I have always found it odd that I have very few dream signs, being that all my dreams rarely ever have any similarities. I can remember only a few times I was in a familiar location. Sometimes my dream references a dream that I had years ago. I have never even done a reality check in a dream. I just become lucid from my surroundings.
THE POINT IS.....
My dreams are messed up.
I can't really look for dream signs because I have almost nothing to look out for. The only dreams I become lucid in are not because of dream signs, but because I just am more aware in the dream and I realize that something is wrong. So with that being said, what's the point of me doing reality checks when I never use them anyway? I only use reality checks to think about lucid dreaming more during the day, so the question "am I dreaming?" can eventually carry on into a dream. And it works surprisingly well for me. I have a lucid dream every other night or so. I just think that if don't do reality checks, the question "am I dreaming?" won't be answered and will just leave me confused. I would have to test if I'm dreaming or not. It's like asking yourself "what time is it?" and you don't check the time. It's just sort of a dilemma for me. I think it would be right to stop doing any reality checks besides "am I dreaming?" but at the same time, it would be ineffective to even ask if I'm dreaming at all. Could someone possibly provide some answers to my situation here?
