      This poll is the result of a short discussion with Moonbeam questioning why we often find ourselves as teenagers again in our dreams.

      I'm not even sure there are enough of us in this age bracket to generate meaningful or interesting poll results. Anyway, here it is, so let's give it a go!

      Please do keep it to the over 30 crowd. The reason is that I would expect somebody for whom the teen years are the present or recent past would dream about that as naturally as a 45 year old would dream about being her present age or within a few years of it.

      I know I can&#39;t vote but when I&#39;m older I&#39;d love to have dreams about being a teen, I often didn&#39;t/don&#39;t get enough drama in my life as it is, would love to experience high school a secound time were I control my popularity and everything else, in a lucid anyway.

      I feel the same way I wish I could stay a teen forever.



      I wanna be the very best
      Like no one ever was
      To lucid dream is my real test
      To control them is my cause

      I never had any dreams about my teen years. But my wife does all the time. I don&#39;t get it. I mean did I put up some sort of mental block, not that my teenage years was bad or anything. If anything they went by waaayyy to fast. So I voted no.

      I often dream about my primary school and the place where I lived as a teen. But I&#39;m not a teen in those deams any more.
      I think it may be a sort of nostalgy for the time that has passed by inevitably. But it may be some other reasons, more deeply grounded.
      I&#39;m tired being sorry.
