Thread: Right, I think it's time to admit that I need some help with dream control!

For a long time, there were certain things I could not do while lucid dreaming. In my case, wooden manikins would be operating machines constructed mainly of gauges and pipes, seemingly integrated into the environment. No matter how I tried, the manikins could not be locked up, burned, broken or blasted away. I could remove and destroy the machines, but they would always be rebuilt within a few minutes in a random location when the manikins saw that I had destroyed them. I only managed to stop them when I willed them into a different place entirely - someplace far away from where I go when I dream. I still sometimes see them, but only when I 'ask' for them. For me, trial and error seemed to work best. I had 'relocate' them rather that kill them. A part of me still thinks that they are still building, wherever I put them.

Try everything! Many people have limits in their dreams; if there were no limits, nothing could exist properly. I could not destroy manikins, but I could relocate them out of the way. My limit was one on my destructive capabilities. Try to work around your limitations, too.
