Hi anons, who tries to experience lucid dreams? My latest experience:

never lucid dreamed, how to?

I have good odds if I'm napping. Usually can't do it in a deep sleep.

Last one I had I fell asleep in the parking lot of an apartment complex. Realized I was dreaming and could do whatever so I started going door to door looking for sexy womens to bang. But every time I opened a door there was a demon or something so I kept blowing up the apartments and moving on. I guess I can't control them all that well yet.

You just have to catch yourself in the early stages of a dream and tell yourself "this is a dream, I'm in my bed" or wherever you are, then have enough control not to wake yourself up out of fear or whatever. You become self aware in the dream, then it just becomes like thoughts you have while conscious. You can control them, only they're more vivid because there's no waking distractions.

I don't know actually, but sometimes I'm able to be aware of the fact that I'm dreaming. I know that there are techniques, some of them are listed on Wikipedia, there's a page about lucid dreams. I never tried those actually. Only technique I used is to wake up in the early morning, stay awake for about 30 minutes and then go to sleep again. You'll be more aware of your dream, or at least it works for me.

cant remember the last time i even dreamed, maybe bc of weed?

The strange fact about me (because it seems to be the opposite for other people, like you, reading your post), is that if I'm completely aware of the fact that I'm dreaming, I suddenly awake. I even need to betray my mind when I lucid dream, by continuously trying to convince me to not overthink about that I'm dreaming, in order to continue it (sorry if I'm not clear with words). Pretty frustrating

yes, weed affects the REM phase of sleeping, the one where the dreams are more "tangible", making them impossible to remember. I experienced the same when I used to smoke heavily.

I don't know about you but I'm drinking smoking and taking 35g of melatonin and I still have vivid dreams. Just monday I interacted with a goddess /tulpa I created years ago that managed to remain conscious even though I don't participate in her. Last night had interesting dreams. I'm naturally a lucid dreamer. My longest lucid dream lasted 3 hours and it was surreal, sexual,destructive,amazing and I don't actively persuade lucid dreaming

>one morning a week back
>partially wake up because of some noise
>have awareness and am conscious of my surroundings, but can't move and everything's blurry
>so is this that lucid dreaming thing or what?
>heard you can have more realistic dreams in this state
>think, wouldn't it be fucked up if some horror shit started happening?
>in the next moment, I'm strangled from behind by this fucking raging alien eldritch abomination
>fuck shit can't breathe
>scared shitless
>survival instincts kick in
>transform into some kind of a beast and start to desperately wrestle with the creature
>punch its head until its blue, slimy brains are all over the floor
>wake up for real

This shit may not be for everyone

I'm in the same position. Even a fragment of consciousness is enough to sent me spiraling back to the world of the waking.
