Thread: Obviously, Im New.

Hi Theauto,

Yup, lucid dreaming can help with nightmares and recurring bad dreams. While it would help to know a little more about what exactly you're dreaming about,, the main "cure" to the nightmare is to embrace whatever it is that's tormenting you, as opposed to fleeing or even fighting it.

This is why becoming lucid is helpful, because knowing you're in a dream will help give you the courage to stop and interact with the "monster". Once you come to terms with the monster, you'll no longer have a fear of it.

basically...

i die.

or watch people die.

or kill people.

Well this means that you have a deffinate dream sign.

If you can somehow remember that whenever somone dies your dreaming you will be golden.

Maybe you get meditate on the fact that when you have a nightmare you will realize its a dream.

Possible hypnosis, or autosuggestion.

If you could train your mind to realize this as a dream sign your golden.

Especially if you have these dreams everynight.


-->I dont really have any dream signs so im not telling you this from experiance, only from reading.

Death - that sounds like a symbolism thing that's more than likely caused by something happening in your life. Stress, a change of lifestyle, or maybe even something good (like a new lover or something).

If the former, you need to figure out what it is that's going on in your life and change it. If the latter, you're likely very affraid of losing whatever it is you have. Or maybe a bit insecure about being able to keep it?

never really thought of it that way...

thanks to BOTH of you, ill work on this stuff.

Hey, welcome to the forums theautomatic, first off, you aint crazy because you have nightmares, in fact your in a very good position to be to have lucid dreams, you'll find that nightmares are more realistic and your more aware within them so it should hopefully be easier to induce them, it can definately help you if you plan to get rid of them, you can face your nightmares head on within a lucid dream and win, anyways i hope you can overcome all this through lucid dreaming, good luck my friend
