing we could beat it, both I and Waltz had an amazing aerial battle with it. That part of the dream iz fuzzy but I remember flying and explosion and having loads of fun. After a while those smaller Clot-like creatures jumped and grabbed my arms, legs and neck. Their hands were everywhere and I couldn't move. Slowly they buried me under a huge pile of them and I felt like I was choking. I have no claustrophobia, but at the time I was fucking scared. Then the ground broke apart and I fell. I woke up sweating like hell. Never going there again, though I'm interested in knowing what happened to Waltz. He kept fighting that thing..

As for the messages that you sent to me, I ended up discarding them. I hope that you're serious; while I don't want to derail the thread, some of the things that you said, and the threats you made were really... intimidating. So naturally, I got worried again. I suppose I need to apologise, for introducing you to this all (which in turn brought the years of issues out). Please understand, I only did (and still do) what I thought was best (I was so naive at the time). I want you to be alright, obviously, but I don't want others getting involved either. You should be proud of yourself, for resolving it. If I may ask, how did things go in the week you were absent? I've been trying to guess things (I guessed it was quite bad, with the intention of getting you against me), but I'm still curious. (I've been a friend of Uroborus for quite a while, for those who didn't know.)

Also, if someone switches places with a separate personality and kind of...well, floats in her or his own mind does that count as dreaming?
Sorry, I know, but I ended up PMing Zin about them because I was concerned. I just wanted to make things clear; I'm sure Zin's post to me a couple of pages ago confused everyone else. I've been lurking here for a very long time (since V1), and I'd really like to start posting here now. I was also active on the Steam group chat (but that was hardly about lucid dreaming most of the time).

Isn't it just like a daydream?
[QUOTE=Birdman101;29863678]Isn't it just like a daydream?[/QUOTE] You just ponder around while something controls your body and does whatever it wants. You could call it autopilot with it's own will. And too late, done it several times already. Shit's actually pretty swell as long as you can take over when you want to. If you can't get back on top you're in deep shit. Subpersonalities are abnormal for a reason. They ain't friendly too often.
cool

[QUOTE=E1025;29872310]How did you do ideomotor response? Sounds quite interesting.[/QUOTE] I just wrapped a yo-yo string around my fingers and let the thing dangle. After getting it settled I started to picture it swinging left and right. After it did that by it's self I just kind-of thought to my sub and told it to swing the yo-yo left and right for no, back and forth for yes.
I usually use a pen inbetween my thumb and pointer finger. Less random swaying and more definite motion.
