This has happend to me also. Reality checks do happen by themselves alot now in my dreams. |

Well, I don't. I've been reading a lot about dream signs and reality checks, but in all three my LDs so far (including the one I had as a child), when I realize I'm dreaming, it doesn't seem like there's a concrete reason, like a failed reality check. I seem to "just know" (sometimes in a dream I know something about the environment that nobody told me, I think it's rather common). Then I (automatically) exclaim "This is just a dream" or "This is my world" or something like that. |

I haven't had an LD yet where it was triggered by a RC. They've been through WBTB techniques where I just immediately know it's a dream or sometimes I just realize it's a dream for no reason. |

It's like this to me too, unless there's something weird going on with my eyes. It's just something odd. For example once, I was picking mushrooms, there was this one tiny mushroom, apart from the other and looking at it, I realised I was dreaming... |

Lucid dreams: 12 (woke up too early on each)
the 3 times i have become lucid i have woken up as soon as i said, "im dreaming" |
|
The past couple Ld's iv had have been caused by seeing the same person in two different locations at once, and knowing it's not twins. I wonder if anyone else has had this... |

"100% success you bitch"
It has only happened to me once... It didn't feel like there was a concrete reason at the time, but looking back I realise it was the presence of fictional characters that must have tipped me off. In the dream it felt like I was aware from when I appared in the room, but that's just because I remember it really well. |
|
In my two LDs (only...) I became aware with no RCs, nor clues. |
|
well, both times I've became lucid is because of a hot girl and I wanted to do stuff to her. one went like this. I got naughty and said "wait, theres so many people around. oh its just a movie. will she feel this on the set? Directors gunna be pist. oh wait, movies made, dumbass. hmmm this isnt right. Im dreaming" then i did a reality check and she dissapeard so the first thing i did was try to grow my own boobs to fondel |
|
I would say that the majority of my LDs have happened because I've just suddenly recognized the "feeling" of being in a dream -- then I'll usually do a RC to confirm it, but by that time I already know that I'm dreaming. Isn't this basically DILD? Or am I misunderstanding the term? |

it's funny i woke up from a LD like this this morning and wanted to start a thread about it. looks like you beat me to it. i get these a lot. i just somehow know that i'm dreaming, even though nothing out of the ordinary has really happened. then i do a reality check to further prove it. it's weird, when looking back on the dream i try to think of what made me lucid and can't think of anything. it makes me wonder sometimes whether i'm lucid dreaming, or just dreaming that i'm lucid dreaming. |

Twice in my dreams today I said to myself "I'm dreaming", the first time the dream faded to black and went into another scenario, the second time I said it again and it started fading to black, I closed myself and thought "I must calm down", but woke up. |

it's true that they may have been created to "fill books", but you cannot deny that reality checks are useful to those looking for lucidity. i wouldn't necessarily say that people are being screwed with. though it is pretty interesting how most lucid dreams come from simply knowing that you're dreaming. this really shows that reality checks may not be a necessary method. it seems that reality checks are mostly used to simply confirm the idea that you're in a dream. |

i really dont know, its been strange for me |
