I have a slight question. When i go to sleep. I know time is running. I can tell when I have been sleeping for an hour or five minutes. The thing is. That is all I can tell. If I dream, I have no memories of it. All I know is that can feel time passing, but can not do anything but just sit their and wait for 6:30 to roll by so I can start to gain some muscle control. The fuck is with me? I do not think it is lucid dreaming as the OP talks about because everything in the dream is blank. Black is the only description I know because I have my eyes closed.
Why does it feel that everytime im in a dream i keep feeling like im about to wake up and i feel like i need to pull myself in to sleep longer or something like that.
Hi lucid dream.
So I was on a hill with my friends, probably for a picnic or something. Few seconds later, 4 fucking tornadoes appear out of nowhere, they were at around fifty meters distance, and roaring near. Since I was scared shitless, as I would be in real life, I sprinted towards the nearest house
It was like a Japanese storage, had a lot of food and fruits on the shelf.
My friends waited there, staring at the food while I searched the other rooms.
In the second room a girl was sitting on the floor talking at the phone, I said hello and waited till she finished to talk. (She looked like Horo from Spice and Wolf) she told me that the tornadoes were "cursed" and I wasn't able to get any drink in my body and thus my lungs will dry out, THE FUCK ?
This dreams are incredibly realistic, fuck damn.

I just realized I'm going to have $10k before school starts, I'll be ripped, and I'll have amazing grades, AND I can help out incoming freshmen find their classrooms because I'm on a giant campus.
Fuck that insecurity stuff I had earlier. Not having a girlfriend is going to be the best thing that's ever happened to me.
I posted this in the small thread in the lifestyles and hobbies section but it would probably do better here.
I've only had once lucid dream, and it was by pure luck that it happened.
I was in a small village in the woods, if any of you were with the facepunch wurm online invasion, it was a village like that, but more real. anyways I held my nose and took a breathe through my nose and that was a sign that I was dreaming. It was a pretty cool feeling dreaming like that, but nothing else really happened. I should've wrote about it sooner but I never got around to it. Better than nothing I suppose, but hey it's a step to becoming a real lucid dreamer, even if it's a small step.
Also I've been having problems with actually dreaming, for some reason it's very rare for me to get an actual dream of any kind . I just goto sleep and wake up with out any recollection of a dream. It's driving me crazy. How do I dream more often?

[QUOTE=tepholman;23738081]I can usually remember my dreams, but 99% of the time they are blurred fragments of memory that only seem to last a few seconds and make no sense. Sometimes I get lucid, but I can't think straight, making me forget I'm lucid after a while and I go back into the dream.[/QUOTE]
This^^^ fucking this^, this is what exactly happening to me as well. How do I fix this?
I'm 13 and i sleep 9-11 hours a day, wake up at 3pm and go sleep at 2-5am, is that normal?

No, most owls can't type.
I think I'm getting closer to finally getting fully lucid. For the past three nights I realized I was in a dream. I read that rubbing your hands together helps you stay in the dream, and that worked well. For the last one I just flew around for a bit. In the OP it says that flying immediately doesn't work, but for me it is as easy as just going up and flying. Unfortunately flying is the only thing I can control in my lucid dreams and I'm having trouble trying to do anything else, and then I eventually space out and I forget I'm in a dream. Well at least I get every night to practice.

Well, I'm 16 and I go to bed around 4am and wake up somewhere between 11 and 1. So yeah. Welcome to being a teenager. Have fun.
I had a dream about if marijuana was made entirely legal.
Everything after that took place in a large purple bus and involved cat people.

Actually most of my dreams since August have been about drugs.

Only way I woke up was passing out or sleeping.

Masturbating before bed is probably bad.
Zen, dude...now I remember every possible dream I'm having, this is super awesome.
:3 Last night I got a girlfriend in the dream, but she said she can come only at night. Oh well. I hope I get to see her tonight too.
I posted on Facebook right after a dream I had. I remembered it pretty well. Copypaste of it incoming.
"All I remember was that humanity was divided into 2 factions, represented by green and red, and they'd normally get along, but there were some that were fighting (don't remember why) and the reds were weaker, so they'd always be the ones to lose, but they were always the ones that would be blamed for the fighting, and eventually, the higher-up force decided enough was enough and sent everyone to a battlefield similar to 2fort from Team Fortress to settle the fight once and for all, and then I woke up.
And during the battles, all I remember is that everyone who took part in harming or killing someone had the opposing faction color around their mouth and on their fingers, sort of like blood, and it make them look kind of evil and stuff."
I found it weird and cool, because it was all cinematic and stuff.

Not in the slightest.
This sounds really interesting, i might try it...
I've been lucid dreaming for quite a while now, and lately I have been trying to fly. The closest I can get is sort of a GMod style noclip with gravity still pulling me down sort of sporadically. Anyone have some tips to get this perfected? I'm more of a MILD person, and this is when I am attempting to fly.
I have a question:
Is lucid dreaming just dreams, or can it also be nightmares? I don't particularly want to be 'conscious' when i have my nightmares chasing after me...

If weed being legalized is something you've been thinking about quite alot then thats probably why its come out in your dreams.
Bump.
Anyone had those dreams where you wake up feeling really depressed for the rest of the day, yet nothing in the dream makes you sad or depressed?
I had one last night, All I can remeber was that some girl went arse over tits and smashed her head up, And I had to get help, It made no sense

Oh but you do. If you become lucid during a nightmare, you can change the dream however you want. Turn the tables, have it be [b]you[/b] who is the one chasing your nightmares.
Say the "bad guy" in your nightmares is a dragon. So turn him into a fly and chase the fucker around with a flyswatter.
I am aware that im dreaming alot, but it never occured to me to take control, im gonna try WILD tonight.
Something bad is happening to me, I can't sleep very well anymore.
It's like I'm wanting so much to lucid dream I keep my conscious up when I try to fall asleep, and it keeps me awake and I'll do that until it makes me not so tired. I think it's an accidental habit I created. I just want to sleep :saddowns:
The movie Inception is based off my realistic dreams :tinfoil:
[quote]WILD
WILD stands for 'Wake Initiated Lucid Dream' because you lapse into a dream directly from consciousness. In other words, you stay awake while your body goes to sleep, and you transition directly to dream control.
The trick is to recognize the hypnagogic state and stay conscious while it develops in dream images. You will then be able to literally step into your own dream world.
The hypnagogic state occurs on the border between waking and sleeping. It can be anything from colored dots to flashes of color or complete images. As you keep paying attention to it they will develop into more detailed images and if you stay aware you will find yourself inside your dream.

Oh man I did this once. It was one of the most amazing things I ever did. I was dreaming but I was awake..... I controlled it all.
[editline]10:55PM[/editline]
Anyone notice if they listen to a long looping playlist while they sleep, whatever song you fall asleep on you sort of resume from the point in which you feel asleep on?
I just want to know one thing. If I use either method, WILD or MILD. Will I remember it when I wake up or will I wake up like I normally would and just start doing stuff?

If you're talking about dream recall, then no, neither method, in my experience, has much effect on dream recall. Ld's do tend to be more memorable, but really, if you want to get into lucid dreaming you should start a dream journal. Once you've done that, your dream recall will increase over time.

So how long will it take till I can basically remember the whole thing?
It was weird.
I was napping on the couch one day, and then it felt like someone punched me in the chest.
Hypenic jerk?
[QUOTE=Mikesword221;23931186]So how long will it take till I can basically remember the whole thing?[/QUOTE]
I'm not sure, but I don't think even I can remember ALL the dreams I have in a night, though the WBTB alarm probably doesn't help. I can't even remember how long it took to build up the recall I have now but I would say expect anywhere from a few days to a few weeks. It can be surprising how quickly/easily dream recall comes once you start taking an interest and writing them down in a journal, but don't be discouraged if it comes slower.
