yesterday I had a lucid dream In which I woke up but I was in a different room in my house and was severely disappointed about that fact so I woke up for real 35 seconds later because I jumped out the window in the dream

all I wanted was to fly out my own room window

Heh.

I had a cool dream while taking a nap yesterday. I was a junior officer aboard a cruiser that got up to some weird (but interesting and cool) shit while tooling about a fictitous island chain.

ever had lucid ones?

Close, but not quite.

Too much freaky shit to want to change it. Usually I just go with the flow.

so you briefly realize you dream but then forget

I think it's more like an underlying sense of knowing that I'm dreaming.

I only started lucid dreaming AFTER I managed to get good at flying inside my dreams

But I've had dreams when I was younger that, when I woke up from them, I would very briefly be convinced they were real. Usually the ones you really *want* to be real, like winning the lottery.

Ah, yeah, that.

damn that's a tall order

I used to have dreams where flying was no issue whatsoever. But over the past decade or so, they've more often been hop-gliding dreams.

but I guess personal flight is too

Hell yeah.

I'd give anything to be able to fly.

I had exactly ONE Lucid Nightmare

Ugh, sounds bad.

most rare kind as far as I can tell

I have plenty of false awakening dreams too

I could count the number of nightmares I've ever had on, like, two or three fingers.

most of my false awakening dreams involve me going to school or work, mostly work, im 29

sometimes im trying to come home

The most recent was this year, but calling that a nightmare would be quite generous. It was more like an unsettlingly dark dream.

I'm 39.

that one lucid nightmare was just a regular nightmare until I obviously realized I was dreaming

so I tried my best to imagine some heavy weapons and start shooting back at the raptors chasing me through the commieblocks

ooo

Yeah, I've never been able to actively change my dreams, to my knowledge.

oh yeah

also dreams where you harness power or use weapons

most of them involve harnessing lightning

Usually the only time I can do that is during that special time of morning, when you're still half asleep and the dream is continuing in your semiconscious mind.

staring with intent at distant objects only for them to get struck by freaky lightning

the thunder from those still spook the fuck out of me

Jedi powers.

If I fight in a dream, it's usually something not unlike that.

I can dream at any hour soo long as the sleep is restful
