      You say it seemed like 30 days. Again, I think that this is one of those things like in the movies where the person switches off the light to go to bed, it's dark for a second, then they yawn and get up. Really you were only sleeping for eight hours, and that's how long the dream lasted. Sometimes our perception of time in dreams can be screwy, but it doesn't change real time.

      Somehow i don&#39;t believe that&#39;s exactly it. Well the example anyway . I do agree on time not changing however.

      Thanks for you&#39;re time and help .

      Not sure what to think of this, but unlike some people here, I&#39;ve already had experiences that showed me that reallity is not as linear as we think. So... If it really happened to you, my best guess is that you&#39;ve been in some alternate reality. Lucid dreaming for so long probably opens doors in your mind for different realities, but that&#39;s a matter of belief.

      If you&#39;re making the whole story up, worse for yourself, although I don&#39;t see the point. I do understand confusion about facts if it really happened to you. If I spent about a month in an alternate reality I&#39;d probably not be sure where I&#39;d been... Or what I did there... Or whatever it was that happened. Also, your mind could have blocked details of the experience, do you remember the details, conversations, getting boring at work every day?

      Well about 2 friends of mine in my ro server had already mentioned the possibilities of en alternate reality so far its one of the few theories on my list.

      And as for the experience to me anyway it is something i would never forget i do remember quite a few conversations as much as anybody else would lol .

      As for work and all well have you ever had the experience that you where completely full of energy .
      Say like en unknown surge of energy and happiness invading you body and the feeling that you just wana run like crazy(Well that is how i see that feeling as. ). Anyway after a few days i had lightened up and i was tremendously happy that i could get a new world experience out of this you know like a new shot at independence.

      And i pretty much loved my job but i guess that&#39;s just me XD.

      And as for details well sure i would not remember all the details .

      But then again i guess that would apply to everyone irl .

      I remember my apartment completely that&#39;s for sure i have been living in it for 30 days after all XD.


      Well i don&#39;t know if i answered what you wanted to know basically but thanks for posting and applying you&#39;re theory on this , helps a lot.

      Also if i didn&#39;t answer you&#39;re questions how ya wanted them please feel free to reply again and tell me or if you want to ask more questions.

      Thank you for you&#39;re time and patience.

      If it wasn't for the fact that you would have had to do a bit of research for some of that sutff, I'd consider that it could be a fake. One thing you never specified, though, is whether or not you at least tried to learn some Japanese while you were there. I can't understand why you wouldn't even try learning some Japanese if you could possibly have been stuck in Japan forever.

      Now about that "distortion" you saw. Going by the alternate reality idea, the distortion must have been a sort of gateway, meaning it's safe to assume your mind accidentally collided with some sort of dimensional anomally or something. You could probably think of it as a sphere; you collided with one side (the distortion you saw), consciously passed through it and entered it, then (assuming it was moving through space or something) by the time it had moved far enough for your dream body to reach the other side of the sphere (which could have taken anywhere from an instant to a little less than the time in which you were asleep in our reality) 30 days had already passed in that reality, at which point all you had to do was consciously pass through the other side in order to leave. If this idea is true, which I highly doubt, then I only have one question about it: how can I find that thing? Because I wouldn't mind being able to live in another country for a month or so while having next to no time actually passing irl. And as a bonus, I could freak people out when I finally left by speaking the parts of the language I had learned over there.

      That's a pretty good theory thanks XD.

      Oh yes sorry if i didn't specify about trying to learn the language this is my first time actually posting dream experiences on the forum i can tend to leave out some details.

      Well i did try to learn a bit i didn't get much knowledge out of it but it did leave me motivated to learn the language even more.

      Thanks a lot for you're idea on this i appreciate it greatly .

      If you have any more theories don't hesitate .

      As i have once told marvo about a day or so ago.

      If i ever do learn how it works i will be sure to post all the details on the forum .

      I know a few may be skeptical about this but oh well it's up to them to try or not at that time.

      Anyway thanks again .

      I really don't know if your telling the truth

      But i am sure that Lucid dreaming can sometimes be connected to astral travel
      Ther is more between heaven and earth,and the human mind and spirit is powerful.

      One time i fell aslleep in the bus to school...then i suddenly saw myself sleeping in the bus,i was hovering above my body..when i realised it i got sucked back into my body with force..

      Well im sure there was no reason for me to die ther or sumtin lol so somehow i think the sleeping process that time provoked an astral travel thingy.

      I'm not sure ofcourse..but it did seem damn real

      Usually in LD i am never fully 100 &#37; aware.

      Well as for me telling the truth or not it's pretty much you're choice after all this is the inner workings of my mind it's a private place i can't prove it essentially all i can do it post what happened to me and that is it.

      Anyway yea it is you're choice .

      However that does sound like a cool experience man pretty awesome indeed.

      Thanks for you're take on this all i appreciate it.

      Don't be shy feel free to reply again .

      That is a very fascinating story..though I am still very skeptical whenever it is true or not. The problem is how could you possibly prove this to anybody but yourself. Perhaps you could write sort of a diary of each day. Even with this would it be possible to recreate the experince?

      You speak the truth in many ways nazzul this is my mind there is no proof to be given but my words.

      It all depends on you in the end if you wish to believe or not there is nothing i can do to change that.

      but here let me give a small example this site has been here for quite a while but think of this .

      A lot of people do lucid dream from a young age but don't know what it is called nor the full possibilities of this either .

      Now say for example when this site goes up, Others will see this and will begin thinking of the possibilities they will read the site in search of knowledge and experience of others and then desire themselves to try it.
      What i am saying is , in my opinion lucid dreaming still has potential possibilities that are not even unlocked yet with even more time who knows what could happen but also , It does have something to do with people trusting other peoples words on this , it ain't something ya can show off on television after all.

      Well anyway that about does it for my explanation .
      Thanks for posting by the way appreciate it.
      If you have any theories don't be shy post away i look forward to you're next reply . : P

      Theories so far Along with the number of people who suggested it to me pm wise or on the topic itself, on my msn or on my ro server : P.

      Other dimension theory ( 34 people )
      Possession of someone else's body ( 1 person) (also proven to be very unlikely )
      Astral projection theory (17 people)
      Dream self manifesting into existence elsewhere theory (3 people)
      Whole new level of dreaming and could have been trapped in that dream theory ( 6 people )
      Dream causing false memories to be implanted theory ( 4 people )

      That's about it for now unless i forgot a theory then i apologise .

      Have you had any LDs lately? If so, you could try to find the portal again. I don't mean for you to enter it, just try to find it cause if it gets you to another dimension it can be dangerous to do it again as you might not be as lucky... If the portal is in your dreams ever again then it means it's always available to you and you could explore a little more if you had the guts to do so... I wouldn't, though...
      Also, that might prove that might prove that it was just a addition to your dreams, since it was now common for it to happen...

      Let's see one of my favorites would have to have been the
      Asakusa Sensoji Temple

      Then the rest would be that i remember clearly anyway would be .
      Tokyo Tower
      The imperial palace (didn't see much of the place i did check the east garden)
      I did go to a museum with a lot of ship models and such that place was pretty breath taking .
      And one more place would be akihabara so many electronic shops, prices are a little scary however.

      Yes those do seem the most logical .

      Well thanks for the posts i look forward to more thank you very much for the help and questions asked so far : ) .

      Astral projection? Alternate dimensions? Perhaps I'm on the wrong forum...

      Let's assume you aren't lying (not that I think you are, simply because other people have suggested as much). The first thing that jumps out to me is you said it felt like 30 days. This implies to me that you weren't consciously living every second of every day, all you are aware of is that a good deal of time passed in your dream. I've had occurrences in the past where I was lucid with control, and then I tried doing something in the dream which caused me to lose control. Since control in dreams is a matter of belief, a lot of times if you go somewhere where you have doubt that you're still in control, you will lose that control.

      I think you had a very bizarre dream, and this coupled with a few psycological principles caused you to draw the conclusions you're now arriving at.

      More importantly, I'm amazed at how many people actually believe in astral projection and traveling to parallel universes. We used to believe in incubi and sucubi until science discovered sleep paralysis. Don't take what you saw when you were in an altered state of consciousness as truth. Logical thought will debunk most instances of superstition. No matter how weird your dream was or how weird it seemed, it was a dream. Let's not send ourselves back to the dark ages by drawing rash assumptions without use of science.

      Yes i am quite aware of those facts also the felt part was due to my nervousness and etc as this was the first time writing an experience on forum when i wrote felt it was due to many factors that could have simulated 30 days and such don't know if i am explaining myself right there anyway i am already aware of the scientific facts me and marvo talk a lot of this .

      He actually gave me the idea of trying to form the distortion manually and see if it would have the same effect in which i will try soon enough.

      Anyway don't know if i explained myself well there but hope you understood .

      Thanks for the help so far as well marvo i appreciate it a lot .

      No problems. It's a hot topic, with extended dreams and so, and even though I doubt it possible to do on purpose, I still want to research it, since if DreamViews could figure out some genius method, to get 30 days long lucid-dreams, we might become quite known around the lucid-dreaming and dreaming world in general

      What was the distortion like? I mean what kind of distortion was it. I know this stuff may sound crazy to people, because the human mind almost doesn't want to believe things that are so out of the ordinary like this, and I might sound crazy too to all the other people, but whose to say it's not real? everyone's saying it's fake, but until you can't prove that it's fake, why tell everyone it is. I'm gonna give u the benefit of the doubt because I know what it's like to not have people understand you when you try to tell them about something that's not so ordinary

      And it would also be fun as hell! You could do pretty much everything in just one dream! I think I would be tired of lucid dreaming after a few dreams, though...

      Thanks for the help so far as well marvo i appreciate it a lot .
      you seem fake. Your attitude while typing just seems like you are trying to put on a show. Don't get me wrong, it is definately a good story, but the way you post just doesn't sit right w/ me.

      I believe that we can have really long dreams, but definately not a continuous 30 days. If this story is true then I definately think it was a insanely vivid lucid. I definately do not believe the alternate reality stuff.

      How old are you?

      wow billybob_001, you must be REALLY offended about this to practically write a REPORT on how you dont believe this. I think just saying "it's impossible, i think it's fake" would do, but you really went all out on that one

      For everyone who doesn't believe Namcosis' story, that's up to you. It's like he said, he has no way of proving it to you unless you initiate a shared dream with him and he uses it to instantly transmit all his memories of the even to you (I'm sure a shared dream would enable advanced forms of telepathy like that). But I'd just like to remind all of you not to flat out disbelieve the story, but just to remain skeptical until you can logically decide whether or not he's telling the truth. And by skeptical I don't mean think he must be lying, but rather to think that he might be telling the truth, and at the same time think he might be lying. After all, if people thought that the explorers who said the world was round were lying, then the world wouldn't be the way it is right now, would it? But they didn't call them liers, they sent out more explorers to confirm it and find out more about the far away lands, and eventually even began colonizing them. Now we are the explorers, and we therefore have to remain open to what we and others find out and experience. Namcosis is saying he stumbled upon something that possibly no one else has ever experience before, so now we have to just have trust that it's there try to reach that place ourselves. Who knows, some day people may be learning about us, and how we learned so many things about dreams and what they are capable of.

      Well, I guess I'll leave it at that for now. I'd appreciate any comments on it.


      Edit: Just out of curiosity, if you could create one of those distortions at will and control where it would send you and the length of time you'd be stuck there once and only once, where would you go? Would you go to a fantasy world created by your mind (I have at least one tucked away in there), or would you go to one created by someone else, such as one in a book or something? Or would travel back in time to witness some great historical event, or even a week forward in time to see next weeks lottery numbers? That last idea seems like a waste to me, but it'd definitely be accurate. I personally would either pick Middle Earth from The Lord of the Rings or one of my fantasy worlds, but that's just me.
