Thread: Woah woah woah wait...Is anyone having LD's anymore?

It's probably from all the stress caused by the holiday season.

I don't know if it's a dry spell exactly. I notice that in my dreams more often I simply have all lucid abilities, but am following the dream. Sort of as if I am always lucid know to a very great extent. Hard to explain it.

I noticed this over a month ago (http://www.dreamviews.com/community/...ad.php?t=68745) although if it's been that long then who knows, maybe no one is dreaming I did manage to get over my month-long dryspell in the past few days, though.

Well I had like, a 2 second LD last night, so I guess that counts. I became Lucid and then got woken up by my dog.
there goes my spell, I guess >.<

havent had one for months

Dare I say it? I think the natural that I am, may sadly be entering a dryspell.... this is very saddening indeed.

dryspell? people just simply need to try harder, i sure havent. i, gonna start right now hopefully it will pull me outa this. honestly how many of you guys have been trying there hardest?

I do the same thing! I feel like I typically KNOW it's a dream, but most of the time I am pulled along by the narrative, rather than making truly conscious decisions and my dreamself does not control the dream.

Example: in a nightmare where a dog was trying to bite me, I tried to fly upwards to get away (my flying is more like a jump-to-float) I am thinking, "damn this dog, it can jump really high, but I should be able to fly higher and get away. F-ing dream!! What good is flying if my fear of getting bit doesn't let me get away!" I knew it was a dream, and that I was worried this flying business wouldn't work, and I knew that my fear was exactly why it didn't.

When I am just being pulled along and reacting to things according to the "reality" construct of the dream, I don't feel like it's lucid, whether or not I know I'm in a dream. The dream above could have been lucid if I had thought, "Hold up! This is stupid, I don't want to dream about this dog anymore."
