Thread: First Lucid Nightmare?

I remember my first lucid nightmare. In waking life I have higher morals than most people, and I didn't think this would affect my dreams. I did something I'm not going to talk about, and suddenly everyone disappeared, and it became night. Then I saw a person down a corridor, and tried to get to him but he disappeared too. Then a door opened and Slenderman walked out (I'm terrified of him). I woke myself up and decided never to do anything bad in dreams again. It's odd, my subconscious seems to be a kind of law enforcer in my dreams. I once punched someone, and the dream became really annoying, not scary, but not a nice place to be. I got fed up and woke myself up eventually.

ACaddict, I don't think it was your subconscious that changed the dream but it was yourself. Like when you're in a scary situation in a lucid dream you just can "spread love" and it will turn into something pleasurable, so maybe because of your negative feelings the dreams became scary or annoying. Just a theory ofc.

Thanks for your opinion Oceandrop, you're probably right. I just jumped to the conclusion that it was my subconscious and not me because I didn't feel bad about it at the time. It's just a dream, it doesn't matter I thought at the time.

Oh, I understand the urge to wake up. But next time try to tell them that you love them and watch them change into cute kittens.

Just recently, I was talking to a guy and I sensed that he is about to morph into something scary. (This was most likely because I didn't like the place and I was uneasy, so dream obliged and was gonna make it really scary for me). I quickly told him that he is a nice guy and the morphing had stopped. He became friendly, we held hands and flew off into the sunset...

The dream is formed by your thoughts and feelings. If you scared, it will make it scary. Remember this thought, and pretty soon you will be able to influence even your non-lucids, at least sometimes.

In one of my non-lucids, I was suppose to catch this scary animal that I'm terrified of in WL. I looked at it and said "but that's not [insert your scary animal]. And I watched it morph into a cute hedgehog.

I didn't knew that until now. I'll definitely keep that in mind, it sounds quite essential. Thanks for the useful information.

Thanks gab, i will definitely keep that in my mind
