Hi,

Had only the second and most extraordinary LD of my life recently. *Promted me to get online and find out more about this. *I recently found that SP is a real symptom and not just me being mental or something. *I have frequent cases of SP, often quite distressing, but since i found out more about it i try to just ride it out.

Anyway, never knew about the connection between the two, very interesting

My Question to you regards *waking up from Lucid dreams. *This morning in the midst of a LD i heard my house phone ringing in the background. *It was a call i was expecting, and i knew this while dreaming. *I tried waking myself up by jumping in front of oncoming traffic! -didn't work. *I woke *when the person called my mobile next *to me, and confirmed they had been ringing my house phone for ages.

How can I wake myself up???

Cheers
Hello there jaws104, & welcome to the forum!
Great work on conquering your fear of SP!! Keep it up!!
I wouldn't try to wake up from one, unless I really had to. I wouldn't even answer the phone yesterday afternoon, while I was napping!! To wake yourself up, yell for yourself to wake up, & try to imagine yourself in bed. Most of the time, it works, but you could end up in a FA!!
Try it though!!
