Lovelyish

Probably feel that real life isn’t enough anymore.

I’d put myself into the Star Trek universe.

I would go into the world of my book so that I can see my characters and how they interact with one another so that I could incorporate that into future chapters.

Or I’d dream up some Jennifer Love Hewitt dreams….

I don’t need a lucid dreaming mask, I can lucid dream all by myself.  It’s how I fall asleep every night.

Sleep paralysis is when your body is asleep and your brain isn’t, and so you can hear everything going on around you but you cannot move.  It is terrifying and I suppose anyone could then begin to imagine things.

Sleep paralysis SUCKS. It’s a terrifying experience, and it’s taken me years to calm down when it happens and know it’s not true.

I lucid dream about once a week and honestly it’s kind of boring. Sleep paralysis usually only happens to me if I wake up and then fall asleep again soon after. It’s very unpleasant. 

I’ve had sleep paralysis and the first time I experienced it was very terrifying. Now all i do is either go with it and stop fighting it or I just scrunch up my nose at least three times to get rid of it.  

i used to lucid dream when I was younger. but now anymore = (

I can lucid dream sometimes, but it’s rare.  Usually when I figure out I’m dreaming, the first thing I do is start flying haha.  

I’m a writer, so if I could legitimately control my dreams, I would dream out my novels.  It would be like watching a movie of my characters and I could see what works and what doesn’t.  That would be pretty awesome, actually.  
I would also make up stories starring myself, probably, once it got boring to just watch my characters all the time.

Wow, I can’t lucid dream so this might be worth trying if it wasn’t that expensive. I feel that I’m more creative when I’m *not* controlling the dream so I don’t know if lucid dreaming would be much fun for me anyway..

Sounds a little scary, yet intriguing! 

dream sexy dreams about guys i wanna do. and like about hogwarts.

I can never  control a dream, but whenever I am dreaming and I know it’s a dream, it’s usually when I’m being chased or lost and I keep telling myself to wake up-which is then followed by the feeling of sleep paralysis. It’s pretty freaky.
If I could lucid dream, I would want to fly. That would be awesome.

i do lucid dream, and it’s only to save myself from someone attacking me -_- so it sucks

sleep paralysis is no bueno.

I have them now and then i usually end up flying or doing something i love.  It takes a really weird dream for me to realize im dreaming, its hard to keep myself in that dream state and not wake up.  I have been able to wake up and go to sleep the next night and continue a dream, and even go back and replay or change a part of a dream.  Sometimes i will realize im dreaming but just let it go its own route since its hard work to gain control and stay in control.  I frequently have nightmares also some are repetitive some random.  I actually woke up screamin about a week ago out of a nightmare and woke up my baby.  I used to sleep walk and talk in my sleep a lot as a kid.  I got up and walked out of my grandmas house in the middle of winter bare foot in just a night gown i was probably 6 years old i didnt remember anything but i heard all about it the next day, i thought they were crazy.  My mom said i used to walk in their bedroom and just stand there for a minute then go back to bed, or walk up and down the hallway a couple times.

I’ve been able to lucid dream since I was a pre-teen.  I usually end up putting a more… coherent twist on my dreams than what they are when I’m not lucid dreaming.

I used to have episodes of sleep paralysis all the time.  It would always seem like such a fight to get my mind and body to a point where I could finally wake up and move.  Or, I would feel like I had just woken up only to realize I was still asleep and had to wake up again and again and again because I couldn’t move. Eventually, what would help me was an external stimulus – a bird outside my window, my phone, a passing car – to finally set something off enough for me to really wake up and move again.  Doesn’t happen to me anymore since I put myself on a regular sleeping schedule.

You can lucid dream for free, it just takes practice if you are not a natural at it. Just look up tips on line.

i naturally lucid dream…. it gets borring so I usually try NOT to

did they suggest you can change the controls of your mask by putting it up to your monitor and having it change for you? …can you DO that? O.o 

or am I just forgetting about how light signals can work?

anyway, i’ve been lucid dreaming since i was little. i heard it first from Blues Clues and then practiced. seriously. i used to have tons of nightmares until i watched that episode of Blues Clues. thank you, television. usually i’m too curious about the dream i’m already having to change anything on my own, but i stopped having nightmares and i almost always remember my dream in the morning because i knew i was dreaming during it.

I LOVE lucid dreaming!! =D I had my first one when I was in first grade and have been practicing ever since. If I think about it a lot, I can have multiple lucid dreams per week, and can control them for up to 30 minutes or so. I am very experienced but don’t start to think that with these you will be able to just dream whatever you want. Even when I’m lucid I can’t really control the atmosphere of my dreams just what I do and how I react to things. It definitely is a blast though. My favorite things to do are run, climb, jump of buildings for the falling sensation, eat because I can actually taste, and sex If these things actually work I’m sure people will love them if you have a good imagination =]

I would just not have nightmares every night like I do, don’t care what I dream about

It’s called drinking absinthe.

I remember most all of my dreams every single night. Most of the time even multiple dreams. I have lucid dreams only sometimes & it’s awesome when it happens. I also “suffer” from sleep paralysis. When you have it often enough (a couple of times a month if any for me) you learn to deal with it. But yes, the feeling of having no control over your entire body & feeling paralyzed is just oddly, extremely frightening. I can wait for the rest of my brain to wake up, usually. But sometime especially when you hallucinate it can just be the scariest thing. Glad it doesn’t happen to me as often as it used to.

I can do it by myself too. The only good things I got out of spending hours in bed while being depressed.
It’s atually quite awesome sometimes, because being in that state of awakeness is like the most extreme stage of creativity.
However, I prefer “actual” dreams…they somehow feel more real to me.

I would totally try that. I enjoy sexy dreams, if you know what I mean. I also like having super powers, like flying or being invisible. My favorite though is when I dream about people I love that have died and we have beautiful happy conversations.

I’ve tried lucid dreaming (mask free) to no avail. If I could gain full control of my dreams, I’d probably try a threesome with my husband and some dream-created goth chick. haha
I’ve had where I’m trying to wake up screaming but my body won’t move and all I can manage to do is whimper. (Luckily my husband wakes me up when this happens.)

I used to lucid dream all the time as a child. I still rarely do it when I realise I’m dreaming but nothing exciting really happens, I just sit watching my dream unfold and think how cool it is.

Lucid dreams are pretty fun. I used to have them very often when I was younger and able to sleep more (damn you insomnia!). For some reason, I often have the exact same dream many times over the years, and that was the easiest way for me to realize that I was dreaming, since I recognized everything. Once you realize it’s a dream, cha-ching! I start changing things up and get to fly and be awesome. Sometimes my dreams literally get mixed up with reality.

Example: I was dreaming about my sister walking into my room and standing at the foot of my bed telling me to wake up. Despite the fact that I could see her in my mind’s eye, I kept trying to open my eyes, and when I did, she’d disappear. I didn’t know I was dreaming and didn’t realize that I was opening my real eyes so I was very confused as to why she kept disappearing and why my eyelids felt so darn heavy.

Sleep paralysis is definitely scary. Many times I’ll “see” a ghost or something floating above me as I lay unable to move, but recently I see nothing and instantly realize that I’m experiencing sleep paralysis. Knowing that it’s sleep paralysis while you’re stuck in it doesn’t stop you from feeling that cold, intense fear of being unable to move, but it does help a tiiiiny bit.

Anyway, not sure if those masks will ever work, but I do hope everyone gets to experience lucid dreams
