Hey everyone!. I've had about 6 lucid dreams so far, 4 of them extremely short, my very first one wasn't to long but it was still a good lucid dream and my last one I had, last night (went for about 30mins) have me pondering on what to do in a situation. I don't know how to get away from DC's or dream realms or whatever you want to call them. Here is what I'm talking about. In my last lucid dream, I couldn't get away from my friend and our 'fake' friend. I tried conjuring this person I wanted to see but it took me to were his family lived but my friend was still with me and then I was taken to another scenery and my friend was still with me. At the very end of my lucid dream from last I was strapped down in a chair and there was a dentist DC and this women, they were just going work on my teeth and she had planned to cut off my finger and I was scared because I could feel the pain and I tried getting away, I tried summoning something that would scare them away. In this lucid dream, when I was by myself, I tried going somewhere I wanted but sadly I ended up in this dentist chair. What can I do to get out of certain situations?. Or, will it just come with experience?.

It seems to me like you haven't attempted to really teleport yourself or control DCs. Although to some it's unethical to an extent, controlling DCs can help you get yourself out of certain situations, like the ones you've posted. Just 'expect' them to not hurt you, and to walk away. It's even easier if you can think of a reason as to why they decide not to do something. For example, if there's someone with a gun walking towards you, expect them to turn around and walk away, saying, 'no, this isn't worth going to jail for'. If you were attempting to control the dream, try that. If you were, well, some dreams just lack control. Everyone has lucids like that. Control comes from experience. I used to only be able to summon DCs, but with a lot of practice, now I can control their actions. Good luck. :3

First of all, THANK YOU so much for replying!. I honestly never thought of trying to control my DC's cause if I had, I would have straight away to get away from these DC so thank you!. I had to wake myself up because I was so uncomfortable in this dream and that sucked cause I believe the lucid dream would've lasted alot longer. I hope to have many more lucids in the future so I can learn to summon DCs but I guess that all comes in time, doesn't it?. Your advice has helped me, so thank you again.
