Dream ( and play ) with yourself

[sunny.days]

Hi, first post here. I've had my share of spontaneous lucid dreams ( as well as other bizarre dreams) and I' pretend to start practicing the proper techniques to have them regularly. Now, to the point. I remember in my early days as a lucid dreamer I was fascinated with the possibilities this... phenomenon offered so naturally I started thinking in some of the things that I would do if I could master the art of dreaming while being 'awake' One of first the things that I thought I wanted to do was talking to myself, seeing myself. I've always dabbled with the idea of having a clone to do well... stuff with him. I've though that it would interesting to kill myself (kill my clone that is), but then I realized that it would be much more fun to fight (to death if possible) with myself. Now, how therapeutic would that be! - I'm a pshychologist by the way. Of course i'd do other thing with him (with me) such as playing cooperative games or sports, partying, talking about the past , sharing new viewpoints and all that, or simply sharing a beer for good old times. I'd only do the crazy stuff if I had the ability to make many, many clones... By the way, I told a friend about these ideas and he came up with the most intriguing of them all. What if - he said- you could have sex with yourself! Never mind the clinical or even the pshypathologic implications of this idea, it would certainly be one interesting piece of experience! Anyways... the trillion dollar question is: have you any of you guys be able to lucid dream with a vivid representacion of your self? On my first try I imagined a mirror and saw a blurry reflection of my self - bummer. I know that is generally accepted and usually the case that the characters of our dreams are just dissociated aspects of our personality or self - schizoid pieces created by years of identifications . But what about a literal representation of the self? It would be like trying to stare right at your ego ( which has many blind spots). but just imagining your self it's just the starting point, the real deal would be to be able do some of the thing described above. If this would be the case... which represetation of you would be the real you, or who would be imagining who? Never mind those stupid rhetorical questions..., just tell me: How would you grade the difficulty of achieving such a feature and - or do you even considered it possible-? and of course, has any of you done it with a reasonably grade of success?
