Thread: Alarm Clock

I always find myself setting my alarm clock before I goto bed. Resulting in alot of either false awakenings with my alarm clock or dreams with my alarm. I haven't tried this yet but I it's a suggestion.

If you are constantly setting you alarm clock before bed at night this might work for you.

Simply do a reality check everytime you see or think of your alarm clock. The most common thing for me is, I awake (in a dream) because I forgot to set it and I reset it then go back to bed. If I had simply done a RT I would have become lucid. Just a suggestion..... feedback?

Good suggestion for those who have repeated dreams of doing some action. Get into the habit of always doing a reality check when you do it in waking life, then you'll probably soon find yourself asking the same question in your dream.

I do set my alarm clock every night, but have never dreamed about it.

On the topic of alarm clocks, I always wake up 10 minutes before my alarm clock is supposed to go off. Even if I've gotten 6 hours sleep, 8, or 10! It's probably because I hat the buzzing sound so much. I just turn off the timer and spend that extra 10 minutes writting down my dreams for that night.

Sometimes I put my alarm clock to go after 5 hours put then I change the minute but don't look at what minute it is. I don't know why, im weird. Maybe that will work for you.

what is a livid dream?
and what is a reality check?

Its vivid dream. Thats like a awesome dream where lots of diffrent stuff hapens.

Reality Check is something you do to see if you dreaming. Ex: Holding you nose and seeing if you can still breathe.

thanks man!

Don't play with him.... Read his name backwards... (you only get that if you play SC)

Hey, this guy's from Ottawa! Sorry, just had to point it out.

I don't have false awakenings much, and the ones I remember I don't recall an alarm... I do set an alarm every night, but I think I usually wake up just before it anyways...

are you an ontarian too?

Yessiree! I'm in Waterloo right now, but I have a brother in Carleton!
