I used to have them alot and im not kidding when i did and smoething bad was happening i would shout out in my dream dont worry its only my dream its not real, it coudl be freakign sh!t. But i liked it. Especially when i had good ones and could control them i could do anything, i dont remember having any recently though but wished i did

lol at tonyted and the reason i put this in science and not b and s was to avoid the wet kinda version replies lol

I know exactly what you mean Eddie, I have been lucid dreaming since I was a kid and I get the dreams sometimes where I think I am awake but Im not, its pretty scary even thought I find normal lucid dreams brilliant. If you dont wake up when you realised you were dreaming you should be able to continue with the dream and take control of it :)

aww chazza its crap that it scared you, I have great fun dreaming and love being aware that its happening and being able to control stuff in my dreams.

I have heard of other people shouting out similar in their dreams confused. Hopefully you will get more dreams where you are lucid (though not the scary kind)

For anyone interested heres a link with loads of info about lucid dreaming and help on how to do it :)

I get them all the time. I have to make absolutely sure before doing anything silly though because the dream always seems so real. In a dream I have a little trick that I can do to verify that I am in fact dreaming. Not every dream is lucid though. The ones that are start to be lucid when, in the dream, I somehow deduce that what's happennig isn't real, I still do the test though just to be sure I'm not about to make an ass of myself in real life! Great fun, I find the main problem is stopping myself waking up!

[aka pixi]

nice one loosehead, i think the trick you do to verify you are dreaming is called a reality check or something. I dont know much about it all even though it happens to me all the time. I always thought it was something everyone did most of the time until I mentioned it to folks as i was growing up and most of them looked at me daft.

What I hate is those circular dreams that seem like they will never end.

[jno]

yes, once in a while. Or maybe I just dream that I'm dreaming; I suppose it's hard to tell the difference. Likewise I once dreamed that I was able to control my dream... or perhaps I was controlling my dream... but only the once, and I can't remember what it was about now. It'd be nice to be able to do it on cue.

Ive only had the one, dreamt I was in a graveyard and being shot at !
It was really scray at the time though and I managed to wake myself up out of it just by knowing that it was only a dream.
The way I knew it was a dream is because when Im dreaming, if things start coming towards me at speed I get this strange feeling in my stomach which then makes its way up to my head, the feeling is so weird.

lol at mibn2cweus


from what Ive read jno if you can't do it naturally you have to practice but that would kinda take all the fun out of it I would imagine.

aww thats scary babybombo :( If it ever happens again (which I hope it doesnt) try to control the dream and make a massive weapon appear and shoot back :D
