This is quite strange and I would like to see if anyone has any answers to my problem.. I'm almost 23 years old, I trained myself to lucid dream when I was 12 upon discovering the possibility of such dreaming. Since then I became strong in the respect of dreaming. Think the boys from Chronicle and their abilities, then add the ability to manifest not only objects, but people that I wished to have envolved in the dream. I could change an entire landscape before me with ease if I had pleased. In other words, when my head hit my pillow at night I become the closest thing I believe to a God that is possible. Going lucid itself was a cinch... I'd simply began dreaming, and within 10 seconds I would have known it was a dream and I would began doing as I pleased...

And then I had a strange dream.

I awoke on my bed, which is floating mind you, on a path of dirt towards a great door. On either side of me and this path I am on, Trees. Large and tall, but all the same exact size. Not randomly placed either, they are all in rows and columns, and I could see the horizon beyond the trees, and it's a very subtle grey along the horizon. I am lucid, but I do or change nothing. Why? Because this special dream was utterly beautiful. Never could I conjure this on my own in any dream state. The bark on the trees are heavily detailed, so is the dirt, and path. As if this were the Garden itself! As I approach this great door it opens, I'm still a good 20 feet away when it does so, and I can see that the path only goes far enough into the door to fit the bed and I. Beyond it is shrubbery, twice my height standing, and on all sides surrounding the bed stretching for what I discovered
very... Unpleasantly, went on for miles. The door begins to close as I take a look around, still seated on the floating bed. I say to myself "What a strange but beautiful dream.." and as I begin to speak the word "Dream" the doors seal shut and I'm flung at what feels to be a thousand miles an hour into the shrubs, turning "Dream" into a scream that begins to warp and turn into a very mechanical,synth-y type yell. I attempt full control, fail. I attempt to stop myself, fail. I attempt to summon a wall to stop me, fail. It's as if another being stronger than I is in control, and the scary part about it is that I could literally FEEL such a beings presence. I do only what I can do, and I thankfully taught myself how to do so, and wake myself up.

That was 7 months ago.

Ever since this dream every dream I have had I can FEEL that other entity, in every single one. Draining me of my power. within 2 months, I lost the ability to manifest people and objects. within three, I could no longer move objects within a dream. After 5, my flight speed had been seriously reduced. Last night? I could not fly. I could do nothing. I was just... Dreaming.. But fully aware that I was!

As well as this, my dreams have gotten... strange. They are beginning to tease me with my deepest desires.. To see someone I will never see again (THAT one utterly destroyed me. I awoke in tears.) To, simply put, punish those that have wronged me. Dreams that I would never manifest myself for it would break a sort of moral code.

I ask if anyone else has experienced something similar.. And if they could overcome it and regain control? Reality is honestly such a drag, and my dreams were such a beautiful escape of it. But now I've lost control of them and have to ride out the dreams laid before me.

Any help would be appreciated.
