Thread: Lucid dream advice

I have had lots of Lucids dreams where i can change my dream to what i usually want ....but now when i realize I'm dreaming i wake up instantly when i try and change the dream...is there anyway to prevent myself waking up?

Its so annoying now as i cant seem to change my dream without waking up

I also suffer with sleep paralysis and have had it since 6 where my parents didn't understand what it was , i suffered with it almost everyday for years without understanding what it was ....felt like someone was in my room and holding me down and i would hear whispering it was horrible ....luckily though i don't get it as much now but i am scared that if there was ever a fire that i may not be able to move from this as i cant move and it takes a lot of effort to be able to just move an arm....if i dont make an effort to move it feels like its coming on worse...sorry its hard to explain.

But i have been suffering from horrible nightmares constantly just lately and i sometimes shout out or punch ....is this normal to suffer with different sleep disorders like this?
