Altering time in dreams is a somewhat controversial subject. Some people say every dream is the same as real time, others say they can last 10 minutes in real time, yet feel like hours. Some even claim that they can last for years. I remember a thread a few months (maybe a year) ago about someone claiming to be able to stay in a LD for several years. Nobody ever verified this and he just sort of disappeared (i think). His claim was that he sat in a completely blank template, just a large white expanse with one clock in the middle with seconds on it as well. He said that he would just stare at the clock for hours on end, until he eventually just left it. Then, he claimed that the dream lasted several years, in which he did not do anything crazy, but lived a normal life. He said that if he did anything that couldn't be done in waking life that the dream would get very unstable. Nobody was ever able to re-create this and, as I said, I believe said person is long gone. Most people were highly skeptical and dismissed it as a plea for attention, while a few believed him. |
