if you're up for a semi-long read it's about my first lucid dream experience http://www.hipforums.com/forums/showthread.php?t=204473
Wait, so you basically controlled your thoughts and words while you were DREAMING!? I think you just dreamed those thoughts, not really you controlling what you were saying, but that was one fucked up dream. Dreams are the coolest shit ever now that i think of it. They bring you in a whole differant friggin dimension.
this sounds VERY interesting, i remember having an experience like that along long time ago and i was like "hey im in a dream!" and was jumping over buildings and everything until it hit me; "how the hell am i going to get out of here?" so i started banging my head against the trashcan..nothing...then i started banging my head on a brick wall, then i finally woke up...lol it was very interesting. anyway i was wondering if you had a more informal site about what and how to do this?
Congrats!!! Lucid dreaming is sooooo hard to get into. I haven't had one in months Sounds like you had a good experience!
every time i try to lucid dream the second i become aware i'm dreaming i panic and wake up. do you have any experience with this? if so how did you get past it?
"in dreams reflections from a mirror often appear to be blurred, distorted or incorrect." That shit tripped me out into wondering why this is? Is the dream world actually our real world and when we are awake we're actually sleeping in that? In the dream world maybe we look completely different to now, maybe we are like aliens or something thats why its not able to be seen. Fuck
well, this was my first actual "breakthrough" i suppose for lack of a better term it was the first time i actually became lucid, but basically what you're saying is kind of what happened to me...so i don't know. defeat the innate fear i suppose... splosh - yes, this fact is pretty trippy. what's even more trippy is something that happened to me revolving around this fact. to help induce a lucid dream it is helpful to go throughout the day "testing" whether or not you're actually asleep and dreaming by going "am i dreaming? is this real?" stuff like that the point being that you do this enough and eventually when you're dreaming you'll catch on and be able to go "am i dreaming?" and you actually will be i have a mirror on my dresser, and i was standing in front of it looking at it on the side of my bed closest to the mirror, everything looked fine, i walked around to the other side of my bed then looked at the mirror and my reflection was distorted. i didn't pick up on anything, i just was curious as to why, so i walked back to the other side, it was fine. so i walked around one more time and it was still distorted. i immediately thought "oh my god...i must be dreaming" and even though i wasn't, even though i KNEW that i was awake, after that one moment i seriously had believed i was dreaming. to know that you're awake, and living in waking reality, but to experience something that causes you to genuinely believe you're unconscious...well, it was quite the phenomenal experience. needless to say, it tripped me out for about 30 minutes.
dude, how'd you do it? ive heard you can do it through self-hypnosis, which i've done a bit, but never actually tried lucid dreaming.
That fucking rocks, dude. I only had one lucid dream before (that I can remember anyway), and it only lasted for about twenty seconds before I woke up. I was just walking down the street when suddenly I realised that I was in a dream, so I took off and flew around the streets for a while, haha. It was amazing. Then I realised I could probably teleport but that didn't seem as fun as flying and besides, I woke up before I could try. I haven't had one in years, but I haven't really been trying. ... Am I dreaming?
maybe I'm weird, but I lucid dream almost every night. Except when I have smoked weed within a few hours, then I never remember my dreams.
