Ok, so I've been studying lucid dreams since I was 19 yrs old. Not a super long time but long enough to get a decent understanding of how wonderful they can be. I've been able to control my dreams on and off now for about 2 years. It's never really stable, but I've had some amazing experiences as a result. However, in the past 2 months, whenever I do have a lucid dream, its all negative, frightening visions of a military future of the US. Geez, I sound crazy. I am also a big fan of politics. By fan I mean, I choose to understand what is going so very wrong in this country. Anyhow, in these dreams very real details both that the government is working on and things we are starting to implement are being used. (The microchip, the national identification card, martial law) These dreams are very real, very scary, and although I can control myself, my reactions and what not, the dream itself is out of my control. These are the most real things to me. I wake up in a panic and terrified for almost the whole day from the images I saw while sleeping. Now, I don't have a history of depression, psychotic behavior, nothing like that. I am simply a rational person that stumbled on Lucid Dreaming as a means to expand my life's experiences. I am desperate at this point for answers. I know I sound like I belong in the loony bin and I'd appreciate as little chastising as we can afford. But if anyone here has an answer I would greatly appreciate it... if not, please don't be judgmental, because unfortunately, I think it sounds crazy too, its very real to me.
