Write down reliable reality checks and describe them. Let me start with one (feel free to do more at a time).
Hold your nose
Its fast, easy and reliable. All you gotta do is put your hand to your nose to the point where in real life you wouldn't breath. If you can breath without a question your dreaming
Look at text then look away its probley changed if it was a dream
Good one, but i'm thinking of on the go ones. Sure you may see text but you can't see it all the time.
Finger thought palm
Sometimes (depends on person) if you try to push a finger through your palm hardish it will will go through.
Try pulling your thumb, it will stretch out really long in a dream.. Good luck
Getting it back to normal :lol:
simply look at your hands...they always appear distorted
I've noticed that I can pick up little facts or tidbits in my dreams that conflict with reality. For example, I'll be having a conversation with someone I know in real life has been dead for years. A few weeks ago I had a dream about watching a documentary about Brian Jones that said he died when he was 61. Dude died when he was 27. That's when I started to figure out I was dreaming.
I always dream about people I know. So every time I see someone I know, I do a reality check by holding my nose and trying to breath through it.
I've used all kinds of reality checks though. Once I wore a watch that was not working. It was frozen at 6pm sharp. And everyday I would randomly check my watch as to see if I was dreaming or not (in the dream it wouldn't be frozen like in reality).
change the background of your phone to plain large bold text that says "AWAKE" (or something to that extent, i took a snapshot of the text in photoshop) every time you look at your phone it will also double as a reality check. if the text is ever NOT there or appears distorted, or says something else. you are dreaming.
