Well, even though you said you do not want this, but my aunt cannot post on here, so here you go:

When I first started lucid dreaming, my aunt who was a very Freudian psyciatrist at the time (abd is now a very conservative Roman Catholic nun), she was much opposed to the idea of lucid dreaming because coming from a Freudian psychiatrist point of view, she believed that we have dreams to work out issues that our subconscious needs to work out, and she believed that lucid dreaming would mean that your conscious mind would take over, and thus your subconscious would have less time to work out issues that it needed to work on.

Obviously, I disagreed with my aunt, and I pursued lucid dreaming anyway. I figured not all my dreams would be lucid after all, and if my subconscious needed to, it would find a way to do it.

However, I figured you might be interested in hearing about my aunt's point of view.
