Hi, This is becoming quite frustrating. I have had quite a few Vivid dreams lately, and have been trying to become lucid. My problem is that the people in my dreams tell me with such confidence that i am not dreaming that they actually convince me, no matter how much i am SURE that I AM dreaming. I am currently in Ireland visiting family, so the other night I had a dream about some friends that i had back in college (I live in the states) and at one point, i said, "Wait! Im dreaming, because I can not be here, I'm in Ireland!" and the people in my dreams told me with such confidence that i WAS NOT dreaming that i had lost the faintest bit of lucidity. Now similar things have happened since and i am getting quite frustrated, it isn't till I awake that i am sure that i was dreaming. Does anyone have any suggestions on how to overcome this? Thanks
