Hi, I have regular lucid dreams. I didnt know what they were at first until I did some research on the web. Basicaly I am aware that Im dreaming but cannot "surface" from nightmares etc.

The dream I had last night I have experienced before but not to such a large degree. What on earth is this? Has anyone else experienced it?

Ok, so I am shopping in the town where I grew up. The town becomes unrecocognisable and I cant find way home. All normal of course but then I experience what I can only call a psychotic experience in my dream. At the end of a street I see the sea in the distance. This isnt my hometown I think. Anyway as I approach the beach the scene changes and it is like an old fashioned 40s dock with men drowning and calling out to me to save them. I find some wood and try to pull a man out but I fall in and my clothes are soaked. I then think to myself now if this really happended when I get back to my normal part of the dream my clothes will be wet. Sure enough, the scene goes back to the normal unrecognisable town and I reach down and I am wet. (its like a lucid dream inside a dream) I then look for a policeman because I want to tell them Im seeing things and going mad. To cut a long dream short, I keep having "episodes" where I find myself in a dangerous situation and keep escaping then coming back to "normal".

What do you think?
