[someguy]

firstly hi!!!! yes, im new here (how exciting). um i haven't had a LD yet but havn't realy been trying for that long a time so.... but when im dreaming i have noticed i always dream in the 3rd person, always and just wanted to know if this was normal?????

[TygrHawk]

Welcome! I've never dreamt in 3rd person (that I can remember), but a lot of other people say they do often, so I'd say it's normal for you. Might be kind of tough to have a controlled LD that way, though.

I happen to dream in a 1st person that switches to 3rd person back and fowarth, havn't really figured out why i do and what makes me change perspective i just happen to do it lol.

[someguy]

ok i think most people dream in the first person. but it is still possible for me to ld in the 3rd person right???? i hope so.....

Dont worry about it. In mydreams I alwys see them from 3rd and 1st person views at the same time. I dont knwo how to desribe it, my mind can just have both memories at the same times fomr the 2 views.

[Toefur]

I can't tell what perspective I dream in...

I dont knwo how to desribe it, my mind can just have both memories at the same times fomr the 2 views. this is what my dreams are mostly like. usually when i can see bodies of people, i.e. arms and legs, including my own, i am in 3rd person mode. i dont remeber seeing my own hands and feet often. i usually find my self felling like im in the corner watching everyhting but, i can still hear and feel like im in the middle of the action, sort of like barbizzle both at once.

Hi and welcome someguy</span> I have had many dreams in the third person. None of which were lucid though. This is a very interesting question. <span style="color:green">Maybe you can try to begin to incubate dreams by thinking of them before you go to sleep. And when you do try to picture yourself as if you were the main character. Or maybe you can use similar techniques but apply "third person to it". For example. One would normally go to bed repeating the phrase something similar to > I am going to remember to recognize when I am dreaming. You on the other hand could say that you will remember next time I see a certain dream sign or character. It would not matter then what perspective you are looking at it from. Rather the mental perspective.

Most of the time I dream in first person, But some times in dreams It will switch back and forth. And I was just thinking, if you dream in 3'rd person, then thats a pretty darn good dream sign!

I will often dream both in the third and first person, there is no 'normal' with dreaming everyone has their own unique experience. Anyways.. Welcome!

And I was just thinking, if you dream in 3'rd person, then thats a pretty darn good dream sign! o yeah i never thought of it like that. thanks for all your help anyways. Last night i went to bed telling myself to dream in the first person and remember it. and for a couple of "scenes" of the dream i was i first person. but if dosn't matter then......

More often than not I dream in 3rd person (and one of my very first, if not the first, posts was about that). I've also found that on the times I did LD, I was always in 3rd person at some point. I like to call it my camera-view because it seems more like I'm a spectator of others character's actions. Welcome to DV I'm sure you'll have an LD any time. Just keep at it! -Amé

[someguy]

yay thats good to know!!!, im not alone

[tboothby]

I find that in most of my dream I switch between 3rd and 1st person views.... has anyone ever had a "2nd" person view (eg: look at yourself as someone else??) Interestingly most of the time I find that I start in 3rd person and switch into 1st person later on...

[willthepathfinder]

You'll have to forgive me, I'm beyond newbie, I'm a newbie virgin if you will. As to your coment, Yes I switch views all the time and have always wondered what the hell that was all about. I will be mayself talking to someone and then morph into them talking to what was once myself! It's an unusual expirence.
