      Is anyone like me? I'm just looking for some similarity.

      Good evening,

      I feel strange even writing this. I know what I would like to reap from understanding these experiences, but I only have so many tools at my disposal.

      I guess I've had "lucid dreams" since I was approx. 7rs old or so. Extremely realistic events. Some, upon waking, I cannot distinguish from reality. For all I know, it DID happen.

      Every story I read or happen upon about "lucid dreaming" either involves ; flying, spooky sounds, almost hokum. I don't have those visions.

      I've had vivid, ultra emotional visions, yet in every instance I've retained my own identity. I am always "me" except in odd/different circumstances with a different "role". Meaning, the time period may change, (yet, it's never in the past. Always present or slight future.), some form of "astral projection" (it's the only term I can think of to best describe, other than my consciousness possessing a person that is fully awake.) I am always myself in morals, identity, physical features (only mild differences ever occur in the physical)

      The main constant is that they are all very possible events. They are not so fantastical that would seem complete fantasy. Some take on a "sci-fi" feel at times, yet Star Wars or Trek would never come to mind, and the emotions are always heightened. So much so, that upon waking I cannot slough off the sadness, loss, etc.

      Despite the overwhelming emotions, I revel in the experiences. I know that there must be some purpose for them. Something other that the brain trying to organize. They are all interconnected in some primal way.


      I'm a very spiritual person. Some of my "dreams", I believe, are views into another plane maybe.

      I do apologize for the liberal use of the quotation marks.

      Thank you for your time. Any information that you would like to share would be appreciated. Any questions of me would be welcomed as well.

      Sounds like you've had a very limited exposure to lucid dream stories, my friend. I've had many enjoyable, hilarious, and often adventurous lucid dreams. They're never spooky for me, never so unbelievable as to come off as hokum (though I'm still surprised so many people don't question my 'first-hand witness to the extinction of the dinosaurs' lucid dream story), and only a couple deal with flying, because quite frankly there's a whole lot more to lucid dreaming than simply exploring the y-axis of your dream world.

      Some of these dreams do indeed give me intense emotions that last into my waking life. You're not crazy and you've got nothing to worry about - happens to all of us at one point or another.

      Thanks for sharing your experience, KLM.

      I'm not on DV much these days, but I'll try to toss a cool dream or two into my DJ.

      Everything is possible in a lucid dream. When people become lucid, they all try doing something that is impossible in real life. In your lucid dreams, if you've had any, what do you do in them?
