I can become aware that I'm dreaming. But as soon as I recognize it I wake up. :mad:Quote:

It sounds completely awesome, though. I already have some dreams planned out. :D
Interesting...
I had a flashback dream thing last night...from a very cruddy event in my life.
I could pause the whole thing and think about what to do next.
And then it came to me...I missed a critical decision that I could, and would, have made, and I screwed up.
Blah...

My wife maintains she can restart her dreams at the right point. If she wakes up in the middle of a dream like if the dog barked or whatever, she goes back to sleep and carries on in the dream where she 'paused'.
That's really cool IMO.
And why is it that in a nightmare, I can't run? I don't have too many bad dreams, but in most of them I get rooted to the spot and can't get away from the baddies or whoever. Nor can I scream.
That's NOT cool at all.
And why is it only the good dreams that get interrupted? Nightmares always seem to run to their conclusion, even if a car alarm goes off right outside the window. In the middle of a good dream, though, it only takes a small frog ribbiting three streets away to wake me up from it.
Lucid dreaming sounds pretty good, though. Look out Claudia - here I come! :D ;)
Jim Brown,
check the link above, that site is really great, they have all the answers you're looking for (why can't you run/scream/etc.)
they also have a tutorial how to experience lucid dreams, it takes a lots of practice... but i think it's worth it!
:D
Katie, did you like what you saw on that web site?
I did like what I read. I'm very interested in this.
My husband has always thought that I need something like this. I am, in my waking life, very upbeat, happy and sexually satisfied yet I have only two types of dreams. X-rated dreams that involve things I would never want to do in real life or unspeakably horrid nightmares. Very awful stuff. I often wake him up screaming. I remember everything I dream too!
Hmm... *beings dreaming* :DQuote:

If you want to remeber dreams dont rub your hair in the morning when you wake up!
Serious try it. If you dont rub your hair as you wake up your more likely to remember your dreams!
Filburt:"That Sucks!"
Probably in the x rated ones yes!
Not really, last night I had a dream, and I remember one thing from it, but nothing else. I'm fairly sure it was a good dream, but I just can't remember what it was about.Quote:

Agree. Often I know that I had been dreaming. I only remember the general feel of the dream though, which is bad because I know exactly that if I remembered the dream completly I could write a bestseller from it :)Quote:

I didn't read the link or anything, but I can *somewhat* control my dreams. I realize that I am dreaming, and can steer the dream in certain directions. It isn't total control by any means, it is more of being able to nudge them in the direction I want.
I can also get back into a dream if I was woken up. This dosen't happen too often, but when it does, it seems like I can do it all night (wake up, go to sleep, wake up, etc.. and still be in the same dream). It probably is only happening though towards the morning because the alarm clock usually stops it for good because I actually have to get up.
Even with all that, I for some reason, can BARELY remember my dreams. Thats the part that sucks for me. I am usually left with vague refernces of them.
I am a messed up person....lol.
I have Lucid Dreams I guess,
not long ago, 3 weeks or 4 weeks ago, I laid down bed and all of sudden I am paralysed, cannot move, and i hear this weird sound, "HAHAHAHAHAHA" then my eyes are getting disy, and i want to yell help, cannot, and my feet is stroking, and after 2 minutes, i yelled MOM, and everything was ok.
It was scary.
One dream I had. I was trying to kill some guy. I was stabbing him in the ribs. I was getting pissed because he wouldn't die after I had stabbed him like 100 times, he just kept trying to walk away from me. Eventually, I realized I was trying to kill him right in the middle of some party at a house, with about 70 people watching me do it...funny thing is, in my dream I became exasperated, and actually thought "Great, now I have to kill all of these people too!"
I've experienced lucid dreams, or a form of them, but not for a few years now. From what I can remember I knew I was dreaming and could control what I did in the "dream world"...though I didn't seem to be able to control my surroundings.
I could also force myself awake...though I remember one time I thought I forced myself awake and then I found out I was still in a dream....and then I repeated the cycle several times.
So I'm not sure how much control can be achieved, but knowing you are dreaming and having some amount of control is very possible. I happened to stumble upon it by accident...and haven't had the opportunity to experience them again for quite some time.
I dream about taco's.
On a serious note, controlling your dreams is supposedly step towards controliing out of body experiences. I tried this years ago. Never got anywhere with it though.
Most of my dreams are so cool I have no desire to control them, they're doing well enough on their own:) In the rare bad dreams, I generally can alter things to some extent such that they come out well.
Actually, now that I think about it, Memnoch, you were dressed weren't you?:D
