Will being a psychopath affect my ability to lucid dream?
I know that this is a short post but who cares its a good question.
One last thing, don't reply if you don't know thats just wasting your time I only want to know if I can lucid dream as easily as everyone else
Shouldn't be a problem at all, it's just cold practice.
Everyone is on the spectrum IMO and everyone can lucid dream. Depending on what psychiatric condition you have, I would argue that it might even be easier for you. Lucid dreaming is all about intention and awareness. If you can access those two things you can learn to lucid dream.
Some psychiatric medications can affect sleep and dreams, though. So if that's something you're concerned about you should ask your doctor. Otherwise, happy dreaming :)
No.
I know one psychopath and he had very vivid LDs (not on purpose but I don't think it's matter). So I don't think so that would be a problem.
Yeah, in terms of lucid dreaming you're the same as a normal person.
I guess depending on what specifically your psycho-ness entails, the thing that I would point out is related to you not being able to tell the difference between real and unreal. If you can't tell the difference in real life (say, if you have hallucinations), then how are you going to be able to tell in a dream? Now that's mainly for DILDs. So if you're really having an issue with real vs unreal, you'd probably have a better shot with WILD. That way, you're not already in a dream and having to question your surroundings, you just start out lucid. And that, like sujiro said, is just a matter of practice.
Good luck with it! Should be interesting to read your dreams :P
This is great news. I don't take any medication so thats good
Thanks. And yes I'll try to put some of my dreams into a journal here as well as in my normal DJ
