Yeah, as a kid I had a serious problem with nightmares. This weird red eyed shadow bear figure used to lurk and attack me sppntaenously... The sheer terror of it's presence was horrible, but I grew up into it. I think I somehow started to invite the bear into my dream subconsciously, because every time I knew when it would come due to this eerie feeling, dream characters also vanished and I suddenly was all alone.

I started having this love/hate relationship with the beast, it ALWAYS induced lucidity to me in more or less powerful ways.

I miss that teddy... Yeah he was scary, but lucids were nice!
