As the title says, I have a sleeping disorder caused Narcolepsy, and this has many side effects. The one I'd like to talk about is the lucid dreaming. Is there any way to stop? I can only sleep for about 45 minutes tops before I wake up and have to force myself to fall back asleep. This happens many times every night. I'm wondering if perhaps the dreaming has something to do with it. REM sleep is the only stage I enter when I fall asleep it seems, and I go into it immediately, rather than after going through the other normal phases first. And the dreaming.. Always lucid. I always know it's a dream. I used to be able to control them, but now I can't anymore. They just go wherever they go. Waking up is an extremely unpleasant feeling. I feel exhausted, my body aches, and I can't help but wonder does the dreaming have anything to do with any of that?
