Thread: Getting Tackled by DC's

The answer is simple. Since you have complete control over what goes on in your head (regardless of whether you know it or not) you must either resist the tackle or tell your DC to gtfo! It's easy to say, but much harder to apply. In short, you must overcome it yourself! Not much we can say.

You do NOT have complete control over what goes on in your brain. The unconscious is the master when it comes to subconscious perception.

Run!! Run!!


Or else drive away

Isn't mastering subconscious functions what lucid dreaming is all about? If you are capable of overcoming your unconscious functions, then you have the ability to control them. I am a firm believer that humans are possible at controlling whatever they like about themselves. Does this mean anyone ever does it, or that it's easy? No, not neccessarily.

I have a similar problem. Because i have been decieved by dream characters before (being attacked) i fear it happening so then it does of course because of the fear it is going to.

I had a similar problem, or a certain DC alway coming and doing unwanted things to me and ruining my dreams. I had to confront this DC and tell them to stop it. You may want to spend some time thinking about how it will feel to confront the tackling DCs. You don't need to imagine how they will react, just how you will say it and how saying it will feel. Maybe draw some pictures if you are an artist.

I also have something like that going on, but I invite the problem by antagonizing the DC's, rather than random attack as you are experiencing.

I'm going to try some advice that some one gave me on becoming insubstantial, like smoke, so anything that touches me will pass right thru. That may be a problem if you don't even see it coming, but maybe you can incubate it ahead of time.

I wonder if you could remember to yell "BACK OFF!" as soon as you become lucid; maybe that would help. On the other hand, maybe that is just perpetuating they cycle, if it is happening because you expect it to.

Let us know what if you figure out something that works. I would be interested in that.

I wholeheartedly agree with that, but I also think this embodies a certain amount of cooperation between them. I doubt the correct method is to be forceful and intrusive about it.
