Thread: Is Lucid dreaming Reality checks similar to Insanity/going crazy?

I must admit that I don't do a lot of RC checks IWL. If I do then it is the 'classic' nose-pinch check. I might do one outside, etc. if I see something out of the 'norm' for example [Sarcasm] like when an energy company lowers their prices just before the cold winter![/Sarcasm] - RC NOW!

Joking aside, I think the time when an RC is mandatory is when you wake up/get out of your bed (IWL.) Hopefully this has the net effect of being carried over into your dreaming world where you can pick up on realising false awakenings.

For example my DJ word cloud has the word 'Bedroom' displayed quite prominent in bold - thus I would say it is a common theme. I guess it is for many other dreamers too.

In your bedroom you don't have to answer to anybody, except your other half maybe, or the cat; so you can RC away to your heart's content.

I know Thomas Yuschak wrote an excellent book regarding certain supplements on the actions of the main key neurotransmitters of the brain, etc. I dunno about psychedelics. I'd have thought the leaning would be toward nootropics and the brain myself, athough it is a topic for another day maybe.
