Thread: Do you find your state of mind different when Lucid?

The last posts were really good and reminded me of something. When I am in a regular dream, I do have different personality. It does of course feel like me, but it is often an uninhibited, automated and very reactionary me. So I can completely relate to what people are saying. But when I had written my posts, I had been thinking about when I lucid dream, in which case I always feel like myself. But usually when I lucid dream I WILD (if only for a few seconds. Need to work on getting those longer). When I WILD I start off the dream more or less from my waking life consciousness so the dream ends up feeling like waking life me. But on some occasions I do MILD. When I MILD I start the dream off with the dream personality active, the one that is more wild and try to make it more lucid by bringing in some awareness. I think this awareness must reflect my waking state, right?

Anyway, I think that if I MILD, I might be more likely to have a mixture of waking state and dreaming state personalities and not feel as much like myself. But if I WILD then I feel more like myself. Does this make sense? Anybody have any experience similar or opposite to this? Just a theory.
