Thread: protection

Is it possible that sometimes your subconscious protects you from going lucid to protect your sanity or something? Last night I kept getting to the stage of doing reality checks, but the dreams I was in were just too weird and a voice or image or feeling would stop me, as if to say ‘not tonight’.

Also isn’t it strange how your dream self accepts pretty much anything as real? You would think that it would be much easier to go lucid, considering some of the unreal situations you can find yourself in.
