I haven't tried to lucid dream many times, but in all my previous dreams of my relatively short life, I am unable to control myself in the dream. It's that simple, almost like I'm watching but not doing. All the people I've spoken with act as though they can just lift their hands in a dream and do a reality check.

You can't do that if you can't move yourself.
Am I normal? Can you overcome this?

And the ultimate question

Is this post in the right section?!
