So anyway just decided to start this based on the discussion going on in the shout box. Lucid dreams are dreams in which you can somehow be aware of your dreamlike state and begin to control what happens around in your dream. Many say that in order to get this you have to induce yourself mentally before sleeping to do so, however this is not always the case. can you control your dreams? do you even dream at all (never remember)?

If so, tell us and also tell of the most interesting dream you've had if it can be told.


As for myself I rather rarely dream at all....In fact im close to never, and usually I cannot control what I see in my dream. Well what i mean is I do not remember my dreams coz as we know we always dream. tongue.gif
grr....012
i usually remeber at least 1 dream per night cuz often things go bad i wake up in the middle and go back to sleep:P then the dream continues and gets better

hehe, when I have a nightmare, sometimes I wake up, and then I go back to sleep, and suddenly, I'm in a different dream. By the way, how do you do that, inducing yourself? I wanna control everything in my dreams, I would make BEAUTIFUL dreams, if you know what I mean wink.gif hehe devil.gif
Deftone
well if u check the shoutbox earlier on JP posted a link to a site. It is not a concrete way to induce dreaming. Like its more of a mindset and its easier said than done...but basically try to think in ur mind that u will dream...and what about..and if u will control it..all before u fall asleep. It technically helps. then if u wake from a dream, go and write it in a book..such things like that help
.::PHPfanatic::.
That would be very interesting to write all dreams in a book but I never feel like it.

I myself very, very rarely dream and if I do, remember them. I don't remember being able to control any of them either. I'm an extremely deep sleeper (ie: the universe could be imploding and it wouldn't even phase me - or a black hole sucking up the Earth) lol.

I rarely dream... I think we'd all be a bit happier if we could control when and what we dream smile.gif At least the guys.....

Bah, I clicked on the wrong vote... I thought it said "Sometimes I Control them"... I didn't see the "And" there... tongue.gif

Depeding on the dream, I can sometimes be in full control of it... to a realistic extent. I can't do things unrealistically in a dream... sortof. Well, I can't be like flying or something like that, just on my own tongue.gif

I've had weird instances with dreams... most of you know that by now tongue.gif
grr....012
yah it makes it alot of fun when you can make your own dreams.. well not make um but fix um.. like your in a nightmare and all the sudden your on a tv show or something like that lol
Deftone

grr....012

Deftone

Sometimes I have sets of 3 or 4 dreams in one night each dealing with something different perhaps in a prophetic likeness trying to tell me something, I am not going to go into detail because they are kind of personal, but quite often I have rather strange dreams. two nights ago I had a dream I was in a battle or perhaps a competition, there were two man teams and there 3 different kind of warior mech robots you cotrolled by driving,one was a AT-AT walker but it could fold the legs up and become a small fighting jet, another was a jeep with a gunner seat (similar to warthogs on halo) and the next was like a futuristic harrier jet.
suddely my AT-AT walker fell on it's side and suddenly I saw one of my opponents and I began questioning him on how to switch the at at to mode 2 (being the jet mode) right at the end of my sentence I woke up and my friend was laughing at me and my friend asked me what I was talking about. Just an interesting dream hahhaaha


Sorry about me typing the "N" key on my keyboard is being a jerk

although it makes me sound as if I have a nazal problem hahahaha
it is fixed now
.::PHPfanatic::.
That is very interesting, hrad, not to mention complex.
I have one dream that has stuck in my head for maybe 12 years, that of which involved a witch and dog. The dog jumped through the window and the witch followed... that's about all I remember fairly impressive for such a long time period.
GTX5_Crusader
I've had continuations of my dreams. I have several different dreams that I can remember in almost full detail that have been continueing for years now. I see the entire dream too. Basically like seeing a shortened version of ''Part 1'' and going on to the full version of ''Part 2''.
SHERB
lol its like a bad mini series in a tv show.

my dreams which rarley remberer. are quite uneventfull. however i used to have the same dream repatedley where i would get on top of a pizaa place that for no reason was like 40 flors high and jump with a box of pizaa in my hand. of course would always wake up before hitting.
Rezza
LOL! good dream Sherb...

I personally very rarely remember my dreams, if I do, it's something REALLY exciting...
SHERB
hey does anyone else wake up in the morning and try to peice together what there dream was coming from if they remember it. like where something is in your dream and you can relate it to something that happened before you went to sleep?
Deftone
come to think of it that could go well for a tv show

"Crusader Dreams" ..catchy title too
grr....012
i had a bad nightmare last night and it was so real!! for once i couldnt control it sad.gif *gets scared and hides*
GTX5_Crusader
"Crusader's Dreams" ??

I think they would be a cross of JAG, Star Trek, and Everybody Loves Raymond... "JAG Loves Star Trek"... bleh... I'm thinking to much again...

I get that! I walk around for about a half hour trying to think if they were important dreams, or something I can forget about. I hate what that happens.
hrad
I often get dissappointed when I find out that the events which took place in the dream world aren't real

The dream world MWahahahhahhahaha souds like somethig from a strange movie
Rezza
Crusader Dreams? huh? I don't get that... can you please explain this! is that like a TV show? in which case, "Nice" Title! mad.gif
Deftone
sigh...read what he said about his dreams...they said it would make a good tv show...so i suggested the name Crusader Dreams coz it fits as a title and because his nick is Crusader
Rezza
laugh.gif laugh.gif now I feel embarassed blush.gif ... come to think of it, I had never noticed he had Crusader in his name unsure.gif .. I always thought of him as GTX... oh well...

now back on topic

*quitely crawls back into his dark corner*

grr....012
there was like sat night i couldnt sllep at all it was crazy i dont know why i tried so fricken hard to fall asleep to err!!.. i missed out on a whole night of dreaming. then i had to work at 7:00 am!!!
GTX5_Crusader
I hate it when that happens...
grr....012
see you can tell when i sleep cuz i wake up happy sice i can control my dreams. the only time i cant is when im so tired like last night when i woke up i didnt even remeber what happened 1 hr before i fell asleep. i woke up confused?? weird huh:(
fluky_daft
i didnt sleep much last night but i did dream that i got kidnapped by the mob it was kinda cool...i was at a friends house looking for money in her basement and they came in and kidnappped me!
Julia's_Phate
I had a dream last night that involved my personality. I was 3 or 4 different people at once. Very odd. I had my basic and complete personality trying to help the flaw in my personality that makes me very sensitive to other peoples touch. (I hate to be touched by most people, even family members) I also had other parts of my personality which weren’t main characters, such as a DJ (my fondness that boarders on obsession for music), and someone cleaning which is my need for order in my life (lacking at this time). Has anyone else ever had a dream where your personality splits either to help another part or just to play out different interactions?
fluky_daft
No but that would rock!
SHERB
nope i dont know that i would like that i think i would find that kinda creepy. sorta like the movie identity.
Deftone
yeah that would get kinda scary. i dont wanna see other sides of me.
Julia's_Phate
heh. it did use to bother me, but i've just kinda accepted it as a way to keep me sane. I was thinking about my dream some more and realized that i left out the part that the person that represented my phobia of being touched was almost twice the size I am. The DJ and everyone else were my size, and it never really occurred to me that I should be frightened of this giant. Odd huh?
Deftone
interesting. Size does not matter hehe. THe bigger they are the harder they fall. The better you can upercut their nuts. lol

i never have that many interesting dreams. Just odd, but not as cool
fluky_daft
i think that would be great for me because i definately lack in seeing what i do wrong and all of my sides...i see what i want and i know only the things i want to know and remember about myself...i dont think i could handle seeing my phobia side though!!!! help.gif
Deftone
lol yeah i dun think anyone would like to see that tongue.gif
fluky_daft
i love to sleep wether i dream or not b/c its just nice to get away from everything and everyone but the dreaming helps out a lot! tongue.gif
Deftone
ah. I actually do not dream a lot, just like i do not dream a lot. IM like a living breathing zombie here. tongue.gif
fluky_daft
haha nice
Deftone
not all the time but it has its rewards tongue.gif
oldtimer
I voted: Very often and I controlled them.

That is true for the most part but sometimes they'll slip and commit something so unexpected that I would never even have thought of...

They're of the [clean] love type.

Usually passionate, hot-and-heavy making out with a particular girl from school.

It never goes beyond that... cool.gif
