Lucid dreaming.
I'm not really into dream interpretation or any of that. But I delve into certain paranormal things and find many references to lucid dreams. Many of these articles state that often lucid dreams take practice to accomplish... I've always had lucid dreams, I am almost always aware of and can control my dreams.I thought it was normal to be aware of and to be able to control your dreams. But my dreams are very often warped and completely unreal but sometimes they are completely normal and I feel as if it is actually reality and I get kinda depressed when I wake up and I'm like shit it's just a dream. But most of the time, I have lucid dreams, but when I try to control them, many times it all goes in slow motion or something bad happens. And many times in my dreams, this is kinda weird but, I shoot up into the sky, like I'm flying but I'm really just jumping, like into outer space and then I fall and stop right before I hit the ground, and I love the feeling, it's such a rush, dreamwise. Can anybody tell me what this means?

Oh yeah one more thing
I forgot to mention that I can almost, without fail, all the time, remember my dreams if I want to, and often I can make them be about what I want them to be about. And I can pull myself out of any dream at any time if it gets too harsh and I can't control it... Oh yeah and this doesn't have anything to do with dreaming but if I have to wake up at a certain time and forget to set the alarm I usually wake up within 5 mins of that time. or if I do set the alarm sometimes I wake up right before it goes off

That's awesome that you can lucid dream so easily. You can really learn a lot. Looks like you already have some skils with dreaming/sleeping.I know what you mean about dreams being real. ONe time i had a dream where I was going to go to jail (even though I didn't do anything) and I was contemplating running. Major bummer. But when I woke up I was really glad it was just a dream.

Yeah but I never really remember my dreams unless I want to... Like if I go to sleep and want to remember a dream I will... If I just lay down and drift off to sleep I prob. won't.

Well as long as you want to remember your dreams, which you should, you shouldn't have a problem. I'm interested in your technique in remembering dreams. What do you do before you go to bed?

Usually I just lay down, close my eyes and either fall into some kind of deep thought before going to sleep which becomes my dream or focus on a single object... I picture it in my mind as if I could reach out and grab it and then when I fall asleep... I don't know it's hard to explain... I don't know if I mentioned this already but one time when I was younger I consiously forced myself into a lucid dream. I was probably about 8... My grandmother had just died and I was like crying myself to sleep. Next thing I know I'm in this really badass dream but I end up waking up, but I didn't want it to end... So I closed my eyes and focused on the last moment in the dream realllly hard and within what seemed like seconds I was back in the dream. I still remember some of it too.... I was some kind of superman type hero figure and I was saving this girl that I had a crush on... I remember flying through a window... That's it...
