Do you experience lucid dreams?

[LogicalLifts]

I do.

Feels so good mane.

[N0rds]

Take nyquil, melatonin, zinc, l-theanine, etc



I get them almost every night now when I need to take nyquil (which is almost a month now thanks to insane allergies)

[buwbs]

Set alarm for 5am wake up then go back to sleep

I have had them naturally since I was a kid. Took a long time for me to turn them from nightmares to an empowered fantasy srs.

[jmal2000]

I do now that I've quit weed. It's really fun to play in dream world.

[Bodhy]

Yeh.


But when you talk to someone in a lucid dream.....


...who are you talking to?

[Dave22reborn]

Only with Melatonin.

[BlackJack619]

How can we be sure we are not currently in ops dreams now?

[jmal2000]

Yeh.

The voices I have claim they are from DMT plane. That they are dream entities that persist outside of dreams. I think these voices came to power since the dawn of the alphabet and words. Thats when dream entities became smarter. These guys have been experimenting on me every night creating dreams for me. We are trying to make the perfect dream world thats permanent with the perfect rulesets of reality in place. The voices put a lot of celebrities in my dreams too. I guess its to celebrate me? Apparently I'm a big deal to the voices and they knew about me since I was a child.

[LogicalLifts]

Yeh.

In mine I don't have prediction or control over other characters as such. More an ability to actively control my own behavior.

So it can be a combat scene, an old memory, an alternate universe etc.

[Voidgaze]

Yeah, and it's mostly on accident.

I haven't learned to focus it, but now I linger for a few minutes at a time before departing. Interesting stuff.

What if I am dreaming of your dreams in which your dreams are OP's dreams?

[Chowboy]

Used to. Intentionally stopped.

You can train yourself to do it. No drugs necessary.

[jmal2000]

I get a lot of false awakenings in my lucid dreams. Where I think I wake up but I'm really in another dream.

[Ace Corona]

About once a year I have a dream that I’m going back to high school at my current age. (I’m 53 years old)

I dropped out in my junior year when I was 16, and by 19 I regretted it, and started having dreams that I went back to school and they accepted me. In reality, someone over 18 can’t attend high school, but in the dreams, I’m allowed to enroll as if it’s normal to do this.

[LogicalLifts]

Yeah, and it's mostly on accident.

It can be as interesting as you forge it to be. It can be exhausting if you enjoy it too much as it disturbs quality sleep.

[Adam16121]

I get them a lot. They used to be pretty terrifying, but at some point they became more unusual and unpredictable. Stuff like finding a room in the home that leads downstairs into an old cave with clear water, like a cenote. Randomly, there’s large, beautiful and ancient fish there, just swimming in a hidden, and forgotten place.

Kind of gives the vibes of a place untouched by the limitations of time, and always flourishing. I always choose to go down and see it in lucid dreams.

[ParsleyTea]

Not really. Most of the time I don't remember my dreams. Every so often though I'll have a vivid life like dream. i don't care for those.

[LogicalLifts]

Used to. Intentionally stopped.

Why would you want to stop?

[Ripper908]

Sometimes I realize I'm dreaming but than I wonder if I am dreaming of myself realizing I am dreaming

so I don't think they are lucid dreams

bros who have legit lucid dreams, how much control do you actually have of the dream? can you control the environment or are you just moving yourself around through pre constructed dreams?

[Polaris]

Nope, I'm afraid not.

The closest I've come are some rare occasions where I'm in a predicament (usually related to heights - like being high up on an unstable tower or some chit) and I get the vague sense that maybe I'm dreaming and think "Okay I'm going to wake up in 1...2...3..." and then do indeed wake up.

[GreatOldOne]

Yes, but not in a while. For a time I was trying every night and had some success...but it's a lot of energy when you need to rest.

The buzzing sensation and voices right before are wild...I'm talking about lucid dream where it seems you leave your body.

You can construct the dream as you go. Go somewhere new. However often your dream will collapse into a normal one

Das it mane

[Chowboy]

Realized it's just a mind game with no real value


Got an A on the term paper, though.

[DuracellBunny]

I don't sleep very much and have almost no recollection of dreaming. I wake up knowing that I had a dream 2 or 3 times a year.

It depends on the dream.

In one variant I am in a combat zone in which I have complete awareness as well as complete personal control. So I can act "with impunity", but do not have control over every element in the dream.

[LogicalLifts]

I get a lot of false awakenings in my lucid dreams. Where I think I wake up but I'm really in another dream.

Interesting. That might overlap with ones where I feel like I wake up, get some water, and go back to sleep and my dream continues.

Wild stuff.
