Hello everyone,

My situation is long... but, I'll attempt to keep it brief. I'm not sure what I have is lucid dreaming. When I dream I have the ability to control my dream, change what I don't like and if I don't like what happened, I can rewind the dream and try again. Now, my sister has the same thing. She would also (like myself) wake up completely tired and unrested. According to what she was told, a part of her brain that should be resting during sleep, is working while she's resting. In theory, I guess this means that would explain while she's was so tired in the morning. She was told this wasn't normal. And, that she now takes something that puts her into a correct state of sleeping. I have the exact same symptoms. Is what I've described, lucid dreaming? If so, are there other people out there, that have had negative reactions to lucid dreaming? If so, did medication help?

Thanks for all your help.

Danielle
