Sometimes when I become lucid, I feel rushed to try everything beofre I wake up. Does anyone else ever feel like this?
I feel that I might wake up at any moment so there is some pressure to do things before losing the dream.
yes I feel as if my mind is involuntarily racing and I move from one thing to another with a quickness. The last time I had a lucid dream I got control of it. I just stopped and looked at my hands, looked away, looked again, then looked away, then did it a third time, and looked away again. This helped me to calm down. Immediately after becoming calm the dream started to fade so a grabbed hold of a solid table and I ran my hands over it and felt how real it was. This made the dream stay. After this I was cool and calm and it was the first time I had good control over the dream. I had to keep spinning and stuff like that a few times, but it was still a pretty good dream.
Lately I've been feeling very rushed so I decided to try something. I concentrated on my hands for a few seconds and that let me keep the dream for a bit longer. Anything to get your mind off feeling rushed should work but it is hard, at least I find, to not get worried. It often causes me to forget what I wanted to do also and then I get frustrated and wake up.
I completely agree with you a 100% percent on that. Every time I became lucid I would run around doing as much as I could. Though, with no reason one lucid dream I had I asked a child what time it was. She replied by saying "He took time away." So since then I never found the feeling of rushing a lucid dream anymore though, I do sometimes feel rushed but hardly ever.
So in quick terms yes I've experienced it.
