Thread: Things you desire to stop dreaming about

FA's (as in false awakenings) because they always trick me.

I do wish to stop dreaming that I am still in high school and that I am late for a class or that I am cutting class and I am stressing out being there. I'm don't with high school thank you and nor do I wish to revisit those days in any way shape or form. =D

lately it seems like something/someone is actually controlling my dreams and messing with me. I wish it/they would stop. It's been going on for months now. Before that, I had great lucids all the time for my entire life. it's starting to worry me. even if I am lucid in these dreams, it doesn't matter. It's still a nightmare beyond my control and I can't wake myself up.

Something has got to give. I don't even want to go to sleep.

Zombies. But I guess I could just quit watching horror movies before bedtime.

If you are unhappy with your dream content you can change it, and not just through LD's. Pay attention to your thoughts as you fall asleep. Are you spending a large amount of time focusing on these people/events as you fall asleep? Learn some simple meditation techniques and clear your mind when you lay down for bed. Then focus on something you would like to dream about and incubate a dream. For that matter, throughout the day, if you spend more time focusing being present in the moment, maybe adding in a few daydreams about what you'd like to dream about that night, instead of focusing on your thoughts, you'll find this effects your dreams as well.

Dreams that make me feel unhappy when I am in it, as if we don't have enough unhappiness in reality, it should come to a stop in dreams.
