      Dreams That Destroy Our Sense of Logic

      Okay, so last night I had a crazy dream (alongside other crazy ones) where I saw a loved one that is currently deceased, and I asked them how they were there and all, because I pretty much figured they shouldn't be. But it felt extremely life-like, to the point that I couldn't tell what was reality and what was the dream! This was the first time I've been forced to do an RC to see if I was dreaming, and after lifting up a tissue paper with telekinesis, I realized that I had been dreaming. Now here's my question:

      Have you ever had a dream that seemed to destroy your sense of logic to the point that you couldn't tell the difference between dream and reality, even when you are finally lucid?

      Dude, those are like, all my Lucid dreams. Its always very life-like, but then I realize, "Holy Shit! I'm dead, Lucidity!" But then everything is still, there is a cold breeze, and I can't tell if its really a dream, the environment is stable, and my (basic) RCs confirm its reality, but I just thought I was dead. So, hesitantly attempt to fly, and upon flight, I reaffirm that flight is not possible in waking life, and become fully Lucid.

      Yeah I've had a couple of Semi lucids like that. I wouldn't call them Fully lucid yet because being fully lucid by my terms keeps you in the knowledge of being in a Dream no matter how realistic the Dream is.

      I remember a rather mad near-lucid where I had like 5 false awakenings in a row.
      woke up, tried to hit the light on next to my bed but it wouldn't go on. It was so totally realistic I just thought"Screw it" and went back to sleep(while already asleep). Woke up again tried to flip on the light again. Again didn't work. Tried to fall asleep but got terrified with strange metallic ratteling noises in my head and woke up again. lightswitch didn't work again. Then I suddenly fell into a black abbys. Like ascending into an eternal infinite field of blackness. I ascended down into a small hall with very low lightlevels. I sat there having spontaniously become Lucid and trying to calm my Mind getting some order in my thoughts, but lost it soon after that moment cause I "woke up" AGAIN.

      Tried the light switch and it didn't work again and it was just sooooo realistic I rather reasoned: "The power must be out or something". I got out of bed and went down a flight of stairs. On the 1st floor all lights were also out of power. I heard the fan of my PC as if it was on but when i went to check the PC room all was dark and there was no light comming from the PC. Still it was so realistic I just couldn't BELIEVE it could be a Dream. Then I went to my mom's bedroom, and jumped ontop of her ( She was like a sleeping mass under blankets) to test reality: Gravity didn't quite feel the same; like I fell in slowmotion somewhat. She woke up wining about me being annoying and exhausting and I told her "Mom I've had these maniacally strange dreams and now I Seriously don't know wether I'm awake or Dreaming"

      Then I Woke up for real, hit the light and it DID work this time. I guess the absurd level of realism kept dissuading the idea that it could be a Dream. Good point you've made.

      GRRAAARRGGHH!!! MY SUBCONCIOUS IS SO MEAN!!! I think it does it on purpose! I'm in a dream right? Then my dream self will say something along the lines of, "This is a really cool dream!" and I don't realize it's a dream! What up with that!!! What's even crazier is that when I DO become lucid, it's always during perfectly normal moments......
      What if I told you that I am dreaming right now?
      That your whole life is a lie?
      That the laws of physics as you know them are incorrect?

      Furthermore, what would you do if I told you I'm going to wake up as soon as you finish reading my signature?
