They say that the best way to overcome your fears is to face them. Lucid dreaming is no exception to this; in fact, it is probably the best example of that saying. |

Hello fellow onironauts. How are you all doing?. |

I have a general distaste for interacting with people in waking-reality, because it seems that most people are not worth the effort required. But I don't think that lucid dreaming can help you overcome this fear, because just the nature of lucid dreaming (that is, knowing it is just a dream) removes all responsibility and accountability from your actions. You can chat up as many guys and girls as you want in a dream with no problem or dance on a stage, naked, in front of millions of people...But when it comes to being awake...Well, we seem to put more value in this world--maybe because it remains relatively consistent and remembers to a certain degree what we do. I think you need to confront your fear in the realm it exists. |

Social anxiety is very, very normal. It is specially ripe with online savvy peeps, as the social wizards are... you wouldn't have guessed this... out socializing. This prejudiced is precisely why they're so good: so much have they socialized that socializing is a subconscious thing for them – like a beating heart. They have a verbal slam-dunk to any situation, any person, because they've been in said situation and met a similar individual many times previously. If all your friends are stunning chicks, talking to a stunning woman at whim is as easy as taking a leak – hell; you do it all the time! |

Yes you know I'll die for you
And ya know I'll ride with you
I will always try with you
And give ya my love, and cry with you
Like to add a few things: I've used dreams to help me beat MA competitors I thought unbeatable. |

Hi all. |

Aye, it will help you. Not only have dreams helped me overcome challengers in Martial Arts, I've read of at least one instance where LDs were used to overcome a fear. Some guy was scared of tigers, and he would always have this dream where he was confronted by a tiger, and the tiger would always nearly kill him and then he'd suddenly wake up. |

I grew up pretty damn shy, so I think I have somethings to say. |
