Is this true? Do people really end up in a LD for what feels truly like hours at a time?
My second newbie fear/question is:
Does anyone have any trouble waking up out of a Lucid dream?
Does anyone think of the wrong things and have a bad Lucid Dream or I.E. bad "trip"
Any other possible bad side affects like depersonalisation or something off the wall?
-Thx-

Check out my introduction in the newbie section![/b]

I have only had one lucid dream but I may be of help.
I read in "exploring the world of lucid dreaming" that time does pass almost the same in a lucid as real life. Laberge tested this and he figured 10 seconds of real time was about 8 seconds in lucid (correct me if im wrong).
I woke up too easily from my LD, but i think this is because I wasnt tired to begin with. I would like to have stayed lucid longer.
I cant help you on your other questions, sorry
