Hey, I'm Nicole. I'm very worried, because I never not lucid dream. I've always dreamt consciously, ever since I was little, and rarely have unconscious dreams. I had no clue that people didn't normally dream lucidly, so I'm very concerned. What does this mean? I always thought it was a "cool thing I could do", controlling my dreams like I do. I can do whatever I want in my dreams; I've always been the author. But as I've delved more into research, I've realized it's rarer than I'd first believed. Please help me! I had no idea it was considered difficult or unnatural.

I also have very vivid realistic dreams. My dreams are usually things that could possibly happen in real life; it's never like I've become a fairy and I'm suddenly flying winglessly. Actually, I often confuse what occurs in dreams to what happens in reality. This results in a dilemma sometimes.

Thank you so much, and I really do hope to become a good part of this forum. Dreams interest me tremendously.
