What happens if you only remember about one dream per week. (if even that) I remember so few dreams, that I can tell you every detail about almost any dream I have remembered. When I go to sleep it is black, and it usually stays black.

This sounds really cool, but kind of scary. Regardless, the person who was talking about dream environments and such, I've been wondering about that for a while too cause there's always this place in my dreams and I've just wondered if it meant something. Also like the reoccurring place there's a reoccurring person/could of people and like I know then when I'm in my dreams, but I know I don't know them in real life. What's up with that? If anyone can shed some light on either of those issues I'd greatly appreciate it.
This is a really interesting topic, and sounds fun, I'd like to try it but I'm usually so exhausted by the time I go to bed -- would that mess up chances of having a lucid dream?

I got a slight problem : I keep sleeping 2-3 in the morning and now I can't remember my dreams - I could, but I really have to think.

Oh well, I'll try tonight for a full blown LUCID DREAM.

to tell you the truth I don't do all that reality check stuff.... a large portion of it is all mental.... I believe I explained earlier that my only reality check it to fly low t the ground with my stomach facing the ground and if I get anywhere close to doing it then i'm dreaming... lol.

Im sorry, but I cant go through 25 pages of text on this without boring myself. But, how DO I get a lucid dream, or get better chances of one? Ive been trying, like this one person said tense up your muscles, another said to tell yourself your doing to dream and realise it. They never work for me. Is there anything I have to eat to make it more likely? I heard cheese and milk becuase they are harder to digest so the body uses more work.

Hmmm... a long time ago, i learned a different type of reality check that always worked for me.
If you look at a letter word in your dream, then turn around and look again, if it's different, you know you're dreaming. Almost every time i try this in a dream, it changes, so this has proven to work quite well for me.

Ok I finally got a hold of lucid dreaming and can control every dream I encounter now but heres a thing. The last set of dreams I had last night, half of them had me kinda stuck in bed and I had to fuse with the bed and dig my way out of the darkness to the outside. Also is it slightly possible to contact old friends or other people? And how can I get rid of the having to fuse with the bed?

It shouldn't matter about the bathroom thing but make sure that you don't use the restroom in your lucid dream ;)

Also about the fusion to the bead is sleep paralasis which soemtimes occurs when you prematurly awake from a relaxed dream on purpose calmly... if from now on when you want to awake you jolt yourself out the whole thing should never happen. However, if it happens by itself dont' worry abut it it is completely natural and happens to almost eveyrone at least a few times in their life.

Also note though sometimes these are false awakenings.... make srue that you do some reality checks after waking up from sleeping or a dream. ;)

I've always struggled to remember dreams. Although, with one's I can recall, I do realise that I'm able to actually change "scenarios" if I don't like where they're heading to; I've actually forcefully woken myself up in the middle of the night because of some dreams.

Last night I attempted a lucid dream, my first actual try. And I did get some result. I remember that everything started off black, like a mist I couldn't see through. I looked down and started waving my hands, as told in one of the points. Suddenly the colour purple covered my vision until that was all I could see. For some reason I seemed to be struck with adrenaline or something of the like while the purple was appearing. Shortly after this I woke up feeling excited and pumped up.

The experience only lasted a few seconds and I'm not quite sure what to think of it of that if I had gone through a lucid dream at all.

Alright for those of you who are able to wake up in your dreams and forcibly wake yourself up you are in the perfect and I mean perfect place to start a lucid dream. You are deep enough to have to force yourself to awaken but you are concious... its the greatest place to be. :)

Just remember that if you are in a nightmare to make it something silly and then go about your lucid dreamness... just remember that it is a dream and try not to do the natural impulse to awaken yourself..

OH yea to the person that thinks i'm a legend thanks and you should talk to the people that did the gamefaqs 2003 awards. (i wanted best topic) ;'(

I havn't read all of this topic,(just the fist 75 or so posts)
and im wondering bedides the subliminal thing, what do you reccomend me do to start having lucid dreams.
and also if somone was having a lucid dream about something that was pretty much impossible (eg. something requiring great strength) and the person acted out their dream is it possible that they could break normall boundaries?

Is it possible to think up a dream you'd like to have (when you're concious), and then somehow force yourself to have that dream? Cuz when I lucid dream, I just do stupid stuff- I know I'm dreaming, and I can sort of manipulate things, but I don't do anything because I'm too stupid (in the dream) to think of anything interesting to do. Although, incidentally, recently I've been having very pleasurable non-lucid dreams...

You got to set it in stone before you fall asleep what you want to do exactly usualyl that helps... most of the time lucid dreams are the highest form of predictable behaviors meaning that the dream is totally taken from what you were thinking around the time you fell asleep. This isn't to say that this is completely so but it is a good idea to have a general idea of what you want to do as it is more difficult to think when only a part of your mind is functioning.

I still don't have full control over my dreams... lol... that is impossible really... just because of the way a lucid dream occurs... the most controled dream I had though was when I was in a very very large and exotic valley and became lucid and then remembered an experiment I was going to do. I tryed for about 15-30 minutes dream time summoning mirrors effortlessly and having them fly towards me so I could try "shared dreaming" or "common-place shared dreaming" to be precise. but anyways it turned out that I couldn't get through the mirrors and when I did i would be "bounced back" (i learned when i forcefully woke up that he was already awake during my dream for the past 2 hours.) Anyways... that was pretty good flying and summoning objects control...... the best location switch lucid dream was when I watched an I dream of jeanie right before bed and tried to "blink" myself to new areas which worked very very very well... lol.

that's.. odd.

i was looking at the lucid dream subliminal thing and i suddenly remembered a bit of the dream i had last night. and i have a lot of trouble remembering dreams even a few seconds after i wake up.

maybe there's hope for me! i've wanted to lucid dream for a while now. it sounds interesting.

I went from having a lucid dream to going an imcompete OOBE (out of body experience) It happened yesterday :)

What it is it? well, its basically having dreams during REM stage, but in the morning like 6:30 in the morning. Basically you wake up, dunk your head in cold water and go to sleep back again. Then you should enter REM stage quick, like in 5 minutes.

I know that i am in the dream. But i cant really control myself. I can walk by will. BUt not control wherre i walk. Is there a way to snap out of a lucid dream? cause i hate the stupid ones.(school, life, etc.)

This is mildly interesting, although some of these posts seem so outlandish that I've just discounted several to people asking for attention...

But on the whole, it does sound interesting. Tangible. I've had a few dreams where I woke up to another dream, and a couple where I realized I was dreaming. They were pretty lame though. It usually seems to happen right before I wake up. It's like everything in the dream just kinda flashes by real fast (as in the progression of time) and then I'm awake and don't remember but the last second or so of the dream.

I don't dream much anymore, either. It sucks. Although the whole sleep-paralysis thing I get a lot. It scares me though because sometimes it'll happen to me when I'm just laying down. I can't move limbs. And this happens while I'm awake, so I panic in almost all cases (I have a bit of a phobia with not being able to move).

Any particular reason I experience this inability to move? It's just a brief thing, and only occasional, but I still hate it.
