Attaining lucidity and the next days emotions

If on a scale of 1-10.

1 being suicidal, 5 a normal outlook and 10 being psychotically happy.

Normally i`m in the low end. Never a number 1..but more like 3,4,5 on a daily basis. Thats just me, pessimistic and somewhat negative my entire life, as long as I can remember.

BUT, the day after I have an LD is an entirely different case. I`m up on the 7,8,9 scale.

I have no idea why. Maybe its a control thing, maybe I just find LD`s one of the funnest things that a human can do or perhaps its chemical.

Anybody else notive a severe personality change the day after?

If i wake up and i haven't had a lucid it's about the same 3,4,5 because i realise that i have wasted an entire night having non lucids when i could have been lucid doing anything imaginable. But if i have a lucid dream it can shoot from a 3 to a 9. I wake up in a great mood and it stays for the rest of the day.

Yeah. I feel like a 10 when I wake up after being lucid.

This is my first post. That's why I'm here. I want to perfect it better and be able to do it every night.

normally I am a 4 5 or 6, after a lucid dream I'm around 6 7 or 8

your probably happy after a lucid dream because they are so fun, if you were to go and do fun things awake, you will be happier, the same happens in your dreams.

I think lucidity really change your state of mind as well. You're controlling the chaos in your head and the next day I find my head and perception somehow more, refined?

Well then, :welcome: to Dreamviews! This is the best place you could come to to get information and help on lucid dreaming :boogie:
I've only had a few LDs but usually 7-9/10
How could anyone be suicidal after having a LD? :?

Normally I'm about a 5/6.

Depending on the lucid and how vivid it was, what I did and how much control I had.. I can easily feel a 10 the next morning. :)

I was just discussing this phenomenon with a friend last night. Here's his question and my reply:

Last question for now. You mention feeling refreshed after these dreams: would that be more than ordinary nights or about the same as a sound, traditional sleep?

More refreshed than after a sound, traditional sleep. I wake from these invigorated... very happy... very secure feeling. It is almost a euphoria, but without any sort of altered perceptions.

It depends on how high the level of lucidity was, what I was able to do, etc. Most of the time I feel between a 6-8.

I try not to let Lucid dreaming become the be all and end all of my night sleeping, or my outlook on life, but after lucid dreams I think initially I feel a buzz, but after that my day is pretty much normal..

Hmmm. Never really thought about how when I LD I have truly slept great. I was assuming it was the LD in and of itself.

Cool...
