Oooo. I had a hunch that the first one was wrong, but the second one is as well? *a bright light shines at the end of my tunnel*. (I dont care at all about being wrong, I don't want to be right all the time, just at the end of the day, after I have learned)

First. You are saying that nightmares are evolutionary beficial because they get us prepared for a dangerous situation right (I don't believe in evolution as you know), but if nightmares are beneficial to survival, then that is something interesting for me to look into more. :3

If I could find a way other than fear or lucidity to make a nightmare, then I might be able to lucid more. Could you send me a link to things that actually cause nightmares (please dont say cheese, that doesn't work). I have been lucid in every nightmare since I was young and someone told me to wake myself up from them. I had trouble waking up at first and spent some time knowing that it was a dream. Most everything that I have found that "induces nightmares" are old wive's tales, but if you have a way, please show me!
