Thread: Reality checks are only used at more "opposite" ends of the lucidity spectrum?

Yeah; I agree, but I don't really "choose" not to do them; I just don't.

I'm finding this incredibly frustrating, but I can't seem to really put into words what occurs during these dreams. It's like I know I'm dreaming, and have a certain type of mental clarity, but lack another type; it's the voice in the back of my mind that says "I might not be dreaming".

I'm not the only one?



I still count most of the semi-lucids I have as, well, LDs, because the reality checks may only be ignored due to a lack of logic or something else. As long as I don't act totally stupid and am close to being non-lucid.
