Thread: Dont Get What Causes Lucid Dreams

So I know what a lucid dream is, and Ive had many Lucid Dreams. But they started out of no where it seems. Ive been thinking that it might have been due to the new the medication Im on. I have primary insomnia, and have been perscribed for it. I thought it might be because of that. But I really dont know.

Well, did they start right after you started taking sleep medication?

Yea Im pritty sure they did....

It has to do with chemicals in the brain more than anything. So your medication may have had something to do with it.

Lucid Dreams are simpley caused by high conscious activity in the brain when you enter a dream, the more aware you are in a lucid dream the more you become suspicious of your current state. I have a friend who has took medication for insomnia, he tells me he sleeps well but he doesn't hardly remember any dreams, recall is definitly important in lucid dreaming, if you don't remember your dreams well, that could effect your ability, both because you might forget lucid dreams, and possibly you might get less familiar with them.

I remember almost every thing and I remember so many little detail. Lucid Dreams come natural to me...even thought I take Seroquel, I had a couple Lucid Dreams before. But when I started taking my medication they became way more frequent.
