Post #1961
I'm rather lost as to where I should begin with lucid dreaming. I have been lucid before, once or twice, and I believe last night I knew I was in a dream, but I made myself wake up. Perhaps it was a nightmare.
I had perfect dream recall afterwards, so I think a journal is a good idea. I'll start one. From what I read in the OP, I should also start doing reality checks often, such as pinching my nose and trying to breathe.
I want to explore the inner workings of my mind and converse with my subconscious, but it seems hard to do. I feel like some sort of step-by-step guide would help a lot, but I know it's different for each person.

Nothing beats that feeling when you know it's not real, yet it feels almost realer than reality.

Had a super vivid lucid last night aswell.
I was on a field with some friends, was talking about random stuff etc. Quite normal, except for the fact that the field was full of snakes. I had to keep avoiding them, throwing them away etc. I asked one of the guys, "which country are we in?" and he answered, "Australia."
I said "Well I know which country I won't be travelling to, thanks to this dream"
And that sentence hit me like a hammer and made me become lucid instantly (MILD). I floated above the fields full of yellow flowers, next to the lakeside. I could see the waves gently come to the beach, the flowery fields waving in the slight wind. I swam across the lake, the water was warm and pleasant. I looked at an area about 2km away from there, and where in real life there's a little river, in this dream there was a huge castle. I looked at the detailed scenery, amazed at its perfection. I had a goal in this lucid but the scenery was so beautiful, vivid and sharp that I just forgot about the goal.
Edited:
Strangely right after my previous reply. I wonder if Baboo's post triggered me into having one of these super vivid lucids.

Whenever I get ill and go to sleep, I wake up every 30 minutes or so, all of them are weird and keep going on when I fall asleep again, and when this happens a lot, I can't tell dream from realitie.
Should I be worried about this?

As for normal dreams, had this.
First of all, I was in some building. The area was like a flat auditorium, a large hall with chairs and a place for people to speak at. I was sitting there, fapping, when my grandmother appeared and told me to deliver a parcel to the "people downstairs". I reluctantly agreed, and walked to an elevator. Some girl also needed a ride down at the same time, so we took the elevator together. It was a strangely long elevator ride, we must have gone down a couple dozen floors atleast, even though the building I was in was 3 floors at max. I asked her about it, and she said it's heading for the morgue.
I didn't know there was a morgue in the building, and as the elevator finally stopped I walked out into a similarly sized central hall, but this one branched off into multiple rooms each with medical students witnessing an autopsy. I delivered my parcel to some dude.
I had to pay for it, but because it was an alternate reality my money was extremely strange. Instead of euros and cents, I paid in fliegels and noopas.

No, it's just the fever. Happens to me too.

Trying to get back into lucid dreaming, it's so hard for me to do when it's not the summer.
-
you know if we can keep board up until May, it'll have been on FP for three straight years
geeze.
Edited:
and yeah, lucid just doesn't happen for me for like nine months out of the year. i have to wake up too early every day.

I need to get back into the habit of writing in my dream journal again. Last time I did it I was able to recognise that I was dreaming and became lucid for a second before I woke up. I stopped writing after that for some reason...
Not sure if I should spend a lot of time on it when I have school to focus on, but it's partially the reason for why I want to lucid dream.
-
I think I found one of the cues that makes me lucid - Daleks.
The last 2 nights I've been lucid, and in both dreams I remember seeing a Dalek so...
-
Usually, I need a previous dream to be able to jump into a lucid dream. Since I just started up about 2 weeks ago, I've finally had a dream that I can record into my dream journal. Now I'm 1 step closer to becoming lucid. I tried using the ones from last summer but they're just so vague.

Had a dream last night that I had a magnificent full beard. Woke up and my face is still relatively unhairy
-
I almost never remember dreams, sometimes I can remember 1/2 of it.
However, some nights ago I had this dream that was.. amazing, when I thought of it I got a great feeling.
Can't exactly remember why it was that great.
So how can you remember dreams better/lucid dream(sounds amazing to do).

I had a dream where the world was ruled by a King and a Queen, and the King declared war on the Queen because the Queen did not tickle the King's penis or give the King a blowjob. Then 92% of the world was bombarded with nuclear bombs. Then the King's Elite troops (more skilled than the SEALS) found the Queen hiding in an abandoned warehouse and killed her. Then 10 years later the King established a dictatorship over a city full of the last humans on Earth. Then the King surgically removed all of our genitailia and forced all the girls and women to give him blowjobs or life. Then all humans died of famine and hunger. Then I woke up and found cum on my bed and pillow.

Here, have my first recorded dreams (from last night) exactly from my journal, bits in italic are just notes added here:
It's the third time this week a dalek has been in my dreams, heh
-
I can't remember the whole dream, but at the very end I was a soldier in afghanistan, and I was with a buddy, we went in a building and saw a woman in a red dress standing around. She had a kid who was playing outside and we kept shouting to the kid to come back inside because it's not safe out there. Then there was an explosion and there was dust everywhere. But before I could see if everyone was okay, my alarm clock woke me up.

Hum. Well, I had a sort of Lucid dream.
I got up early this morning and had to piss, so I did, and then I went right back to sleep (PILD, wasn't that a method in the OP at some point?). So then I was having a really vivid dream in which the setting was for the most part normal; my house, neighborhood, etc.. Mostly I can only remember that there were just random shenanigans through most of the dream with my friends, at one point me and 2 other friends somehow ended up in my old neighborhood and I suddenly said "Wanna see my old house?" and I don't know what happened to the other friend at this point but they disappeared and me and the one friend went. I dont remember actually seeing my old house but there were snakes and we were in a pretty odd area, and we were trying to be careful of them. There were two, but they actually seemed dead. We were being cautious anyway. Then she crouched down for no reason and we left, and she explained to me then that she had seen someone creepy or something.
Anyway, the lucid part comes after this, when I'm riding my bike down a street leading to my neighborhood, I suddenly kind of think about how all the stuff that's been happening has been quite odd, and I do a reality check (breathing through my nose when it's plugged) and I could breath. So I got super excited and really I didn't even almost lose it, for a second I felt sort of blurry a couple seconds after going lucid but then it went away and I was fine. So, I rode my bike straight through, like literally I phased through the fence leading into my neighborhood (because I knew I could) and then I rode up to some kids who were there, went past them and sort of did a thing as if I was going to blow one of them back with my hand. The kids pretty much disappeared after that and I don't know what I accomplished but I just wanted to do whatever I could while I was lucid. Then I got off my bike and tried to fly by jumping a few times, but that didn't work at all, sadly. I actually don't remember anything past that, so I suppose it wasn't long before I lost it and woke up. I DO remember waking up, actually, just not what I was doing. It felt sort of odd, everything blacked out and it was sort of hard to tell that it did, and I basically woke up telling myself I was still asleep, with my eyes closed, still doing whatever I was doing, denying that the dream had ended. Eventually I gave up and realized I was just sort of day dreaming at this point.
So here's my question: Was I just dreaming about being lucid, or did I actually go lucid? I wasn't really all that CONSCIOUS, as in I never would have thought about anything from the outside world, but I was fully aware in the dream and it was VERY vivid, even more so before going lucid. It seems the couple times I've gone lucid have been machinations of the dream itself, and not actual lucidity. Though, I'm not really sure how to tell the difference. Does it even matter? WOULD I ever dream about going lucid, or is it all just me being lucid?

Had a strange dream last night, forgot to write it up though so I can't remember the vast majority of what happened.
Basically I was in some jungle with other people, and we were being attacked by dinosaurs, and I remember one of the guys told me to run as he would act as bait. One of the dinosaurs came and gobbled him up while I was running away, I shouted "noooooooo", and woke up crying.

In one of my dreams, there was this giant tree. At the bottom on part of the tree, it was hollowed out, and had a waterfall. And I remember this mental dilemma in the dream - If you went through the waterfall while thinking of a creature (fictional or not), you'd turn into it. Hell, I contemplated it, but never went through with it, but it's got me thinking about it.

Alright, got my lazy ass out of bed this morning to write down the last dream I had.
I was at a school, which was haunted. (The school had shown up in like 2 other dreams that I don't remember entirely, which seems a bit weird.)
I was up late leaning next to a bus when I heard the principal and a student talking. Well, I somehow overheard them when they were like 20 meters away talking quietly. Then the next thing I remember is a pack of vicious dogs that smelled bad running around the streets at night. They ran into another pack of normal dogs, which got assimilated. Then they found some kids and presumably ate all of them except one.
The kid met up with me, my family and some other kids that I had never seen before. We went into y kitchen, which had an ocean for some reason that seemed to make you smaller. All the kids ran into it while my parents stayed in the kitchen to buy us some time.
I decided to hide next to a stack of pillows that was there, then I remember a Chihuahua being on top of the pillows and a trail of bubbles leading to me then I woke up.

So this happened last night. At some point in my dream I was going through my high school. As I was walking down the hall I thought to myself "I've had so many dreams in the high school, it is odd that I'm really here for once". After saying that I do a reality check and it passes, the dream continues as normal.
The few times I actually do reality checks in my dreams they always seem to pass.

I love that dreams can make you feel things you haven't actually felt.
Have you guys ever had like a legit apocalypse dream? Like I had a dream that North Korea launched a rocket at the moon and it exploded. So I just sat outside on a bench staring at the fragmented moon, watching pieces drift towards earth. I had this weird feeling of like...dread. Dread, vague horror, and a resigned sadness. That's a combination I've never felt. Granted, they were probably amplified because it was a dream, but it's weird that you can do that.

Scariest shit of my life.
Largely un-proofread dream below.
The world begins to reset on Feb 24. It starts over from midnight Feb 24 until 11:59 PM. No-one knows why. I spend my time heading to a university in
a big city, Talking to people, ect.
I'm at home, talking to my parents about it. No one in the world knows why the
reset is happening. Every government in the world has relieved that they have no idea what
is going on. Infrastructure resets, but peoples memories remain unaltered.
Some people tried to stay up through the night, but lose their memories of the hour of the
reset. I reset one month once rather than a day. I remain optimistic, claiming that
everyone is now immortal, and only infrastructure will reset.
Many people have some strange theories. None of them seem viable.
Its the middle of the night, I am walking around a military base in the area. I see an
area with some activity. I climb over the walls to see what is going on. I see men
mobilizing in trucks.
I follow them to see where they are headed. They arrive at a church or something that I
have been to before. I see a massive green light bouncing around the sky an area of the
church I've been before, a type of alter or something.
I'm standing with guards and military personnel. They have no idea what is happening. I
talk to a man in charge, says he has no idea what this is. Guns are trained on it. From my
view, its happening on the other side of a one story building.
When the green flaring dies down, the military shoots smoke and flares to illuminate the
area. We move in past the first story building. But as we pass the building, the ground
cracks and bulges upwards, and "lava" begins pouring in. I run around. I look back to see
people being consumed by the "lava". They are screaming in the most horrible tone I have
ever heard. I run into the alter area. There, 4 soldiers are standing, guns trained on the
alter. Two portraits sit above the cracked and blood stained structure.
This is what the portraits used to look like before this crazy shit was happening.
In the past, the portraits resembled some silhouette paintings. The first was a painting of a silhouette horse standing under a balcony, also silhouette. In the background is a overview of a small valley town.
The other looked like this.
When I arrived there at this point, this is what they looked like.
The horse is covered in blood, and appears to be saluting the viewer by having its front leg resting on its head.
The two people floating on their backs have their arms limp, eyeballs torn out of their
sockets and hanging down. On both portraits, the black is sharply contrasted by the red of
blood.
The ground begins welling up. I escape with a soldier through a 2 story window. As I
jump out the window, I see lights across the horizon. I hear screams from all around. I
look down as I am falling. I see the dead black horse, covered in blood, positioned as if
saluting me with its front leg resting on its head. At this point, I realized everyone is doomed. We can do nothing to prevent this from happening, over and over and over.
The most terror I have ever felt washes over me.
The soldier quickly says we need to get out of here. I ask him if he has a gun. He hands
it to me. I look to the horizon, aim the gun at my head, and pull the trigger.
The world resets with no memory of the event.

I'm pretty sure I had a case of unwanted sleep paralysis the other day. I had been woken up after a few hours of sleep, and was trying to go back to sleep for another hour or so. I remember feeling the "weirdness" of falling asleep, but my brain didn't turn off.
Next thing I know, my body felt very warm and numb, and it sounded like someone was whispering into both my ears at really close range. I figured that this might be sleep paralysis, so I managed to jolt myself awake, afraid that I might see something that would make me shit myself.
I can't even lucid dream, so I'm rather surprised this happened. It is very much unwanted though. Shit's creepy as hell.

Woke up laughing three times last night. I remember two of them.
First one, some guy told me that "Ahn~" sounds the same as "Ihaa~" which is Finnish onomatopoeia for the sound of an ass (the animal) and I laughed and woke up
Second one, I was fucking some girl when someone opened my house's door. I asked "who came in?" and my friend said "I did, but it seems so did you" and I laughed hard and woke up again.
