Somehow at some point, learned how to pee in my dreams but not in my bed. I have ascended
🤣
OMG do you have those dreams where you can't find a toilet and if you do it's full of shit overflowing and then you resort to the shower or tub and they too are nasty messes of all kinds of trash and poo and .. etc.. I'm a very clean / neat person. how can that cause such dreams ? UGH!
Nope, if I urinate in my dreams, I wake up in a swimming pool.
I've done it once or twice
Theres a catch tho... every time I pee in my dream, it's an endless stream until I wake up and actually run to take a piss.
Whatever you do, don’t pee in your dream. It’s a trap.
It causes bedwetting
Fortunately when I find a toilet in my dreams, it is always unusably out of order.
I was in the hospital after surgery when I was younger, and dreamt I was on the side of my family's old trailer and started pissing like we always did as kids in the country. Woke up and was covered in warm piss. It's a trap
I used to have a bed wetting problem as a kid so I some how developed this thing where if I am peeing normally in a dream it means I really need to pee and If I'm peeing blood in a dream I'm starting to pee or I'm peeing. Gets me to wake up real fast.
I almost took a crap in my dream
One thing I recommend people do in their lucid dreams is talk to themselves one on one. Imagine yourself sitting right infront of you and ask them what you want and you will always get an honest answer since it’s your brain that you’re talking to.
It's a great method for self check. You can lie to yourself but not your conscious
@@abhinavanurag7908 inb4 my conscious insults me
I can't, if I become aware in my dreams it all comes crashing down.
Except in nightmares for some reason 🤔
@@magnus5747 Same
In my nightmares even when I'm aware I can't wake up and it forces me to look at the horrifying thing
@@PROPLAYEN yeah I hate that feeling 😞
My worst nightmare was when I didn't even know if I really waked up, I was aware in some kind of nightmare loop....
I kept waking up thinking I was safe, but no... And that kept up for a couple of times.
Never sweated that much in my life 🤣
I'm not sure if I've ever actually lucid dreamed, but i remember one time in a dream, i realized i was dreaming, and randomly yelled "This is a dream!", and then I woke up. But the weird part is I felt the process of waking up and remembered it.
I once lucid dreamed one time because you dream was too stupid. My dream made zero sense it it took me a while to realize. Then I started making fire with my hand and then I woke up. Pretty mad because I haven't been able to lucid dream again
I’m really not sure if I ever lucid dreamed either but I know one time I realized I was dreaming and tried this thing where people would slap themselves to wake up. And apparently it worked. So yeah. That was interesting.
Yeah it’s so weird how your brain can very rarely ever recognize that you’re in a dream. Then when you do you instantly wake up. Somewhat reminds me of divergent if you’ve ever seen it.
@@mxze8954 knowing you are dreaming IS lucid dreaming, u did it, same with dillandvito
@@phoenixehc OH, thanks. Makes more sense. Never realized, that’s pretty cool.
The only side-effect is waking up & realizing how f cking miserable reality is.

Na man it's just a dream too
Go Binge Watch NGE while Lucid and Comeback
also that you cannot learn new skills while in a lucid dream. Try learning the Piano for instance, it doesn't work, because you already can play anything in the dream. Lucid dreams are sort of a self deception.
@@jayco9214 he's just saying it... the mind is far more powerful than most people realize that's why people have woken up out of Comas never playing an instrument once in their life for instance piano and being able to play Mozart and Beethoven because almost everything we've ever seen heard or smelled is locked in our brain somewhere it just is a matter of how many many synapses connect for us to be able to recall that memory and it's also why people got a concussion and it rewired their neuroplasticity in their brain and all of a sudden spoke 10 language is when they thought they only knew one language because they have heard those languages in their life somewhere or another but didn't practice enough for their brain to wire it to be at the Forefront of their brain so yes you can practice the skill in lucid dreaming because it untap some of your subconscious and like the old adage practice makes perfect
Me: _whoa im in a dream_
Brain: *lol* lets wake this dude up
Lmao just explained every beginner lucid dreaming
you get too excited you wake up.
Happens less and less the more you lucid dream
Lmaoooo
It's always either that or I'll slowly lose the awareness and slip back into regular dreaming
This happens when I get into fights in my dreams
I am 20 years old and an engineering student. I have chronic back pain so it’s hard for me to sit down and study for long periods of time. I have somehow learned how to lucid dream and write physics problems and the different possibilities the nights before exams. I then end up doing well on the exam. It’s crazy
I wonder Alex if you are able to heal yourself of the chronic back pain. Have you tried anything like this? I am aware that people have, for example, burnt themselves with a cigarette in a lucid dream and woken up with a burn scar. Apparently the scar looked like it had been there for years and with no pain. Could we do the opposite? There is a YT video on this; "Lucid Dreaming_ Waking Up in the Dream World" Channel: "Think Anomalous"
@@markgoogolplex2572bruh thats just flat out lying. A dream can not affect you physically like that
thats great dude.... Im the opposite.... I actually feel pain in my sleep... I wake up to to pain in the "real" world
i managed to do shit once actually… never again though :(
You may be able to find guidance in this dream realm for resolving your back pain. I highly recommend looking into Robert Waggoner, and reading his book, Lucid Dreaming: Gateway To The Inner Self.
When I was younger I repeatedly experienced dreams in which I died, like getting shot in the head or fall to my death, even weird contraptions that would crush me. Although it may sound quite horrible, I've never experienced these dreams as a nightmare and rather saw them as an interesting one.
The reason for that is what happened after I died. For some reason I felt the shock of death, like someone giving you a big scare, something that would normally wake someone up and thank the gods it was just a dream. For me, however, I stayed asleep and experienced myself floating in empty darkness for sometimes the feeling of hours. The calmth and just sheer nothingness of it all felt relaxing, as if someone were to continuously tell you that "It's all okey now; It's all over; You can relax". Even today (about 6 years since my last one) I still wish to experience it once more, once more to just feel the calm embrace of darkness, the calm embrace of feeling save, complete and finished.
This is so accurate im 17 and also had it many times i still have it. Like once a week sometimes i wake up, calmy with my hole bed wet. And then there im confused why and how and then i try to think what i have dreamed and dont feel scared at this point but i know in the dream i felt al the emotions
yeah me too, i was in an abandoned farm with an old wooden house and, whilst i was walking up the stairs some random guy with a pitchfork pulls me down by my leg and starts stabbing me with it about 20 times and i actually felt the pain, after that i instantly woke up with a massive jumpscare and my entire body jarred like crazy. dreams are weird
I once had a dream where I was in my driveway and there was this guy with a gun and he shot me 3 times and I just remember looking down at it and being in shock that I had been shot
I once lucid dreamed being a goldfish in a fancy aquarium. All I did was float, did the *bloop* *bloop* and said to myself *"this is nice"*
Seems legit Lmaoo
That's nice
BLOOP BLOOP
I'm jealous
That was your past life 👀
I’ve had what I’d call semi-lucid dreams. I was aware I was dreaming and could control my own actions but never could control the environment
This happens to me also
That's still a lucid dream, lol. There's no such thing as 'semi-lucid', if you're lucid, you're lucid.
I can fly or be stronger or whatever in my dreams, not because of me realizing it's a dream, but because in my dreams that's something my instinct would do, knowing it has that ability. The same as being able to walk in real life, because it's simply something I know I can do. So I can also not control the environment or control what I'm dreaming about.
I have this form of lucid dream pretty much every might.
Sometimes I enjoy them, sometimes I don’t don’t mind forgetting what I dreamed because they are too weird or something like that.
I have that every night
the first times you lucid dream, dont have s"x. You will 99% of the time wake up because your not experienced enough to keep urself calm. Most people wake up the second after they realize they are dreaming, because they get so excited and confused that the brain gets super active to figure out whats happening
Damn that sucks 😕
I did this when I was in a coma. I could listen to what was going on around me, or change the landscape to fit my wants. It came and went, and I've since described it as being awake in the coma and being asleep. It was surreal to say the least. I can't remember much of it now, but I do remember knowing I was doing it, knowing I was in a coma, even shouting replies up at the sky to people in the room where I lay.
I had a lucid dream and when i was aware i was actually dreaming i turned myself into a blue whale in the ocean, i was swimming in the vast sea and i could see everything, i could see the fish, the coral reef, turtles, it was freaking amazing.
I'm having a vivid lucid dream regularly, in it am flying on some sort of a black reptile with huge wings & mirror ish reflective scales that flips backwards in wind direction and creates a camouflage with its surroundings, i have had this dream 377 times now and everytime it gets wilder and more detailed, the wildest one is when i flew around and then landed on the pyramids, i woke up that morning on the sound of the heavy breathing and winds made by wings flapping and had actual sand stuck on my hair and shoulders, I have a shower every night before bed there is no way any of this would have been stuck to my body and hair. I named the creature Nahruon The Obsidian. My 1st name is Nourhan so it's my name backwards. I have no idea what any of this means but if it's any indication of my abilities in the past present or future, it's worth finding out.
Does that really work?
@Geesed Okay.. Thank you!
Inception?
@Asoka the exact opposite actually, i’m quite skinny
The only time I achieved a lucid dream, the second I realized it was lucid i got too excited and woke up immediately 😭
Same lmao, I got up from bed and walked to my door and put my finger through my hand and freaked out and then woke up
same same, lol i cant drive in real life, i needed to scape in dream, oniric me went "shit, i cant drive, oh well it's a dream, i can do whatever i want" then got scared about being driving withouth knowhing how = me awakes >_
every time i lucid dream and realize it and wake up
@@juanpablofajardoramirez1008 That is a catch to it. If you don't know how to do something, you can't do it in a dream without first imagining it. The only limits to lucid dreams are the limits of your mind. So anything you haven't been mentally prepared for will cause you to wake or lose control. Particularly awkward is a lucid nightmare. They're extremely difficult to control because your brain is actively causing you fear and will try to force you to submit. It takes a solid confidence in yourself to change it, or harder, let it happen, which is useful to dispel fears in your conscious state.
Yep I remember my first time being exactly the same, for lack of a better explanation I knew the dream was falling apart because I got too excited so using the last bit of uhmm 'time' I decided to free-fall in my dream because I hadnt had one of those in years. Was quite the blast. It occured during a semester I was taking a class over the philosophy of sleeping, dreaming, and dying so kaybe that eventually influenced me in being able to have a lucid dream. I cant say ive used proper methods to force a lucid dream. I guess in hindsight I became aware of myself because I looked into a mirror and my apperance was a bit off, I was wearing my favorite clothes but my eyes appeared to be made out of smoke thats what kicked off the lucidity and excitement.
I one time had a dream that I got in a fight with an entire group of people. I took out a good number, but was still outnumbered, so I ran, and jumped off the balcony knowing exactly the time my alarm clock would go off, taking me to safety.
That’s dope dreams always be ending with some cool shit right when your brain knows when your alarm is about to go off
whenever i fight in dreams all my limbs are extremely heavy and slow
@@joethetoad bro same. Im one of the strongest in my class but in my dreams i feel like i cant punch (even when i punch i dont have strength. It is so annoying tho)
Once, I was inside a airport waiting for a flight and a team of CIA agents tried to assassinate me. Turned into a large shootout, but my body guard would not hand me a gun to protect myself lmao.
@@DanielDaBest45 DUDE SAME
I experimented with controlling my dreams in the early 90's while writing an essay on the subject for a college class. One of the books I read gave real specific instructions for this. First realize you are dreaming by looking at words on anything, look away from it, and then look back at it. It will have changed or even appear to change while you are still looking at it. Once you realize your dreaming the first step is to try and float, then spin your dream environment, and then finally fly. Once you can fly you are in complete control of the dream, and can go anywhere and do anything. I was able to accomplish all of this within a few days or weeks. Haven't used it much throughout the rest of my life, but it still seems very useful.
That used to happen in my dreams when I was a kid now I can't even remember what or even if I had a dream
one time i had a good dream with my friend and my brother, and my friend got his eye poked out and i felt it slowly decend into nightmare. so i healed his eye and changed the situation and place and had a fun time till at the end someone hunted us in a warehouse and i woke up.
@@thebushcraftguy235 İ think your brain couldn't decide if it should be a nightmare or a dream 😅
I was in a old building with many rooms. Long corridor with opened doors. I was walking and looking into the rooms. One of the room was all in white tiles like in old hospital floor, walls and ceiling were tiled. In a middle of the room there was a stand with opened book. I kept walking, past that room but than thought - I am in a dream I can do whatever I want! I can read this book! Than I turned around and walked back to that white tiled room. The book was big and ancient. I was anticipating to read something interesting but I couldn't. The letters were combined together and looked like worlds but they were not real worlds. They did not make any sense. I was disappointed and continue browsing the house.
i tried to fly but i could not get to go up, it took effort to stay afloat and at moments i would literally fall down through the ground and than back up just a few meters above the ground.

I've been practicing this for probably 15 years now. I was never into instruments but I was always playing guitar while lucid dreaming. Turns out I'm pretty decent at it. Pretty insane to think about. Never played it before other than in my dreams and I picked it up in a few hours. Our mind in a amazing thing.
You my friend are something we call a genius
@@twister-1783 lmao
Wow, that's amazing.
You actually practiced the guitar in your dream. Since dreams are so life like you actually played it. It is a thing some times people do, my self included.
In Germany we say a Geschichte aus dem Paulanergarten
I usually seek out mirrors when I'm lucid dreaming to look at my dream self. It's usually me from different times in my life and I just find that fascinating. Sometimes I just explore the world I'm in and other times I use my consciousness to overcome whatever is chasing me in said dream.
I self taught myself lucid dreaming years ago and used this to cure myself of sleep paralysis. It worked.
Can you tell me how you do it?
@@User-jr7vf I would decide on how I want the dream to end, then lay back down and close my eyes to imagine how the events would unfold from the point in the dream where i had awoken. I eventually fall asleep dreaming and the dream might change or stop altogether, but the sleep paralysis doesn't come back for that night.
@@ndzmendoza8313 thanks
I'm on medication for severe sleep paralysis. Lucid dreaming is all hype. I'll take my meds and sleep, thanks but no thanks.
I had lucid dreams a few times when I was about 7. One time, I just happened to realize I was in a dream, and told some of the made-up people in my head that they were a part of my dream. Of course they refused to believe it, and I strangely felt sorry for them.
Trolling people in your dream 😂
LMAO SAME 💀exept i keep trying to tell people there in a dream even years after I was 7. I still feel sorry for the people...even though they usually huge jerks in my dreams.
I had this type of dream where I was trying to tell people too. And they didn't believe me either. This was probably 2 months ago
I saw a video on lucid dreaming this one time and the guy in it said it's hilarious arguing with the people in the dream about whether or not it's actually a dream. Seems like that's happened to you.
EDIT: Also y'all in the replies
I actually was in a dream a few years ago ab asked one of my school mates if we were in a dream he said yes
Problem with lucid dreaming and why it's so difficult to do is whenever you do achieve it you get excited and therefore wake up.
Yup
"Aw fuck I'm" ...(wakes up) worst part of waking up, is realizing your never going to know how that dream was going to to end. Its like watching a movie, in the final act, all suddenly copies become destroyed before the end.
@@falleneldor I can lucid dream, and when I wake up because of too much excitement, I can fall asleep again and continue the dream.
Most of the time I know if I am in a dream but I do not always want to interfere and just let things happen by itself. Because too much interaction costs energy and when you wake up you feel you had not enough rest.
@@duudsuufd thats cool! for me its more like watching a movie or being an actor with a script as i do not control the outcome or determine the interactions. Since i have sleep apnea i almost never have totally restful sleep. Its probally why i don't have as much control as others do while having lucid dreaming.
dude yes!!!
"you don't believe it?"
I don't only believe it, I at one point, was able to
I "trained" unconsciously to lucid dream
At first I was able to control like a few seconds but after months I was able to control hours upon hours of dreams
It was the best thing of my life, the feeling of all powerness is amazing
After one year or so of this I started not even remembering my dreams anymore
It's meen almost 5 years till last time I remembered a dream, but I'm starting again
How do you lucid dream?
@@TEC-vl9xm idk, as i said i trained unconsciusly
at one point you just realize that you are draming and you are in perfect control of everything
imagine the scenes in Inception where they bend the city
almost like that, everything is kind of confusing and obfuscated BUT you can do whatever
I tried to do it for the first time last night and had something off a five minute dream before waking up. I realized where I was, walked around happy I figured it out, and woke up
@@Nagluuu ah I see, I want to learn how to do it, it seems really interesting
Wow! What do you think was the reason you stopped remembering your dreams?! Is it getting better now? Are you able to lucid dream again yet?
I’ve only lucid dreamt once in my life.. it was the weirdest and coolest thing ever. And when I realised I was dreaming I asked the people in the dream if I’m dreaming and suddenly everyone around said no and shook their head but I figured it out.. best dream of my life
Holy crap, im lucid dreaming! I can play gta in real life but in my dream!
The news: 13 people found dead with their cars stolen
😭😭
XD
😂😂
dw that was either fake news, fake news in your dream or actual news in ur dream....
When you forgot your pills and go psycho XD
I remember becoming self aware in my sleep and for some reason I thought, "Wow I can do anything, I could probably even wake myself up right now." Then I woke up and was pissed that I did that.
lol
Lol I know your pain I was in a nightmare and I said that and I didn't even know lol I could have just flew outta there
Even when I’m not lucid dreaming, I’ve learned how to wake up if I don’t like what’s happening. It’s like deep in my subconscious so I don’t need to be lucid to do it
Dankrupt Same thing happened to me. I can will myself awake
@@brainzpvz2592 years ago i had a nightmare for a few nights... and it was disturbing. It was something that was chasing me and when it was about to get me i kept on waking up. However the last time i had it it became lucid. The question was... didn't this happen before? And after that i realised it's a dream and then tried to wake myself up while running from the thing but it didn't work. And then... i was like... wait... THIS IS MY WORLD! And i simply turned around and started to chase IT.. and it was running away from me. Never dreamed of that since. But that was trully the greatest experience ever.
I used to use a mouth tobacco called snus that you place under your left or right for lip.
(If you have seen Swedish hockey players, you know what I mean.)
Anyhow, I used to fall asleep sometimes with tobacco still under the lip and at the time I used a CPAP breathing mask against sleep apnea that made the tobacco dryer and uncomfortable under the lip. So, I used to walk around in my dream trying to spit out the tobacco by I never managed to do it. (There was always more of the tobacco under my lip.)
I try everything in the dream and usually around the time when I literally have the water tap in the mouth trying to flush the snuff and it doesn't work, I will realize that I am dreaming.
That's amazing and I usually take a look around to discover where I am, looking out the window and so on.
There usually also other people present and as I was standing there talking to three of them, I told them that I was having a dream and that therefore they couldn't be real.
They looked shocked and didn't seem to like what I just told them.
I could see that they felt bad about it and that they weren’t aware about it just as I wasn't aware about that I was dreaming only moments before.
Some good advice?!
Don't give in to the astonishment (as Terence McKenna would have said) and get to overwhelmed or to excited over things because it can get you to slowly wake up in steps turning the lucid dream into an ordinary daydream that can't be forced to continue.
This has happened to me when I finally found and fell in love with "the girl of my dreams" or when in a not so noble cause as above are trying to have more than innocent kisses with someone, I find hot. I had to laugh at myself when I at one time woke up while giving my dry old pillow a big lick with my tongue.
I also have experienced totally different kind of lucid dreams that are as real as this reality.
The only way I know that I am dreaming is that my father and sister are still alive in the dream.
That's how I know in which reality am currently in. (It would be impossible for me to distinguish between them in any other way.)
I knew they both died so I understand that it can't be base reality.
I accept it and that way I get to talk to them and to cheat death by spending some more time with my loved ones.
I am and have always been a lucid dreamer! I always remember my dreams but that makes it hard for me in every day to day life, because it’s hard for me to remember what actually happened in real life, or if it was just a dream. I also normally go back to places in my dreams that I have dreamt of like over 5 to 10 years ago which is amazing to me. I can tell you what all those places look like, inside and out. But seeing as how they are all made up I could never tell you where it’s located lol Most of the things that I do dream end up happening, or they are just complete and total utter nonsense and an adventure… it wasn’t until you made this video that I actually realized what I have been doing! I always knew I was a Lucid dreamer, and could control somethings, but I never knew I could control my dreams 100%!! That’s amazing!
For everyone that has problems with waking up soon after realizing you're dreaming, rub your hands together once you realize you are dreaming and start to wake up. It stabilizes you in your dream.
I've had dreams where I "wake up" at least three or more times, only to later realize I was sleeping the entire time. In the past, lucid dreaming has happened to me, but it was never something I thought I could consciously force to happen. That was an interesting video to watch right before going to bed.
I didn't sleep for four days straight my dream felt like four Freaking years well i do can control it but i just cant wake up and then i woke up it was just a month 😂 (being asleep for a month is still...)
I once had a Lucid dream where I felt that I was on the verge of waking up and I commanded myself to "stay asleep" and it worked.
@@taqresu5865 one's I had a lusid dream but it didn't start tell I saw someone it was my brother that passed 4 days before I started to panic in my dream it felt like I woke up but then realized I'm still sleeping and it happened 3 more time when I fanlly woke up it was really hot and I just keep seeing his face and then I just fell asleep. That was 3 months ago And I always remember it before I fall asleep.

This is awesome. I've been lucid dreaming since I was 5 years old. Except for times when I am just exhausted, I lucid dream almost nightly. What I have learned is, if I am lucid dreaming and there is something I can't "direct", I really need to pay close attention to it and write that in my journal.
Someone I know had two unexplainable dreams. I’m just going to call them… well, “them” to keep it anonymous. Once they kept having the same dream of a person in a car at a park driving down a road crashing and dying. That came true. Another time it felt like they were fighting something telling some sort of presence that this person that they had a crush on in 2nd grade was *not* going to die. They actually felt physically tired for the rest of the week. They ended up telling their mother that she would see something in the news that following month. And, sometime that month, their previous crush was in a terrible car crash. Their brother was nearby and pulled the person out of the car, barely before it exploded. If either of them had been a smidge closer, they would have died. That’s my story.
Whenever I have lucid dreams, I literally go “oh i’m dreaming…I guess I’ll see what happens” and then proceed to keep going in the dream like I didn’t know it was a dream. Honestly a cool feeling.
same, when I realise I'm dreaming and don't immediately wake up, I can't bring myself to change the course of the dream, like my brain is controlling my will and is stopping me from doing what I want
@@scrubysponge7282 same its weird but i want to try and control it you know?
I've dreamed before but usually my dreams run in 120p like it has such bad quality I barely can see and had dreams like a zombie apocalypse in my school and I was the only one alive, also had a dream of my parents having a divorce like what?
Same bro
Agreed kindof. in all my dreams. I am some all knowing god. I know what happens before it happens. And I am sometimes able to change the dream. But often don't.
People: Woah! How’d you get so strong?
Me: I imagined myself lifting weights.
"Bruh, can you lift?"
"I think, therefore I do."
How'd you lose all that weight?!
Finally able to get some good sleep!

I'll never forget this one dream I had where, without sharing too many personal details, I had something I really desired for a long time. I was having a blast of a time and it was all absolutely perfect until I realised I was seeing myself from a third person perspective and decided to ask "Wait how come I can see myself like tha..." and then I woke up.
yeah same here then you just wish you could go back and ask why they are lying to you and get revenge
I once had a lucid dream that I was falling down stairs that looked like the keys of a piano, when I woke up I still heard the same song I played, I played it on piano and now I have my own song
That's cool, in a way.
"wake up after 5-6 hours of sleep and then go back to bed"
Me who barely sleeps 6 hours: 👁👄👁
Same
ditto
feel you man i get 2 sleeps a day of both 2 hours
I go to bed about 5 1/2 to 6 1/2 hours before the alarm goes off, so waking and going back to sleep is out of the question. However, I have still been able to have several lucid dreams. Of course this is over a time span of about two years. Even though 8 hrs of sleep is recommended ; It isn't absolutely necessary.
If I sleep 8 hrs I feel like shit after. I’ve always slept 4-5 hours. Midnight-4:30am
1 tip for anyone who wants to try lucid dreaming: never trust a toilet
Look all you want! But hey they are are too weird to use
Yes. Every dream vids always has this thread I it. Also if you're giving birth in a dream... ... You will pee

I really wanted to ask Women or girls if they have Lucid Dreams about this, How on Earth do you guys deliver babies for the first time unless your mind goes through vivid, Lucid rehearsals?
How can you guys prepare for such fear and pain?
I had dreams that had very poor imitations of pain like falling down a hill but it didn't really hurt but I felt in a way? Let us know more, please?
The other thing is that now you have a developing human inside you and there must be an internal language. How does it really feel to grow a child inside your body?
@@xSupermanstightsx that seriously happened to me too
Woow thank you for the explanation… I have always wanted to keep a diary of my dreams… now I have a second reason why I should
The surrealism movement in art is also based un dreams, actually, the painters used to fell asleep with a spoon in their hand, and a dish under it, so when they fell asleep, it would drop, making a loud sound that would wake them up, and from that short dream they had, they would develop their paintings.
I'm pretty sure absinthe helped too.

As you take your first step through your bedroom wall, your hearing is greeted with the soft irritable buzzing sound of ceiling office lights, and your eyes are overwhelmed by the ugly yellow carpeted room and wallpaper covered walls. Confused, you glance about your surroundings, trying to understand what you stepped into. The room appears empty, along with the rooms beyond the one you stand in. You attempt to step back into your own room, but find yourself in a similar room you were just in. You start running. Room after room, it was all looks the same. The buzzing gets louder. You cover your ears, and hope you will eventually wake up from the nightmare.
Welcome to the Backrooms.
I hate no clipping through walls in my dreams. It feels like putting your face through something soft but solid like silly putty. I prefer punching a hole in the wall.
what really sucks is the girl still turns me down even in my dreams -
@Fluffstery Fluffstery he shouldn’t want supermodels to be in his league!
Oof
You can just turn around and imagine she says yes this time and ask her again
@Fluffstery Fluffstery i Just realized if a girl is out of your league you are out of her league too
That's because u trying to talk. Your zipper should be the one doing the talking after all it's your dreams.
I taught myself how to lucid dream to battle my nightmares when I was still a child. Now I have build up my own "dream island" and i visit it every single night, for nearly 10 years now, every dream happens on that same island. I love it. For me personally, I don't even now what it's like to not dream or not remember.
I had this exact same experience getting into lucid dreaming.
I’m building a dream “island” by splitting my dream, and having two dreams at once, then conjuring an older dream to take the place of a dream, and together with the new one expand the “island”
But I can split and have 3 dreams at once, and actively have 7 on immediate standby, rather than deep memory
This video is amazing! It's more relatable than anything I've seen about dreams, especially the beginning. I'm glad to know I'm not the only one who had dreams influence their life in some way or another. A year or two ago I've started writing sort of a book based off a dream I had, and I keep adding content to it based off other similiar dreams.
"writing songs in his sleep"
Wow, that brings a whole new meaning to "Because a vision softly creeping left it's seeds while I was sleeping"
Bruh
The sound of silence what a great song
90% of em don’t even get it
"And the vision that was planted in my brain, Still remains" gives it even more meaning
I do this many times as a musician myself. I literally hear the entire track in full being played by a band or on a sound system there or something.
Whenever i try lucid dreaming i slowly fall to sleep while screaming in my own head "PLEASE, LUCID DREAM LETS GO, I AM CONSCIOUS, I CAN DO THIS!" and then wake up hours later highly disappointed
Pick an activity you have done many many times and focus on that while falling to sleep. Somewhere between awake and asleep you will realize you are in a dream. With practice it will come. I have traveled for the last 30 years (over 2.5 million miles with Delta). My first lucid dream was about walking through an airport.
@@jamesasmithsr1 I love how you come back to this video to give people advice.
Maybe try to work on your dream recall first.
just let it go, and wait a few days, brain dosent obey well when you scream at it
Start telling yourself when your awake ok I'm awake
And when your sleep tell yourself your asleep an this is a dream. It'll work soon
Not to brag but I have been successfully lucid dreaming for the last 14 years. It is absolutely wonderful and it makes the act of going to sleep an absolutely exciting one... anytime I have a stressful dream there is a point where I become aware and take control if it's a good dream I totally have absolute control. Flying and taking up to the air is fantastic, I always start flying and wonder why cant everyone else can't figure this out, it all seems so easy( in my dreams of course). It kind of feels like in my dreams when I fly I know the secret of life and cant understand why we can't all figure it out. Idk it's fucking amazing
I have had 1 lucid dream when I was about 11ish. I have never slept well all my life, my body clock is tilted so I get tired around 3-5 am . I spent a lot of time at school asleep on my desk, I don't think I missed much! Anyway I'd had very little sleep one night before school and my mum came in telling me to get up. I remember going through the process of getting dressed, the frustration of reluctantly throwing back the warm duvet and feeling the cold cutting my skin to goosebumps. Sliding on my trousers that felt like they had been kept in a fridge over night, hearing the familiar sound of the loose belt jangling as I pulled them up, the crispness of my white shirt and even the smell of my school jumper as I pulled it over my head. Then I woke up still lying in bed with my mum screaming at me that I was going to be late!
Not the most eventful lucid story of all time granted, and I have had better dreams I promise, but none that felt as real as that. The difference being so vast is the reason I can confidently point to that being legit lucid. I have tried, admittedly half arsed, to lucid dream around 10 years ago with no success but with such a fragile body clock I have always gotta be careful in case it flips 180 degrees and I'm awake all night and asleep all day until I can flip it back, making work life a living nightmare! I do want to try again now after watching this vid.... and no, get your heads out the gutter, it's not because of the sexual things he mentions... not only that anyway 😏
The night before playing guitar at my cousin's wedding, I dreamed that I was playing the songs perfectly all night. The next day, I played them perfectly! Thanks dreams!
Nice! I don’t set out to lucid dream, and I typically don’t remember my dreams, but I think I must dream about practicing guitar like 80% of the time. At this point, when I’m invested in a song and I’m struggling, I know that when I come back to it in the morning there will be a drastic improvement. It’s gotta be dream practice.
And that’s called de ja vu
Dreaming about musical instruments forces your brain to recall what notes are played and how in your most memorable state of mind. I practise rainbow six siege in my dreams and it helps alot.
90% of lucid men dreaming.

Honestly, *everyone* does sex when first time in lucid dream, but eventually they get bored. The experience that is overlooked in dreams is eating. Things you will eat in LDs will be probably best in your life.
Shut
@@baltofarlander2618 I have never been able to have a lucid dream. But sex is not what first comes to my mind. I can literally have that in real life.
No i want to do things that are not possible or at least very unlikely in real life. On top of my list:
-Flying (both in the sky but also in the universe)
-Experience a zombie apocalypse
-Go back in time and win all those fights i lost back in school
And when im very old irl:
-Kill myself in the dream to see if i actually die irl from it.
@@RonBest killing yourself in dream won't kill you irl is a thing I can assure you
@@baltofarlander2618 Many theories suggest that the reason we either wake up or change dream when we are 0.1 seconds from dying in a dream is to protect us from actually dying in real life. I am not saying it actually would happen, but i just mean if i am lucid i can control the dream and force it to not change and force myself not to wake, and actually have a true death all the way in the dream and see how my body reacts :)
Takes me back when i was 15 or so, I was pretty much obsessed with lucid dreaming & the techniques to acquire lucid dream states. The first time i successfully had one & decided to try flying, was one of the most amazing things i had ever experienced. Everything felt incredibly real! There was another time when i achieved a lucid dream state & transported myself to a beach. It was like i was in a real beach & i could feel the sand and the water ripples through my fingers. Man, what i'd give to be able to lucid dream again..
i used to lucid dream a lot when i first stopped smoking and at points i’d realize i was dreaming and say it out loud the one time i did everyone around me in the dream stopped and looked at me then i woke up it was the most horrifying shit ever after that i went back out to smoke wasn’t having it 😭😭
You stopped smoking what, Sir? xD

the more you think about it, the more of a mindfuck this comment is...
This is a hidden technique, a kind of shortcut through the bullshit, called the twin position. Took me years to figure out. Waking up from that second dream is the beginning to understanding the mystery of the dream. At that point it is helpful to have your ego a bit under control as one may encounter some very interesting side streets.

I am 19 and till now i have done lucid dreaming twice. It was amazing😍. I did it as i was very sleepy and when i knew i was about to sleep.. I started thinking and imagining of some place and the next moment i am in that place and can do anything.. Of course it didnt work all the time as i told you it only worked twice for me but its worth a try ❤️
The first two times i was terrified. Didnt know what to do and immediately woke up upon recognizing ng it was a dream.
I started journaling and remembering dreams better even without journaling. Then i started having the same dream.
On my third lucid try, i had a repeat dream. I knew what was going to happen and my dream self started focusing on herself.
Then out if nowhere everything became a little brighter and clearer and i knew i was dreaming and DIDNT WAKE UPPPP it was too cool. I ended up building a bridge out of nothing and then jumping off of it, which is where i learned how to fly.
The best thing ive ever done in life.
Ive only been able to fly again maybe twice but i still lucid dream and just go with the flow while knowing im dreaming.
One of the most exciting times of my life 😌
Me in a lucid dream:
Cool I'm about to hook up with a hot girl.
Damn is this a dream?
Yep it's a dream.
I hope i don't wake up.
Damn i woke up.

excuse me but what kind of salad???

Dying in a dream and not waking up, i experienced it once.
It's like a normal dream at first. I was just eating then i felt heat from my neck up to my head and my heart felt like it was being crushed. I died and i guess it was a heart attack.
I went into nothingness. I am conscious but i cant feel anything physically. I dont know whether it's dark or bright, can't see anything. i cant smell anything. I don't feel any heat but it's not cold either. It's just relaxing.
It felt like hours or even days went by. When i woke up, i was just asleep for 30mins.
Ive had a repetitive lucid dream when I was young (50 years ago). That I can't change. I was riding down my suburban street. At the end of the street is a corner shop. I'm riding a scooter with pump-up tyres. 10" pneumatic, white tyres, rubber grip mat. I got to the corner. I think the tyre went flat then suddenly it's night . instantly I'm alert knowing it was only a dream. but it felt so real. Had it several times through my adolescence. I couldn't change it. Now it's in my memory.
Lol I remember a lucid dream from when I was 12 or so. I literally transformed into a duck and flew through Venice, Italy. It was honestly so real, like I could feel the air moving my feathers lol
That's awesome
the question is, had you ever been to or seen enough of venice to know it was venice or... ??
Ducks can’t fly ?

I had a dream about this boy and older woman once. I was on a school bus at this particular part of the dream, and the boy touched my glasses (idk why, I forget). I woke up to my glasses, which I had lost many months prior, on the floor.
Well, half a year later and this boy is in my class. Didn't even realize it till half of the semester, but knew he looked familiar. Ended up writing a little story about the dream and how he was in my class now, and i plan to make it an actual book and publish it eventually.
Wow
one time I dreamt I was in my school with all of my classmates, surprisingly I remember it well. I realized I was dreaming as I went to get up from the desk in the language arts classroom for next period, I just fell like a price of paper. I had never lucid dreamt before so I thought it was amazing! As my class was in the halls getting things from our lockers (for next period) I saw my friend and went to their locker and had a brief discussion about whether or not math was the best subject. After that, I made eye contact with the friend and said “I know I’m dreaming.” I thought it’d be funny at the time to see what my brain would come up as a reaction for that. But, to my surprise, the friend looked at me grimly, then glaring like some horror movie character. She locked her eyes with mine and suddenly I felt extremely uncomfortable, like that strange numbness when you get physically hurt in dreams. I started to walk away awkwardly, to the next period, as my goal for that was to break a window for fun in my dream, but as I went behind her for the door to science, the friend turned her head like an owl with the same expression. I was freaked out so I threw a book at them and ran away. Then when I got to my desk group in science, we talked about our supposed previous assignment, then a boy broke the conversation by saying “I know you’re dreaming.” In the same sing-song voice I used with the friend. All the other desk mates stopped talking and looked at me, With the same emotionless stare. I felt sudden control over the situation, and ran out of the classroom and outside the school, I tried to ignore it when I went down town near my school, then everybody on the street, about 200 people stopped their walking and window shopping, and just stared. At me. It was horrifying as they all fell limp to the ground at the same time, then then sky turned a strange color I can’t quite describe, sort of a purplish, brown tint. It started thundering, then the buildings started to fall and then I woke up. Never forgot it and I’m still really freaked out.

The moment i turn my back to see the balcony,i see someone watching me,like a thief or something, i never really can see his face,it's very dark but the moment i see him i freeze and i try to scream but it looks like my voice its gone and also my body paralizes. The same dream all over again for many years,i don't know what it means but i really wanted to share it with you guys. Stay safe,peace and love.
For six years I had a dream about this tree that would chase me down and crush me. One of the times I had this little sword in my hand I stabbed it. The tree balled up into a little knot of wood and disappeared. That was the last time I had the dream.

Jokes on you I'm watching this in my dream.
Yep!
The best vision I ever had while sleeping was seeing my 1980s Gobot's chest could be opened and contained a cavity in which things could be stashed - something I had never, ever known. I promptly awoke, took the toy off the shelf and used all the might my young self could muster to actually indeed prove that my dream was true. Still one of the weirdest things I've had happen in my 40 years. But I'm convinced a greater truth will eventually be handed to me in the same manner 🤓
I tend to lucid dream quite often. It is like waking up in a dream just like he said. The strangest part is that the "camera angle" shifts like a role playing game. Instead of looking through my eyes as in waking life it goes to a "camera 2" mode or third person perspective. So I'm watching myself, as myself, directing that scene while I kind of create a set. Like a movie.
I can move around the set, add characters, take them away, etc...I have noticed though that I only have a limited control over the other characters. They seem to have enough free will in the dreamscape until it gets weird and then I kind of silence them or leave. I can remember the dreams for days, months and years later with extreme clarity. Sometimes I can even go back to a particular "set" and revisit it with shocking detail.
One thing I can say is that quite often the shape of the dreams are disoriented or misshapen like the gravity is too heavy and it's hard to walk. Or the characters look at me like I don't belong there or I'm an alien for lack of a better term. Maybe intruder is better. It can be way more tiring than being awake. I'd prefer just black silence from time to time. This isn't something I ever intended to do. I'm 40 and this has been happening for a long time. I am left handed and I think certain parts of my brain may function differently than right handed folk but i'm no scientist...
Happy dreaming ya'll
This is a simplified and more realistic answer to what is lucid dreaming and how it works, from someone who actually experienced it.
1 When you will experience lucid dreaming for the first time, you will wake up in your dream, you will see the actual dream in which u are and wonder (wow, this is amazing), but everything will slowly disappear in front of your eyes, and slowly u will wake up and after that, u will shed a little tear for how amazing that experience was :)
2 Most likely for many of us, this will be very rare, and the maximum of what we will experience from lucid dreaming.
3 If you experience lucid dreaming you will find out that staying in the dream is a very difficult thing to do, not even mentioning controlling the dream. Is not "a dor" you open and walk-in like Alice in wonderland and do whatever you want, as long as u want... Everything happens fast in reality, and from the moment you realize you're dreaming till you wake up will probably pass no more than 10s.
4 While you'll be lucid in some of your dreams, (it takes a couple good dreams) you will probably even "involuntary" change the action of the dream
5 To voluntarily change the dream as you please (or something close to that) is a very tricky thing to do, bcs you can't use logical thinking to do it, you will wake up if you do that. The only way to change and shape the dream is through emotions and desire (at least in my case). You can't just imagine things and they will appear there, you must desire them. The dream will modify and change based upon your feelings and desires, you just desire and the brain will do the rest of it, he will modify everything to match your desires and you will simply find yourself in the middle of the action :)
Legit what I experience about twice or 3 times a week, I never considered it lucid dreaming though because of how people describe it. It's always That I either become aware it's a dream and wake up shortly after(sometimes I use this to my advantage with avoiding nightmares) or I realise it's a dream and can't willingly change something, but I go after what I want in the dream itself with usually something stupid keeping me from reaching it, but all while fully aware it's a dream
Probably that’s why I wake up as soon I as figure out that I’m in a dream. Thanks for the tip!
your whole comment is actually what it happen , long time ago i got the ability to be lucid in my dreams , i saw how the dream start to corrupt it self and slowly die , mean wile i can explore a bit of that universe .. several times i was to do this i think around 1-3 years until on day i got a dream where i found my selft in a white with yellow particles around space, i cant see my sleft and the only thing around was that , i was shock because i was used to control my dream that i literally ask where i am? the space it selft ask my question that i was dreaming , when that happen i ask again who are you ? - the voice silence for a moment then answer me that i know who that.. kinda weird way to answer like actually talking with other person .. thats what i actual think in the moment so trying to ignore the second answer i be bold so i ask a question that i dont really know the answer .... sadly i cant remember what i asked .. but when the voice return give me the answer ... an answer i never think before ... i was so surprised of it and when i hear the answer of it i literally feel a s electric feel in my head ... it is the only time i feel something that intense .. then the voice talk to me that was about time to start and seems i can see my own selff moving with the whole place .. my vie of my sleft from the back accompany the voice , i jsut can see how they move away , i cant follow them with no movement and all getting darker ... i dont know if i dream more of that and just forget but that was the beginning of a new type of dreams , dreams were so realistic that i cant tell i was dreaming , i wasnt me just had to live other person life.. that was the time of i start to forget everything of what i dream i jsut have few pieces with no story behind .... so i guess that thing that visit me just take me to the second lvl what i cant beat yet
First time I had a lucid dream, it was a nightmare, I kept waking up and being killed over and over again. So I googled and did some research and found out about lucid dreaming, although I never made an effort to have them, I had maybe 5-6 more after that in the span of a year or 2.
Imagining things was exactly what I did, I imagined places and people, and flew around just enjoying it all. I also found out your mind can quickly turn it into a nightmare, but after the research I just thought happy thoughts and focused on whatever thing I was exploring and it kept it at bay
Exactly dude! I couldn't agree more on using desires to control the dream. It's very hard to control the dream without breaking it.

@@martinus1976 a nod is as good as a wink
This makes so much sense about how I was able to have lucid dreams before! Back when I was in like 2nd grade or younger I had a lot of lucid dreams, and that was because of this one episode of gravity falls. They were in Stan’s head when he was asleep, and in it, they realized they can do whatever they want because they are in the human mind. This made me think about that one time as I was falling asleep, and when I started dreaming, I realized it was a dream. Then I remebered the gravity falls episode. Now 7-8 year old me didn’t think about doing it with a goddess, no I just flew. A lot.
I lucid dream most nights. What usually helps me is waking up because of pain from a car wreck and I go to sleep with headphones on so my mind doesn’t race. It’s like watching a movie to go to sleep but I have to have it on my entire night sleep or else I’ll wake up. I usually listen to Comics Explained Full Stories in UA-cam so my dreams are more super hero themed. But I am able to integrate those themes and powers into my lucid dreams. It’s mostly flight and having to concentrate harder to fly higher and farther. Or just to stay asleep so I can stay dream to have more fun. Love the channel. If you know of any studies where they take advanced lucid dreamers let me know. I’d love to try my abilities under a microscope.
“Once upon a time, I dreamt I was a butterfly, fluttering hither and thither, to all intents and purposes a butterfly. I was conscious only of my happiness as a butterfly, unaware that I was myself. Soon I awaked, and there I was, veritably myself again. Now I do not know whether I was then a man dreaming I was a butterfly, or whether I am now a butterfly, dreaming I am a man.” - Zhuangzi

As a physics student, there were times when I was trying very hard to solve some problem, I would have dreams where I was actually finding the solution, but things looked blurry and I couldn't figure out what I was doing in the dream after waking up.
After I saw "Waking life" ( a movie about lucid dreams) I started to practice trying to realize I was dreaming. I had a few times in the past realized it, so I thought I would start concentrating. I did get better.
I guess I lost interest. It was awhile ago. I remember that the movie said it was uncommon to be able to read in your dreams or to make out what time it was in your dreams. And I remember that was true for me. There were a few other odd things about dreams that they said, but I can't remember specifics. Damn!!!! I'm getting old!!! My memory is losing clarity to some degree!!!! C'est la vie!!!

@@lancegould 😳😳😳
Bruh if I can me too😂
One trick I learned early on is to read things in dreams twice - posters, headlines, TV screens - any words in a row. 99% of the time, if I'm dreaming, the words will be different the second time. If the words change, I know I'm dreaming, and can take over the dream.
I must remember that.
The best things I've found to check for lucidity are clocks. analog clocks. The time will change if you look away and then look back again. Also if start to wake up, try spinning yourself around.
theres loads of things u can do, for example, look at the time, try to push your finger through your palm of the other hand, hold your breath, count your fingers, etc. altho I don't understand this: my brain 100% knows that I have 4 fingers and 1 thumb, so why in a lucid/dream will my brain spawn me with 18 fingers and 4 thumbs?
How you can think on checking things, when I dream, I just go with the flow. Like watching a movie of myself
@@darksilo24 The whole idea of lucid dreaming is to take control!
You become the director, not just a passive watcher. It is much more fun.
I used to be very experienced at lucid dreaming, I read a ton of articles about them, and became extremely powerful, a god. One night I had a lucid dream that I couldn't wake up from, except it was a nightmare. The "antagonist" could counter my powers and I kept seeing horrible images... So yeah I stopped after that, but it was over a year ago now, and I'm ready to try again, and I can confirm that every technique he mentioned works.
How did u manage to wake up?
Wow pathetic, weak, and not strong enough
Every day there is a brief moment that I remember dreaming about the night before. It’s so weird but I can literally remember dreaming about that exact moment the night before.
For those wondering how to easily manipulate your environment while lucid: try closing your eyes in dream and visualizing where you want to be, or what you want to appear. It seems to always work for me, and is less of a shock to my brain when it happens, if I close my eyes before trying.
The only time I ever realized I was dreaming in a dream I woke up 5 mins later I was mad as fuck😭

"oh you just want to build up mana into your hand and think of a fireball in your hand rapidly expanding,
Then you have to keep compressing it into a fist sized fireball,
After that when you throw it, it will stop compressing and it will explode quickly, get it?"
He explained it well enough for me to understand, so i walked about 3 steps away from him and tried doing what he said.
I pulled up my arm, and felt the sensation of blood gathering in my right hand.
My blood feels as if it's being squeezed out, and a fire bullet the size of a fist appeared in front of my right hand.
“Whoa!!”
The moment I showed amazement, the fire bullet fell onto the floor, dampening it.
I lost concentration, so i tried again,
I had to imagine it, then repeat it over and over in my mind, then cast it in reality.
Send the blood flowing from my toes and top of my head into my right hand, using that feeling to gather power.
And then, have the feeling of firing it out from my palm.
Ok now i had a fireball expanding really quickly, it was starting to burn my palm.
"Dude you have to start compressing it now!" The other kid said to me.
I tried compressing it but it wasnt working, so i flinged my other hand up and tried compressing it with my left hand, as it was expanding in my right. Now it was time for me to try throwing it. And when i did it looked like a fireball the size of a baseball was just thrown but then about 15 feet away it did a huge explosion, causing everything in the area to get destroyed, including me and the kids.
Thats when i woke up. I was pretty sad waking up to reality after that happened. I told everyone in my school about it that day.
One time I realized that I was dreaming, and I kept saying to everyone in my dream that I was dreaming. But than god said that I wasn't dreaming, and that I actually died while sleeping, and then I started crying and I really starded to believe that I died and that it wasn't a dream.
That would be crazy.. kind of makes you think of people who actually do die in their sleep what it's like if it is all like a dream?
I think that was satan tormenting you in your dream, scary thought.
Whoa!
Oh my lord I get dreams like that too, just not scary ones like this though. A couple nights ago I played a puzzle adventure video game before bed and ended up having a really hyped up dream the next morning. Basically went through a bunch of different showrooms with various themes inside a large museum. Had a bunch of original characters follow me around and help me decipher dream symbols with me, as in "what does this actually represent?". My lucid dreams often involve me realizing it's a dream but just deciding to let things roll naturally, acting like an observer or taking the time to talk to my own characters about my negative feelings.

I picked up lucid dreaming at the age of 14 on my own without any prior knowledge of what it was due to nightmares. I kept having nightmares every night for a while to the point where I started saying "I am going to sleep, whatever happened it's just a dream" before I go to bed. Soon enough, as I was having a horrifying nightmare, I said it! " I am in dream right now because I remember going to bed! How did I get here? this must be a dream and I am going to wake up soon". Fortunate, I did wake up realizing that it was something incredible. Today, I am completely aware of myself being in a dream to the point where it feels like reality. Sometimes, I cannot wait to go to sleep just to be in that experience. However, the whole thing still freaks me out, it just unbelievable. I am now 27 but still not able to control and change my surroundings at will. I am assuming it takes lifetime of practice. Everyone should try it! it's a biological metaverse within you. You could reach the 4th or even the 5th dimension.
I have had alot of lucid dreams till the point that i can create anything from changing the environment to making blackholes in my hand(usually i destroy every thing when im having a nightmare or i turn my nightmares into allies). The weirdest dream i had was telling a random frog it was a dream and the frog told me that i wasnt supposed to tell him that, so the frog started to take human form and told me it was gona take control of my consciousness so it started a battle of who was in control of the dream changing stuff until i managed to wake me up.
So when I was in middle school I actually achieved lucid dreaming, but then I questioned myself. Am I actually realizing that I am in a dream or am I dreaming that I believe I realize I was dreaming.
Can you tell me how to achieve lucid dreaming plz I want to control my dreams
That has happened to me too 😅
i once used a lucid dream to test a waking technique for nightmares. I open my eyes extremely wide in a dream, and thus open my eyes irl
thats deep

So I had a bit of a head start cause I always remember my dreams when wake up.
What you want to do is keep a note or sketch book next to your bed. When you wake up write down or draw out your dream with as much detail as possible. This will supposedly strengthen your dream memory.
Eventually you should be able to tell it's a dream.
Like I said I wasn't sure if I really realize I was dreaming.
Im gonna control my dreams tonight.
Wakes up: damn it
Should be writing in your dream journal instead of saying dammit :) keep trying and it is possible
You can wake up at different points throught the night and keep trying it. Just set an alarm.
@@EddieCurtis sure but what if you've nothing to write? I can't even reliably dream let alone have any amount of control within them
@@the_hanged_clown just make sure to remember details from your dreams (like things that are clearly off when you're awake), that'll at least give you a foothold into your dreams when you notice it in a later dream. For me one of the dead giveaways to become aware/lucid in a dream is the near complete lack of periferal vision. Started experimenting with lucid dreaming when i was six or seven as my parents always sent me to bed way too early back then (they just wanted some quiet time) and hence i got super bored and started thinking up games/experiments to pass the time laying in bed. One of my best methods to go straight from being awake to entering a lucid dream state was by first consciously relaxing every tense muscle and then laying absolutely still (may take a few nights to master, took me three) and once relaxed start counting up from one to two etc. the last thing (counting) will keep your mind awake and the first thing (relaxing) will allow your body to 'fall asleep'. However do not stress over anything like missing numbers or losing your count, just continue and relax, or your heartbeat going up and added adrenaline will make it much harder for your body to fall asleep. When i got both right, it felt like i was getting lighter and lighter, until i felt like i was weightless in my bed. Then i assumed i had entered lucid dream state, as i slowly floated up to above my blanket. Silently pulled myself around the house (still weigtless/levitating) but went back to my bedroom eventually as it became boring and cumbersome (having to pull yourself around turns out not to be nearly as effective as being able to walk around thanks to human-suited designs, muscles and gravity) where i sunk back into myself and entered a deeper stage of sleep.
@plant whisperer I think you misunderstand, I don't have a problem getting to sleep, I've no memory of dreams upon waking.
In Most of my dreams I know I'm dreaming but as soon I know something good is about to happen or something I want there are always obstacles that never let me get the pleasures I want in my dreams. While I'm in my dreaming state I'm aware of the obstacles barriers that don't let me get the pleasure I want, I try really hard to get through the obstacles, but I can't never make it. I know I'm going to wake up while dreaming, I never get the pleasures I want and I realise the dream is going to end and I'm going to wake up. After waking up I can only remember the dream for 15 minutes and then forget about it, but sometimes I remember after some hours I had a dream but can only remember some parts of the dream and sometimes I start to remember my dream in parts starting from the last part and going to the parts before that and after some hours the memory of the dreams I had fade way. I have only logged one dream on my phone within the 15 minutes after waking up from a dream.
When I was a teenager I injured my shoulder and completely torn my rotator cuff. 100%, so there was nothing holding my ar. To my body but my my muscle. Therefore , if I 100% fell asleep mt shoulder would dislocate, I either had to remain somewhat conscious or wedge myself in a way that something, like a wall kept my shoulder in. I also was into psych and just starting out studying it. So, I took advantage of this and routinely lucid dreamed. That was 35 years ago and I have been doing it since most nights. The benefits are incredible!
I use to practice lucid dreaming years ago, and in one of them, my grandma appeared (she died 3~4 month before the lucid dream, and I couldnt say anything to her), well... In the dream we hug and I woke up feeling joy and happyness.
I literally had the same exact thing happen! 3-4 months after my grandma passed! She looked younger and wasn't wearing her glasses. She said in a calm voice "I don't have much time sweetheart." And then she gave me a hug! When I woke up I could still feel her in my arms, and then she turned into air. It was the happiest feeling of overwhelming joy! Can't believe someone else had the exact dream I did! Awesome!
Thats beautiful, thank you both for sharing. I lost my mom to cancer and I've been thru lots of emotions, anger, frustration, pain,sadness. I wasn't sure if I was ready to open myself up to seeing her in my dreams. Took awhile but you guys really make me think I'm OK enough to see her again. Thank you
were you a teenager or even younger ?
@@sandro6411 i was 26 (6 years ago, more or less)
Here's my experience with lucid dreams...
When I was 14 my older brother passed away after a car bad accident. For the next year or so I started to experience sleep paralysis most nights (likely due to the traumatic event).
At first these episodes were horrific but as time went on I developed a system to wake up my body by focusing on moving one finger. Once I could move that finger I could shake myself awake.
After learning how wake my body out of sleep paralysis I was no longer afraid of it.
So what I started doing during the mentally conscious, but physically paralyzed, state is NOT wake my body up and intentionally stay in limbo.
If I stayed in this state I would begin to lucidly dream.
These dreams were the most amazing experiences I have ever had.
Unfortunately, my sleep paralysis faded away and took my ability to have lucid dreams with it.
I taught myself to have lucid dreams when I was a kid. I used to have daily nightmares and I thought to myself if I can remember I am in a dream, then I won’t be scared. So I kept telling myself once I get in bed that tonight I’m going to remember I am in a dream.
So pretty much deployed that tip that was mentioned in the video and it worked.
I still remember the first dream that I was lucid in. It was a nightmare and I turned it into a dream.
I still have lucid dreams regularly. However, I don’t have that kind of control of everything. I cannot fully change things in my dreams.
True I've been doing it since I was a kid, controlling my dreams, even if I had a nightmare I can change my self to a different character like super strength, flight etc... that can deal with my nightmares. For me it's an alternate world where I can made anything possible, a creator of my dream world, an escape to reality, but when I'm awake, I need to face my reality. I've also experience having a very long dream like been in the dream world for a week but after awoken from my sleep, I notice that it's just an half an hour time has passed when I look at the clock, like in my dream the concept of time is different, it can be a week, a month in the dream world but it only takes an hour of my sleep, that's why I really enjoyed sleeping and dreaming
“Try waking up 5-6 hours after bedtime.”
Wait, you guys get THAT much sleep?
Really, if I set an alarm for 6 hours after bedtime, it would be waking my wife an hour after I was already in the shop.
Rarely, early death for us :(
Wait, you guys get to sleep?
I mean during pandemic, yeah i can sleep for days
@bobby ruest 10 weeks a year. That's not enough to support someone still living with their parents. What are you getting at? What was the point of this post? He said a normal person can't get anywhere near that amount of sleep and you "gloat" with either "I'm disabled and I'm better than you" or "I'm a lazy fuck and i think I'm better than you"
My main issue has always been that as soon as I realize I'm dreaming, I wake up. It's incredibly frustrating.
same :/
@@nodrogdivad Rub your hands together once you realize you are dreaming and start to wake up. It stabilizes you in your dream.
@@faffrd stupid question but how? LOL
@@dannychea9897 No question is stupid. You got to train yourself to remember to do this in your dreams. Lucid dreaming takes some training. Good luck!
@@faffrd how many times have you tried?! Haha
I have lucid dreams very often. Sometimes 2 nights in a row. The more I started to have them the longer I am able to be aware in my dreams increased. The reason people wake up quickly when they realize they are dreaming is because they get too excited. I would wake up quickly in my early lucid dream days or just forget I was dreaming and go back to a normal dream. When you learn to control your excitement then you can start controlling your dream. At first the only way for me to change my environment in my dreams was by finding a door and opening it and walking into the environment I want and if I wanted people to appear I would do the same thing. Now I have moments where I can just make things happen without the doors. I’ve traveled to different countries and went into space once to see planets. Iv’e flown a bunch of times. The trick I found to be useful for me is to just believe what you want to happen and it will happen. Don’t bother telling people you’re dreaming lol I was at work in a dream when I realized the sky was strangely close and the stars were everywhere. I told my co-worker hey I’m dreaming, you’re part of my dream, you don’t really exist rt now. His reaction was straight fear and his whole existence questioned. I felt bad about that. I’ll never forget the fear on his face.
I had to start forcing myself to not control my dreams about 15 years ago. It was causing me to not function properly (I had several other more significant issues at the time. So this was just adding to them). I really needed to get the best sleep possible at the time and I wasn't getting that when I would be too busy living my Hugh Hefner/Superman lifestyle I had grown accustomed to while sleeping. Every once in a while I will allow myself to live it up in dream land but only if I have absolutely nothing important to do the next day. That's extremely rare. I'm constantly catching myself in my dreams, telling myself to let it just play out and not go flying around. Flying is my second favorite thing to do in a dream. 😜
