ahhh.. it was robert monroe who spend the century in a dream..
Well, when i was at my peak in skill, i would stay in LDs for weeks.. a few even months.. and an epic one that lasted over a year. I've written about it on the forums elsewhere.. i think i called it The City.. truly amazing.. and I wish i could visit there again, i grew really attached to the place.
To tell you the truth.. your memory is compressed sometimes by it.. but if you are VERY good at recalling.. you can recall every moment. You don't really feel jetlagged, yet there is a sense of forgetting what is real for about an hour.. and many times you will get very emotional. I cried once... when i relized my "friends" i knew for so long werent existant anymore.
These time compressed dreams, they play out differently then traditional LD's.. you ARE aware you are asleep, you lose all attachment to your sleeping body though, I noted the realism on these is by far among the best. While in regular LDs, you seem to make things less complex at times.. (look at electronics if you don't believe me), in these compressed LDs, everything is VERY real and very detailed.
There is usually not alot of dream control.. like you control yourself, and you might have some limited abilities, but it appears the longer these dreams last, the more they appear like real life. I mean.. i was not normal by any means.. i am taller, slimmer, and more muscular in my dreams, with a very tired looking face, a sharp gaze that are NOT my eyes, almost always sunglasses and black clothing (stuff like capes).. i carry either a swordcane, a gunblade, a gun, or just a sword... always, unless i am transformed into a falcon, in which case i'm a bird.
I've not been able to get a compessed LD since i relearned howto LD.... i'm gonna point my finger at about a month before i can pull it off, unless i master meditating.
