Lucid Dreams
 

Ever had them?
I seem to have a strange habit of getting them, must be around 2 or three times a month

edit: should of made the poll public, woops

Only a couple of times and I knew i was dreaming but I couldn't control what happened in the dream, plus they were nightmares

Regularly. Don't even do anything specific to get them. Maybe 3 times a week tbh. Amazing when you bump into Beyonce and you know it's a dream where whatever you say she's yours..:)

yeah that's mainly what i get up to :joker:

what in god's name is a lucid dream

a dream where you know its just a dream and can take full advantage of it

oh I've had dreams where I've known it was a dream but its still out of my control

yeah i have those dreams

i can always take control of mine, last night i dreamt that i time travelled back to 2008 for some reason and then i figured out hey time travel doesnt exist so then i just thought of mila kunis and she came up to me and gave me a handjob outside tescos...felt all physic and ****

Same here, well I was ablle to control myself but not other things that happened in the dream

I haven't had lucid dreams, but I've had sleep paralysis which is a part of lucid dreaming I think.

I love when I have these, probably twice a week :love:

Ive had that before when I was having a bad dream, was **** scary and when I finally woke up I couldnt get back to sleep for ages.

Sleep paralysis is scary as hell, when I get it I always think theres someone standing over me and I can't move to turn round and see who/what it is, I have actually woke my partner up crying because of it a couple of times, and yeah I get lucid dreams but not a lot.

What is it? Like a wet dream?

oh my god the exact same thing used to happen to me whenever I had a high temperature when I was young :/ it involved counting backwards too :s

Not sure what that's been but I think sleep paralysis can happen when your sick, I'm not positive though.

Yes. I have kinda 'trained' myself to do it quite often.

Whenever I dream I am in a certain place, I realise I am asleep and can control everything from then on :D

I think they normally happen when youre been woken up when youre 'dreaming' but you go straight back to sleep and return to your 'dream' but its now a 'lucid dream' where you can control what happens from then on.

I just had a nap and had one :joker:

I don't think I have but I have sleep paralysis at least once or twice a month, it's awful. I don't get the visions of people in the room though, I just feel as though I can't move anything and can't breath, it gets more difficult as it goes on, feels as though I'm being suffocated almost. When I first got it it took me ages to get back to sleep especially because I literally found it so hard to break out of, but because I have it so often now it's easier...you just have to put your mind to moving your finger or foot around and you'll snap out of it. It's awful because you know you're in a state of sleep paralysis. It's easier said than done though :(

This is exactly what happens to me. The doctor said its anxiety related.... When it first happened to me, I thought I was on my way out....I couldn't speak or move but now I know what they are it's much easier to deal with. I have to get out of bed though or I fall back into it...
