Thread: Stupidest Ways You've Missed Becoming Lucid

I had a dream just recently where I, randomly yelled 'I am dreaming!' ( I was in the mall with my friends). I tried to prove it by jumping off something but, because I had doubt in my mind that I wasn't actually dreaming, I just jumped and landed with the normal laws of physics (therefore missing becoming lucid).

I thought "this is too fun to go lucid." And literally chose not to become lucid. lmao

I forgot to mention that I was excited cause the map was my neighborhood. I yelled to my teammates and only Ellis came (the others dissapeared cause i stopped paying attention) and we ran to my house. Then I gave him a tour of the house.

When I am in video games in dreams, they are realistic as if it's life, not playing a game with a controller. At first the objects were static as if a game but once I wanted to show him the house it was real.

Spending time on DreamViews.

I spent time on MortalMist.

Problem is, I don't even know what MM looks like. Never been on it. I'm also too young to get on it.

This is a hilarious thread! I have written in my dream journal, where I had about 10 or 20 lucids written at the time... and didn't even think, well, maybe I should do a reality check or something... the journal was like shrunken and I had in the dream filled up about 2/3 of it, when in reality I only have like 1/8 (it's a pretty thick journal, and I use both sides of the pages).

Trying to go to sleep in a dream so that I can have a lucid dream -_-

At least I think that's how it was.

I was walking through my school and went into the toilets, there was a cafe-area within the toilets and i thought it was totally normal. :/

I had a dream once where for some random reason, I started attempting to use telekinesis on this unidentifiable white object thingy on the floor. Suddenly something clicked and I thought: "hey, if this is a dream, I really could do that!" So I tried, and nothing happened. "Nope, this is definitely not a dream." ...and then I went on to fight the evil dude that was going to blow up the earth with some invention that was powered by cow eyeballs.

I was talking to someone
I said
"I am having a Lucid Dream right now!!!"
The person said "Yeah you are!"
I said "No I am not bye I have to go kick the moon or else it will eat my mother because my mom beat its fish in a game of basket ball. But first I must eat you."
I then ate the person, and proceeded to do what I said.
I never became lucid in the dream.

I always forget to do reality checks. Lately I've been trying to them a different way. Instead of making sure this is reality, I make sure this is not a dream. So I try to make something move across the room, or make something spontaneously combust, which seems like something I should be able to do if I was doing a reality check in a dream.
So, the other night I was dreaming. I was walking down a street and went into this parking lot where I came face to face with a much younger version of myself and my little sister and for some reason my aunt. My aunt informed me that this was a dream, and that I was really in acoma with hepatitis (???). I was so scared that I was like....let's make sure this is not a dream, so I tried to make my aunt catch on fire. It didn't work, so I assumed she was telling the truth. I woke up immidately. I was so pissed when I woke up!

I counted 6 fingers on my hand and figured I was awake.
Later, I counted 5 fingers and figured it was impossible and I was asleep.

Total screw up there.

I've done this many times. I don't mind not coming lucid cause I have the most awesome hallucinations.

This beats the dog playing chess with the fish and they couldn't become lucid because he had him in checkmate

I just woke from a nap and had an LD, trying to complete a new goal; however, the next dream involved me completing that goal, without being lucid.

Okay, so a couple of nights ago, I dreamt about a furious koala the size of a lion, which was chasing me and it eventually bit me:lol

I had on my watch. I then looked down and saw another watch which was a not-so-faithful replication of my own. I take this watch and put it on next to the other watch. A new watch appears. I put that on. I look away, look back at my arm, and it now has 4 watches instead of 3. I thought "hey, this is a dream!". But I could feel the dream fading, so I was all like "Nah, I better just not go lucid so the dream lasts longer".

Falling asleep

This one happened a while ago.

I was kidnapped by Stephen LaBerge and held hostage for 3 days. I mean, really? -_-

lol

i just decided not to do an rc because i was to afraid of what might happen so i didn't. I guess it was realy an LD cause i could control the sun ?!

I had one were I was describing lucid dreaming to this guy in detail.
I woke up and was like "how the hell did I miss that?"

Last night I had a dream where I was on DV and a guys sign said "do a reality check" and I never did. I later had a false awakening, went through all 7 hours of school (how lame..) and came home and got back on. His sig was different and I was like "oh well.. he had a different sig in my dream than on here I should've caught it!"

The name and avatar and gender and even the paragraph post of text were exactly the same both times, just not the sig.

I did a RC and still didn't become lucid

that is like every dream. honestly how do I not think it's weird that I'm a bear? or my brother turned into a tree? or that teleporting through water spheres is normal? i also went lucid for the first time the other night and then lost it cuz there was an explosion that distracted me. it was a damn shame cuz I tried out flying.

Well the logic part of our brains is off when we dream, but on when we lucid.
