Hello, I'm IceMan, but everyone calls me Josh, and I'm from Britain, and I was thinking that, if having Asperger's can affect your everyday life (for those who know about it or have it, which I do) can it affect your dreams? |

If you have to quote me on anything, quote me as saying,
"It is impossible to make anything foolproof as fools are so ingenious..."
I don't know, you would think that the vividness of it would be higher sense people with aspergers like me and you have better visualization skills then the rest. |

I wanna be the very best
Like no one ever was
To lucid dream is my real test
To control them is my cause
well, usually I will remember my dreams the moment I wake up, and I'll forget them about 10 minutes later. I also had VERY realistic dreams about falling, which can be really freaky. Thankfully I wake up before I land. |

I can feel the wind passing thorugh my legs, and when I wake up, I always feel as though I have just fallen a few inches above my bed and have landed on the moment of waking, if that makes any sense. |

Sorry if this is off-topic here, i only feel like recommending everyone to read this novel: The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time by Mark Haddon. It's about a brilliant, young boy with Asperger's. Beautiful and intense. |

Man, I was gonna post on aspergers and dreaming just yesterday. |
|
well, as you mention it, I had a dream last night with this weird old-style computer animated person talking to me (as in his face was made up of loads of squares). I when he faced me, he looked like Abraham Lincoln, which makes me thing, hey, isn't he dead! However, before I go lucid he turns around and the back of his head looks like the back of someone I recognises head, and so I do not retain awareness. |

I was just about to start a new thread on Asperger's and Lucid Dreaming when the helpful interface pointed out this one, so while it's really rather old (over 8 years!) I thought it'd be more fun to resurrect an old thread than start a new one! |

I have something similar to AS and I'm with you on the faceless part. I have a very hard time looking at people in the eyes, and most of my DC doesn't have very defined facial features until I'm up close. I tend to use it to call the people I want in my lucid! And the obsessive part. Dear god. I read up so much about lucid dreaming when I found out about it, it's not even funny :p I never wondered if it can interact with lucid dreaming, but I will be on the lookout now, that's a very interesting idea. |
