Thread: Lucid again but with no powers!

You answered your own question. It is all about believing in yourself.
Keep practicing and believe! You will get better at it, I promise.

My LD's are getting better and better. Last night, after only just over 2 hours of sleep, I had an LD. I span on the spot when it started fading and actually felt dizzy but found myself still in a dream. This time in my brothers bedroom and i was about to climb out of his window to fly when he suddenly said "What you doing? You're not dreaming you know!". The dream was very very real and I said I must be I just came out of the last dream and now I am here. After a bit, i really started to think I was awake which is a scary thought at the time!

Then I remembered the RC by looking at a digital clock. I said to him to look at the clock on his video and the digits were all over the place - it wasnt even displaying a readable time. And with that I knew myself I was dreaming, proceeded to climb out of the window and flew around a bit.

First time I have ever used an RC in a dream !

What would of done if you had forgotten the RC? xD...What if you were awake...Your brother would think you were crazy..xD

if you dont know wheather you are awake or not after about 10 seconds you are probably dreaming.

Who knows what I would have done if I'd forgotten it. I'd have probably tried flying around the room first to be safe. But I was lucid and i've never been told i'm actually awake before in a dream so an RC seemed logical.

You know, recently during my normal waking life, i've been putting into place a thought, every time I come across an obstacle - well not so much of an obstacle, but a situation and it works because i've found i do this in my dreams which triggers an LD. Eg - If I was walking and needed to climb over something, I'd imagine i would fly over it. If i needed to get across the road before the car came past, i'd imagine using superspeed to get across. If I am looking for someone in a crowded place (usually clubs), i'd imagine X-Ray or zooming vision. All these thoughts are only split second but i've found I do it in dreams and it triggers LDs.

In fact the once it didnt work though - I did it in a dream which seemed very real. I had to jump over a small wall and i thought "Ha! Imagine if this was a dream! I'd take off flying" When I woke up I was like "Oh man!"

hey man ive got the same kinda non power thing going on when i become lucid too

when im lucid its like im not thinking straight because im not aware enough to think to myself "what to i want to try now that im lucid"

instead

i just do things without taking the time to think

hopefully ill get better

well pcmsurf, i use to have those kinds of "Lucid Dreams" intill i realized that they were just really vivid dreams. maybe that's what ur expirerencing...

yeah ive only had about 15 short lds


last night was my longest one and i forgot alot of it cuz i was so tired after waking up from it that i went back to sleep
