Thread: What's your motivation for lucid dreaming?

This is my first post.

I think better control and understanding of my dreams could lead to a better understanding of myself and a better life for me. If it does I have a friend I think it could help out too.

But if that does not work, **** it, what other people have said flying, sex, doing whatever I want, not a bad consolation prize.

Also what the ****, I'll be asleep. Talk about great hobbies, I won't have to take off any time from work or miss out on family, it is literally time that I spend doing nothing now. Might as well fly around my own personal sandbox universe to kill time you know.

Mostly to "get to know" myself better. To explore my mind. I've been depressed for a few years and suffered from social phobia since childhood, so i'm hoping to find some way to work on that from within my dreams.

Then there's the fun factor of being able to do just about anything you could imagine.

What's my motivation for lucid dreaming? Very simple. It's that incredible unexplainable feeling when you realize you are in another world that looks 100% real, and realizing you are asleep in your bed. That feeling that you are exploring another dimension, and your subconscious at the same time.
