What Do I Do ??

[Dreamer95]

I have a concern. I've known a lot of people who always tell me about how their dreams are almost as vivid as real life. And then they tell me their dreams have always been like that. My problem is that I have the exact opposite. Let's say you took a medium sized TV, walked back about 8 feet, and then added a little blur to the screen, that would be my dream. Blurry, small.. Just really unfocused. My dreams have always been like this, I have a really hard time imagining a dream that was as realistic as being awake. Why aren't my dreams more vivid? Am I going to be stuck like this? Is there anyone else like me? Pretty please help! (Also, I'm still pretty new to lucid dreaming, I have had about 8 LDs, but even those had a very unfocused look to them!)

Make your goal when you become lucid to stabilize the dream and increase vividness. Many of my non-lucids are fuzzy, like what you are describing, but my LD's are always very vivid once I stabilize. Also, whenever, I am actively keeping a Dream Journal, the clarity in my dreams improve as well. Don't worry, you're definitely not "stuck" like this forever. Just keep recording your dreams every night and work on awareness in WR.

I want a vivid dream so bad! Thanks for the tips too, I hope your right about the "stuck" thing.. !

Do you have bad vision in waking life? Try wearing a pair of glasses in a lucid dream. I've done it myself and they kicked up the vividness a lot.

Nah, I actually had 20 20 vision last time I got checked out.. Yeah I've herd of that technique somewhere before, I'll try it next time I go lucid.. If I remember, haha
