Lucid Dreaming can help with your fears?

[A.Bit.Crazy]

Ok...this thread is asking : Can Lucid-Dreaming help you overcome your fears? Example : 1) I used to be terrified of heights..in 99% of my Lucid Dreams I fly..it's what i'm best at..and I enjoy doing it Now..In reality..I can go as high as I want..I can go on dropzone at Canada's wonderland and looks down at the houses 300 feet below me..I can climb trees to the very tip without the fear of falling. Example : 2) In another dream.I was riding my skateboard ontop of a moving train (As in the movies) I jumped off the train,and landed perfectly on my skateboard,and rode away.Shortly after i bombed a Mt.Everest sized hill..and I was going fast! Now..in reality..I allways bomb hills on my skateboard..I'll do my tricks faster then before just to get that adrenaline rush I had in the dream!..I used to be scared of going to fast on my board..now I don't care! So..my question again is : Can Lucid-Dreaming help you overcome your fears? Thanks

Maybe, but in lucid dreams you know that you are safe no matter what happens (unless you are having a lucid nightmare) so you can jump off tall buildings and stuff . But in reality you know ur gunna die if you fall off a tall building.

It depends on how you think about things, if it will. It CAN help in SOME cases, but not all. (eg.: Arachnophobia will be cured) But if you're simply scared of getting hurt when you try something ''dangerous'', that won't get cured THAT easily for some, but for some others, it will.
