Having trouble getting out of bed...

[D1r3w0lf]

Like the title says I'm having trouble getting out of bed during LDs, I have tried rolling over,floating , sinking in the bed(that only made it worse). Very few things have worked such as asking help from DCs, in one occasion i grab the hand of the DC and he sunk in the bed... I also said very loud "Take me to _____!!" and sometimes it works and other times i just remain glued to my bed. My last LDs were on 06/07/09, 06/08/09, 06/10,09 , the last two i manage to reenter them as soon as i got out, just to land in the same situation. Very few occasions i have LDs that start in a landscape most of them start where I induce the LD. So if you have any suggestions please let me know

Hm, maybe if you made a rope appear on the ceiling above your bed, and you used it to pull yourself to your feet. You could also try dream spinning, though that may be difficult while lying down.

I remember seeing a thread saying that a guy could not move in lucid dreams because he stuck staring at a wall. Is getting stuck like this is common in lucid dreams? I had a few lucid dreams myself but I never had any problem moving my body in them, then again I became lucid later in the game and not at the start of it. Also you could do a search for that wall thread as it pretty new and see if anyone have already thought of a solution that would work here to.

Hm, maybe if you made a rope appear on the ceiling above your bed, and you used it to pull yourself to your feet. I tried it once, for some reason when the rope appeared I couldn't grab it. I usually do a RC before moving. I'll give it another go next time i get a LD. I've been lucky this month

So i had a LD today (06/14/09) and manage to get out of bed by blinking. I also use rubbing hands and some RC prior to getting out bed. Something interesting happened too, when rubbing hands didn't work anymore I started rubbing my right foot against my left leg and it gave me the same result as rubbing hands. I couldn't give the rope a try... also blinking felt weird, I felt disoriented after using it.

Flood the room and swim out. Not like you could drown. Punch the wall and "let" there be a water pipe there. I guessing you have your bed against a wall like most people.

BELIEVE AND HAVE CONFIDENCE that you will get out of your bed. Expect to. This is the most important thing. Imagine the glue coming unstuck and you getting to your feet. Or imagine another place in your head with great detail and imagine being there.

So i finally overcame my OP problem , but whenever i manage to fully stand up and walk around the dream ends.... Today (11/27/09) I had two lucid dreams where I try rubbing my hands or spinning to prolong lucidity and neither work... Is not that I am overly excited it just fades... I am absolutely calm during the whole process I recognize the moment when my body fully paralyzes etc... Any tips?

You need to adjust your mindset out of your bed (like at a park or somewere not in a bed unless....) anyway, so you wont have all this bed buisness.
