From the depths of the mirror, a corpse gazed back at me. The look in his eyes, as they stared into mine, has never left me.
That's actually something I was curious about. Does lucid dreaming inhibit you from getting the amount of rest you need? It sounds like your brain is pretty active and "wakeful" during lucid dreams.
I don't have a lot of lucid dreams, but I have pretty vivid ones. I've never noticed any ills effects, even when I am motivated enough to wake up during the night to jot my dreams down even though I'd much rather be snoozing. :P
If you're fatigued, it's probabaly more to do with lack of sleep.
i get about 6-8 hours of sleep a day
lately it seems like it's not enough
Your brain is constantly active even if you are not lucid dreaming. Lucid dreaming has no more of a physical effect on you then normal dreaming does, it is after all just a dream you are controlling.Quote:

I use to lucid dream a lot, but I always let my mind have free realm over my dreams ever once in a while since a dream is your mind trying to express itself and its not good to hold those expressions back all the time, or so they say. However I noticed no ill effects on myself. Or the common one is if I became lucid I would just go along with the dream, somethings they turned out to be exciting, like watching a TV show :)
