      Can't process the stress in my dreams.

      Every lucid I have been having ( about 3 times a week ) it's completely stressful and I can't accomplish anything. I think the last peaceful lucid dream of mine was back in march. I've had about two fun ones where I was placed in a situation and I could fight my way out but now it's just no fun anymore. I'm under enormous amounts of stress whenever I become lucid and even in WILDS. I don't have any amount of control anymore, it's gradually gotten worse until it completely disappeared. They also become darker and darker.. They used to be bright and sunny, then blue, purpleish and now black.

      Routine lucid dream for me.

      I start in my house, my house is dimly lit and it's night time. Whenever I become lucid I stop stabilize and yady yady ya. Then things become crazy and I can't stop it. For example the other night I was lucid and there was cars crashing into houses. I knew I was dreaming so I stopped, relaxed and assured myself that nothing will happen.It did nothing, then a car comes flying into my house and destroys it. I lose all lucidity.


      Every dream I try to make it light out and I can only get the sky to flash a couple colors and I wake up. It's like I'm just a normal person that can't do anything besides what my real life allows me to do. ( I do know it's hard for my mind to create something from scratch but I used to have long lucids with infinite amounts of control.) I've done everything from auto affirmations before bed, relaxation in the dream, and what used to work without fail, verbal commands. I took about a three week break and started again. When these dreams happen I don't let them phase my and go to sleep thinking I will have a great lucid dream, today it's just bugging me.


      I just want it to be the good old days again Any ideas?

      I used to have similar problems in lucid dreams where I would see the ocean. I would almost always launch straight into a panic attack and sometimes lose lucidity.

      The advice I was given, and what worked for me was to sit down and recall a time or place where I have felt safe and loved. When I remembered those feelings, recalled them, and then projected them outward, I was able to feel peaceful. I was also able to transform dream monsters into harmless things like piglets much more easily than I ever did before. I hope that this may be able to help you. I think it's worth a try.

      Thanks Naiya, I'll give that a shot. I'll report in when I have my next lucid.

      Hey it worked, it of course the stressful part played out ( I was being chased by skeletons) but after I ran, I became lucid. The weird thing was when I stopped moving and just kind of stood still for a while, I had a surge of energy that I could release and I could do anything I wanted.

      It was pretty neat. Thanks

      sometimes stressful dreams are a sign of a subconscious disturbance... maybe something is not right in your life right now... maybe you're having some issues with someone you care about.. or at work... nightmares are usually a sign that something inside of us is out-balanced... i always have nightmares when i feel stressed, worried or sad... once i get around figuring out whats bothering me and i start dealing with it, my dreams become much more peaceful...


      this is just my opinion, i don't know... hopefully it helps a bit...
