Dreaming

Dreams have always been incredibly fascinating to me. I've gotten to the point now where I can usually remember at least one dream each night, sometimes more. Last night I can recall several, and one of them was lucid. I learned that I am not a very good lucid dreamer... I pick the strangest things to conjure up. I realized I was dreaming, so I made myself fly, summoned dinosaurs that wouldn't eat humans, and made out with someone. Lol I think I need to get my priorities in line.

Do any of you have any interesting dreaming experience or dream knowledge?

I once had a lucid dream, I was pretty shocked afterwards because I got to see my true nature: I turned into a psychopatic maniac! I was blowing up stuff, destroying stuff, throwing kilometres up people in the air. Should I consider getting help?

I'm trying to get into lucid dreaming but being the procrastinating bastard that I am, I never do my reality checks or do my dream recall.

I should get into this though. Lucid dreaming sounds like something I wanted to do for my whole life.

I wouldn't be too worried, Ginyu. I've had way freakier dreams than that. It sucks when you can remember most of them.

@sm11211: I don't do any of that either. Over time, I've started to remember more and more of my dreams without training myself at all. I'm not sure why this is the case. I wouldn't get too wrapped up in it, though. I'm sure it's a nice experience while you're in the dream, but it's not really worth it. I can only vaguely remember it now, and I can't remember any of the sensations associated with it except that it "felt good." It wasn't worth the crap load of other dreams I also remembered from last night. :p

Also, if you don't do it right you could end up living a nightmare. That didn't happen to me, fortunately.

You mean the W.I.L.D method right? That's the method that gives you sleep paralysis and all that crazy hallucinations.

I mostly practiced the M.I.L.D method which is the slower yet safer route into lucid dreaming.

Yeah, that's what I used to try, too. Turns out I didn't really need it, I guess. Keep a dream journal, though. That's supposed to help.

WILD works better than MILD, but WILD is very dangerous and yes, it could result in sleep paralyses. It's also a harder technique to master. It'd go with the MILD technique

I'm not sure I'm familiar with the exact differences. I know that the technique you guys are talking about is the one with dream/reality checks and such, and the WILD one has something to do with sleep paralysis.

I think I've only ever had one accidental lucid dream. I want to try it but meh.

I'm not into any of that dream-interpretation s***, but I used to be p well-versed in psychodynamic theories of it. They're dumb but pretty cool. I think more contemporary theories are talk about its evolutionary values (practice) or that there's no purpose to it at all.

WILD: Is when you wake up after 4-6 hours of sleep and then you have to wake up and then you have to stay still in your bed (with your arms at your side) for about half an hour without being too tired or too sleepy and then you sort of transition into the dream while being concious. It sounds really cool but it could backfire if you make a mistake (and that's when the hallucinations kick in :lol: )

MILD: Is harder but you have to recall your dreams and from them, you need to find common dream signs (maybe a common setting like school) and in your waking life, you need to perform reality checks and ask yourself "Am I dreaming?" It's really hard unlike the WILD method but it's safer and you won't have hallucinations :lol: . Using a dream journal is essential in helping with dream recall. Meditating before you go to sleep and after you wake up helps so i've read.

I can remember my dreams somewhat easily from time to time.

Like today, I had a dream where I was using a toilet in the lobby area of my school with no doors or anything. :lol: Nobody even looked at me oddly or said anything which is really weird.
