I have been able to become lucid a few times.

However, often everything seems slow and sluggish almost like I am underwater. I am sometimes unable to see clearly or even look up. When I am able to do these things I am often stuck inside a small room trying to get out.

Contrary to other people's lucids I don't feel strong emotions, see vivid colours etc.. Like many people starting out, I want to have the "flying" experience and feel free, full of joy and excitement.

I know about some techniques like rubbing hands, spinning, shouting etc.. I am not really asking for that kind of advice.

What I want to know is, can anyone relate to my problem and were you able to overcome it. If so, how?

Any other suggestions are welcome.

Thanks

JASE.
