Thread: Reality Checks

Hi
I'm not sure what sort of reality checks to do because in my dreams I'm a sort of disembodied "presence" so there would be no point in trying to look at my hands. Also, I never see clock/watches or text of any kind in my dreams.

In real life, nothing happens that could be considered out of the ordinary (quite boring really).

Any help or pointers please?

I am much the same.. My life is very routine so not many weird things happen.

I reality check whenever I engage in conversation with someone (or very shortly after so I don't look like an idiot)

That's a good idea, I think I'll try that. Maybe try nipping myself (or the person I'm talking to! LOL!)
Thanks!

From another post of mine:

"Mental reality checks: Question not only how you got into your current situation, but how logical, coherent, and realistic your situation is. Not only that, did you go to sleep? To tell you the truth, it's not that complex. When I ask myself if I'm dreaming, I KNOW."

The rc's are just pure habit for me now..

I always do the nose-plug. Maybe that will help you, you're not required to see anything strange.
