Help im in Lucid jail
Last Night I went lucid after a year away from lucid dreaming and had a very weird experience. Long story short I become lucid in the same room I went to sleep in and im in the exact same spot. I get up but
its like gravity is ten times heavier and its like i am walking through syrup. I yell out clarity now and (lock me in this dream), and try spinning to stabilize it more. but the gravity feeling did not go away. I try to
leave the room by flying throw the ceiling but the minute I did I was in a black void the poop back in the room again ,on the floor exactly were I woke up the first time. I check my finger and im still lucid. I try
to walk through the door and the same thing happens again. so I try another approach, I close my eyes and wait for another dream scene to form but the same room just comes back.
so what im asking is, has anyone had similar problems and what do you do to fix it. I've had similar problem in the past on stabilizing and I can never get it to get vivid.
I have tried every stabilizing technique I could find on here.
so please if anyone has some new advice please give me feed back
p.s is this an OBE I never had one before a lot of my lucid start off were I went to sleep
and im pretty sure yelling lock me in this dream is not the issue
-
Let me get this straight - you demanded to be locked in the dream and then you were angry that it worked… ? :alien:
-
I meant lock me in like don't wake me up
let me stay in the dream
but I was having trouble getting out the room before I ever said it
I just learn to say it as a stabilizing technique

First, if this was your first lucid dream in a long time, then I wouldn't worry too much about a less-than-perfect experience. If you're out of practice, then you're bound to have some issues getting back into it.
Second, if you're stuck in an undesirable situation, I think the best solution is to take a positive approach. Thing about what you do want, not what you don't want. Focusing your attention of what you don't like and trying to escape will only make it worse. This is because your mind will create more of whatever you set your attention to. Instead, think of where you want to go and what you want to do and visualized that. That's contrary to your natural instinct, but it's the adjustment you need to make to overcome the trap. This is something you can rehearse in daydreaming. Recall the dream and "rewrite" the script the way you want it to happen, using positive actions and feelings.

It sounds to me rather like an OBE, than like a lucid dream - based on the descriptions people tend to give about these two types of experience.
Next time, try to find your own sleeping body. If you can actually see yourself sleeping, then it fits the OBE-description really well.
As for leaving the room:
- You could try to ask for help in leaving the room.
- You could specify to the dream/astral plane/wherever you are, that you wish to be taken to [specific place/specific person]
- If it is a dream, you could expect with all of your intention, that the door will open to [specific place/specific person]
It has been my experience that expectation rules - for better or worse.

Hmmm... Just do your dream goals in the room, part of being creative is working well with minimal resources.

Sorry but lol
I have had that problem far too much for my liking, but not really that hard to overtake.
The heaviness you feel is most likely because your dream body is mimicking your waking body in SP, so as to prevent movement. In this case I generally either create a "link" entity between these two and destroy it/leave it or simply take focus away from my body.
Anyway, generally I would make a blanket the "link" and simply by taking it off the feeling would go away.
The othe way is to focus on your dream body and slowly start to move it, like start with your thumb and then slowly start to move your feet/leg/rest of the body.
Also, as Sensei said be creative and work with your current location. Make the room bigger, alter its space, make a micro-world within the room so that you don't leave it, etc...

Expect it to stop being a little shit and it will. Expectation is key to everything. My classic one is, if i want an RPG, i'll expect it to be in my arms. Or maybe i'll expect it to be behind a door/ behind me. The pro's can just make anything happen right away though.
