Addicted to lucid dreaming?
So i started lucid dreaming about 6 years ago when i was around 16 years old.
I always had terrible night terrors and i heard of lucid dreaming as a way to stop it, which it did. Funny thing is I have stopped doing lucid dreaming? I LOVED the feeling of being happy when waking up, but just didn't bother anymore? Don't know why, don't care, i no longer have night terrors and when I do, i can easily see it and know that i am dreaming.
Well my best female friend has been getting really bad dreams and night terrors. I told her of lucid dreaming.
She is a very stuburn person. She says at first that it would be too hard, that its not worth it, then she brought up the point she would want to "dream all the time and never be awake" I couldn't point out the reason this never happens to me, heck i dont even lucid dream anymore! I told her, you only get the good feeling AFTER you wakeup. You also WILL wake up sooner or later, you body can't sleep more than 24hours straight, i think the world record is like 36 hours without drugs or brain damage...
But she insists she would be addicted to it.
Has anyone ever wasted their life away trying to have lucid dreams and sleep all day?
Is there any real reason NOT to have lucid dreams?
