<< "lucid" isn't your code word for "wet", is it? >>



Its OK, everyoone has them on occasion. Just wash your sheets before your Mom sees them.

I've had a few of these over the years and about 4 within the last month or so. I hope they're happening more frequently.
The first few times it happens, it's really easy to wake up. Now I've learned to stay asleep. Only, whenever I realize I'm having one I just go around trying to do chicks.
Also, as soon as I start having a lucid dream, all of the other people in my dream lose thier personalities and just become sort of still drones, so it's not all that much fun just yet. I'm working on it.
There are books you can get and I'm sure there are sites you can look at that will give you tips to get you started on it.

I used to have them alot when I was between 18 and 22, have not had one in years....I used to look foward to sleeping, there NOTHING like dreaming and knowing your dreaming and to have controle over the dream...

i used to have them alot about a year or so ago. lately tho i have been waking up and noticing things that wernt right in the dream that should have triggered me into knowing it was a dream. so im hoping that ill start having them again.

iv had some weird ones where i wake up and then wake up again and s$*t like that.

I used to have them every now and then. Now I have these super realistic dreams. It is horrible! Sometimes I have trouble figuring out if I did something in a dream or in reality! :Q I also have plenty of bad dreams. The only good part is I am happy when I wake up. :)

I used to have dreams that I would wake up, use the potty, shower, get dressed, get in the car, and head to school. About the time I pulled into the driveway at school in my dream, Id wake up and have to do it all over :|

But Ive also had dreams where Ill know its a dream, but I still wont know its a dream. Like, me in the dream will know its a dream, but me in the real world wont know its a dream. Its hard to explain, but it happens.

Yeah, i use to be able to get them regularly if i wanted... had a book on lucid dreaming with techniques on how to do it, worked great too. I spent 3 days in bed one time just lucid dreaming. I don't get them often anymore though, maybe once a month or so. I'm just too lazy to even do stuff in my dreams :p

I started a Dream Club in high school and we talked about / researched this a lot.

I sleep too heavily and fitfully to really have decent dreams, plus my fscking cat keeps stepping on my head when I'm asleep and waking me up.

Yeah, all you have to do is take mid day naps or wake up in the morning for one hour, then go back to sleep, you will have them. I don't like the ones where I wake up but I still have sleep paralysis - freaks me out!
