      I don't know what's happened. I can't seem to control much of anything anymore. I consider myself a fairly experienced lucid dreamer, but in my last three lucid dreams I couldn't do anything I wanted to. The one I had last night, I was in my basement and randomly plugged my nose. Wooo! I was dreaming. I tried to fly but with no luck (a skill that I have previously mastered) I tried all different sorts of ways too. I tried the superman fist, flapping my arms and even growing wings but nothing would work. Then I went upstairs and saw that it was dark outside so I turned around and shouted "When I look out the window again it is GOING to be day time!" but.. It wasn't. Then I heard the shower and figured my dad was getting ready for work, so I went back downstairs and was afraid I was going to get in trouble. For some reason I thought that I was dreaming but sleepwalking at the same time.. I don't know what is wrong but it kind of sucks. Has this happened to anyone? What can I do to overcome it?

      Stress may be the cause. Stress can kill LDing. Anything stressful going on lately? Other things such as being unfocused and such or more concentrated on something else can also have an effect.

      You won't necessarily overcome it. That is not to say that you'll never fly/change dream scenes again.. what it means is that there is no such thing as 100% control, and anybody who says otherwise is grossly exaggerating and/or deluded..

      ..but there is such a thing as 100% lucidity, and that's what you have to strive for. Evidence of this is pitifully absent on this website I'm afraid. Good luck.
