Definitely spent 2 hours asleep and felt like a day in my dream last night. Havent had the time to work on lucidity, been busy with work but I'm alive, no less, but I definitely felt like I was 8-12 hours in a dream.

Cool, I would be scared if I had a time dilation moment. Hope you had fun.Quote:

I think the question is, do you feel like your dream laster 8 - 12 hours for no apparent reason or do you think you accomplished 8 - 12 hours worth of activities in the dream?Quote:

I wish some expierienced lucid dreamers would just enter this thread and answer like BOOM
I believe that the reason why dreams feel longer than they actually are is because you are completely present in every moment.
Try counting 3,600 seconds in your head and it will feel like forever.
All the LaBerge study shows is that time in the dream CAN correspond to waking time. In no way did it prove that time MUST ALWAYS correspond under all circumstances. That is just simple basic logic.
That's true, but there are good reasons to assume that dream time is probably the same, since several tests have indicated this.Quote:

If a lucid dream feels like it lasted for weeks, then it does indeed feel like several "real" weeks to the dreamer.
Can't help you there. SorryQuote:
