Hello everyone. It's very fun reading about everyone's dreams.

I'd like to start of by noting that I've never trained for Lucid dreams, though I have read about it to some extent.

When I was a kid, my parents told me I had night terrors since I sometimes talked, screamed or even walked while I was sleeping. I don't recall all of mine dreams as a kid but I know they weren't all bad.

When I got older, I got more control over my dreams and an ability to know where in real life certain environments, certain faces and even certain emotions came from.

These dreams aren't exactly the best. I do enjoy them. I enjoy the surrealistic feel, enjoy flying or eating giant meatball with my grandpa just after I turned into a cat by touching water or seeing bizarre things. But it's a real strain in my real life. When I wake up after having a dream my head will be pounding for a while.

My question is this, I don't have control over the dream, but it doesn't control me. I'm aware of my own actions, the people around me. I can go where I want, talk to whoever I want and to some degree, I can manipulate people to do what I want. But I rarely aware that I'm dreaming. If that happens, I either die and wake up for a second or everything changes. I move to a completely new environment, with new people and new problems.


It doesn't feel like a Lucid dream... So what is it? They do happen every night, even if sometimes they are very brief.
