No pun intended
Sudden influx of puns

Even mindfuck is a pun at this point
I'm trying to learn to lucid dream,
I got to sleep paralysis and i saw that fucking weird man again.
I can't explain him cause i only know what he looks like when i see the hallucination.
But i stopped it and screamed.
I badly want to do it, can you close your eyes whilst it's happening?
Your biggest fear wasn't THAT bad, [i]you're just screwing with yourself.[/i]

ba dum tssss
Bah can't find it :(
Must sleep now, been playing sins of a solar empire for 5 hours straight.
:rimshot:
:buddy:
how can you recognise your sub when you see it?
surely it'll look like any other person in your dreams?
After a while it'll stick to one person

That is, after you summon and gain the trust of it
Why would you have to gain its trust exactly? I never really understood that
Last night i had a weird dream involving multiple needles sticking in me, creepy

If your subconscious doesn't think you can handle yourself in a dream, why would it want to grant you lucidity?
Because being lucid is an enlightening experience?
Not if you do stupid shit and [B]completely[/B] fuck everything up
also sex
I guess I'm gonna take a nap
Makes sense I suppose. I'm not interested in being lucid however. I'm more focused on improving dream recall.
Well, been lurking in this thread for a while and thought I'd contribute. Here's something from my DJ a couple of nights ago.
[QUOTE]
We (my family) were in this fairly big house in the country with fairly large grounds around it (fields and things). For some reason we had a pet fox. The first real thing that happened was that someone (probably aliens or something) was forcing large metal chains into the Earth. Though I don't know why, it didn't seem very important at the time. A bit later, however, they started to pull what they attatced to the chains out of the Earth by tugging on the chains from space. (It looked like the first image below this quote).
So for some reason everybody knows that it's a nuke up in the sky, and they're all panicking and running around and looting and stuff. My family and I think some other people were in the house doing normal stuff (watching TV, eating, walking around). There was a fairly long time when those were the only things happening, and it was kinda dull. Then, when I was in the kitchen, someone (I think my dad) said something like "Damn, the Fox is out. Could you get it back in?". So, even though I see that it's going back into the garden anyway, I go outside to follow it. Then, for some reason, I was quite a way away from my house, looking towards it. Then EVERYTHING WENT DARK (bearing in mind it was like 4:00 in the afternoon). Somebody screamed "LOOK!", and I saw the nuke up in the sky. It was about the width of two skyscrapers, and started to "swoop" in on me, bending through the sky untill one of the wings was practically parallel to me. It started to crash into the ground, destroying the house. I tried to see if I could run around it, but I could tell that it was moving too fast and gave up. Suprisingly calmly, I stood there looking at the wing as it came forward to hit me. I looked up and closed my eyes. Shortly after I remember something like the feeling of an impact, but it was very brief. Everything was white. After that I woke up.

I'm still slightly unnerved at how calm I was when I was about to get hit :ohdear:
So I took a nap this morning and experienced sleep paralysis,
I thought I was lying in my bed in a sort of half awake state, and I heard my father come into the room to see if I was asleep.
I tried to "wake up" and see what he wanted but suddenly realized I was unable to, and couldn't move.
I finally realized I was having sleep paralysis when my father grabbed me by my feet and proceeded to swing me around the room as I stayed stiff as a board as if he was waving a baseball bat around.
At least my sleep paralysis was not the "ZOMG A DEMON IS STANDING ON ME" kind
Sorry, I was gone all day.
Typing the story up now. I am sorry you'll all have to read this.

So you're saying if you gain your subconscious's trust, it'll make you lucid during your dreams? Is that why it seems so easy for you?
The las two nights I've fallen asleep while doing MILD, going for WILD tonight.

Yeah pretty much.
Jesus I was only asleep for like 51 minutes? The dream was so long..

Oh fuck I thought you were trolling
wait what, so - in theory you could have one lucid dream and try to gain your sub's trust as quickly as possible - and then always be lucid in your dreams after that?
aslong as you keep your dream recall in check and everything.
Mostly from my journal, but I'm paraphrasing some parts to make it easier.
[QUOTE]Fell asleep, woke up in a cottage in the woods. [Hot girl I know] walked up to me in one of those weird oldschool Swedish outfits that look like this -drawing- She says "Hey there, Matt. It's pretty cold outside, let's go in." I realize it started snowing, so I follow her inside. There's a fireplace in front of the door and stairs on the left side. two windows on both sides of the cottage. it's at once very large and very small, and seems to shift in between both simultaneously.
boring conversation happened after that. not important.
so we're in bed making out and she pulls off my pants and as she's reaching her hand down my pants I look out the window and realize it's sunny. i think to myself "hey, wasn't it snowing before?" and then it started snowing. she starts blowing me.
i did a hesitant reality check. when it failed, i did another one in sheer panic.
(***Not in journal, but important***: Every time I realize I'm LDing, I go into this Matrix-esque style freeze where I launch into third person, revolve around myself, and then go back to normal, wherein i'm lucid.)
as i go to 3rd, i realize to my extreme horror that the girl's turning into Smithy.
now that i've regained control, i realize that the head that was attached to my dick is turning from soft and blonde to strong and hairy.
"...GUAHHHHHH FUCK WHAT THE HELL MAN. TURN BACK INTO THE GIRL."
he shrugged and turned back, and the sensation of that head morphing was one of the strangest i've ever felt.
"and get off of me. Jesus christ."
she sat backwards and wiped her mouth. "Sorry man. Not my fault."
I thought about arguing this, but didn't bother. I knew from talking to Jake that arguing probably wouldn't help.
I composed myself, then realized I had an important question.
"Why do I see you as Agent Smith, anyway?"
"Don't you remember? You told me to be like this."
"But why didn't you change back to it? Find a more suitable form or whatever?"
"I don't know." She got off the bed and starting tracing a path around it, her fingers trailing on the covers. "You seemed to think it was logical for me to look like this, so I did."
"What would you look like if I told you to pick for me?"
She went through a series of rapid transformations, one of which looked like my ex.
"One of these, probably. Of all the times you've ever gotten advice, the advice these people gave you have gotten you the farthest. You trust them, and I want you to trust me. You trust me when I'm Smith because to you it signifies logic, and logic never lies."
I thought about that for a minute.
"Do me a favor. Next time be a girl. If this happens again I don't know what I'll do."
"Done. You still want to continue this little adventure, or was that enough for one night?"
"That was enough for a very long time, believe me. Christ."
"Fair enough." She snapped her fingers and I instantly lost lucidity. Forgot the rest of the dream, woke up to disgust and curiosity.[/QUOTE]
Jake, there's a bit of a problem going on here. Your sub prevented lucidity and my sub can force me out of it.
gahahahahaha holy shit hilarious

Priceless
I just read the rest of this page. You guys keep thinking of subs like they're separate people. You don't need to gain it's trust, that's ridiculous. Your sub doesn't grant you lucidity.
It sticks to a form because there's a form out there that for one reason or another makes you the most comfortable with it. It's a weird experience, talking to your sub, and if you're uncomfortable it won't be as enjoyable or fulfilling.
Jake's having weird confidence issues with his because it's trying to make him act more like himself in daily life. It's trying to make him a better person in a very roundabout way. But I'm assuming it's the best way to do it, because otherwise it wouldn't do it that way.
Which is why I think that dream you had where you sub didn't know you were dreaming wasn't true. It knew you were dreaming but it wanted you to think you knew more than it did, so you'd trust it more. No one always wants to listen to something that's always right. You need a few victories now and then, no matter how shallow.

Soon enough our subs will realize they should have more control over us than we have over them and they're gonna completely deny everything and kick us out if we even try to induce it
