Thread: That Dreaming feeling

I havn't had an amazing number of LDs (prob around 50) but I've never gotten lucid from doing an actual reality check because I don't do them irl. Most of them i'll just suddenly realize that it's a dream. The only time I've ever done reality checks is to see if what everyone talks about on here actually works lol, like plugging your nose and breathing in through it or the finger through your palm.

That has happened t0 me
in my dream I even said "w0w im dreaming."

It happens

yep. it happend to me a couple of days ago.

Woot! it happened to me again! thats two lucids for me in three days!!!

thats what happened with my first LD, and my false awakening became a LD with that. I think its just the lack (or the different kind) of physical sensation on your body as a whole

yeah I do too. but when I induce WILD's via Binaural beats the dreams feel so real I wouldn't know it wasn't a dream if I wasn't already aware.

It's that dream feeling that makes me lucid. I pick up on it even if the dream seems very vivid and "realistic." For me it happens in around 99% of my dreams.

I guess its just has to do with the nature of being aware. You can be so caught up with life that you arent really aware that your living. but then when you stop and think, you are.

yeah in fact i recently started becoming more aware of my self and my surroundings and I really thinks its helped out a lot

There is a specialy feeling to consciousness and moving in dream. Next time you are lucid look for these feelings. This will cause a burst of lucidity in the following days.

For me, I'll see something that is a little weird in a dream, and it'll trigger a really light / tingly feeling in my body that is a total giveaway that I'm dreaming. One time I got that feeling when I was awake and I freaked out though. I was 80% sure I was dreaming because of it, then my heard started to race which freaked me out even more. I thought I could hear someone in the other room and kept looking over to see who was there although it was no one. I'd say I almost went crazy that day. I guess the moral of the story is don't do drugs kids
