First let me say hello to everyone. I was refered to this site from and ADHD board I take part in, and let me say, it feels good to be home.

I am 25 years old, live in Chicago, and I have ADHD, Dyslexia, and I have alwasy been able to Lucid dream for as long as I can remeber.

Recently I have started to experience more frequently sleep paralysis at teh start of falling asleep. I have started to reach a higher elvel of conciousness as I fall asleep and thus I have started to experience more and more now, a sense of falling asleep, yet fully awake.
I can feel my body physically shut down part by part, until the paralysis takes over, and the hum is felt. I used to be scared, but now I am not, and each time it has happened I have let it go further along before suddenly jerking awake.

I have always been able to control my dreams in a sense, and I remember the dream and the time when i first gained this abillity.

I was 6 years old, dreaming about the dark robed killer, this Grim Reaper figure that used to have me tied to an exam table, and experiment on me. I had this dream repeatedly over and over for a long time, until that day. I suddenly realized this was a dream, I smiled to the dark figure, stood up, and beat his butt to death. I awoke shortly after and never have had that dream again.

The other dream was of an alien invasion that started and I was in the barn on my families farm and I was trying to run as fast as I could to the house where it was safe. I had this dream so many times, I always knew I was running fast but not really moving much at all. I broke free of this dream when I stood up and made the invasion totally disapear forever.

From that point on I have been bale to induce my own dreams, create them at will, and control them to some degree, although not always fully control them.

I have also had very disturbing dreams that I used to fear, but now see as gifts. I will have fully conversations with people I know, play out events in my life and experience things in my life, only to find them actually happen in reality shortly after, sometimes that very day after.

I have finished my finacee's sentences and thoughts before she even has opened her mouth, and finish whole conversations she and her sister had that I was not part of in reality, but listened to in my dream.

I have played out daily events, only to find myself in them in reality, and have managed to avoid accidents, errors, and missed calls, due to knowing they were going to happen before they actually did.

Weird?
Maybe but very possible.

I look forward to sharing and talking mroe with you all, thanks!
