Alrighty, then. |

Hey MBakke, Congratulations on your newfound venture into lucid dreaming! It sounds like you are very talented for being a newbie. |
|
Emotions in dreams are EXTREMELY intense, way more intense than in waking life, at least they are for me. I'm guessing that's the case with you too. Emotional regulation, like dreamhigh said, could really help you out. You don't take any supplements to sleep/dream, do you? If so, those could be causing the nightmares, as things like melatonin can make your dreams waaay more vivid than usual. |

Man, it really does suck. I actually agree with XeL. A psychologist would be advicable. I don't know about the weird thing on your penis, but I'd DEFINITELY go to a doctor about it (you probably already have). I doubt it has anything to do with the lucid dreams. |
|
Thanks for replies The penis was only in the dream. My penis does not grow trees. |

Hahaha. I know this is a somewhat serious thread trying to find help for an individual, but |

I am the DREAMJUMPER
I once looked into a dream mirror, the only difference was my head was a little bit bigger. I was even wearing the same shirt I went to bed in. |

We are only truly free in our dreams.

hope this gets better for you. i kinda of know what this is like, one time i saw homer simpson in my dream and i freaked out... i couldnt fall asleep for 3 hours i was so scared. the next day i remembered the shaking, sweat, and my heart poinding and thought "wtf homer simpson isnt scary..." maybe brains just release a chemical for fear for no reason. |

Yup, psychologist is best option. Other than that, it seems like your fear of LDing is part of the problem, I would think, being positive towards LDing would help out some, I would recomend fighting the monster, but don't know if you like that kind of thing... talking with it? Be-friend it? Whatever floats your boat. |
|
Well, I had reaccuring dreams that I knew I was dreaming, but I'd rather just want to get out of it. Before you go to sleep, try not to even mention to yourself "I'm afraid to go to sleep, because of _____." But, rather put your mind on something that interests you, something you like, or someone. Pleasent thoughts usually bring pleasent dreams, especially for me. If it is lucid, than you should know you can do almost anything you want. If you can't make things disappear, than try turning them into something else, or get a magician to do it for you. I heard if you spin, the whole dream setting changes, so try that and see if it works |
|
No, actually, I keep hearing that I am afraid of LDing, but, no, not really. I have no idea why my reflection wasn't imagined correctly, maybe because I spotted the mirror so fast? I don't know. It's not about a monster, it's about the visuals, like you don't want to watch a live beheading. Watching it again won't really make it any better. It might not be like that in this case, though, but I haven't encountered any mirror to look in after this. |
|
So you simply want a different scenario? If you are lucid, why not teleport, fly away, go on a jet, wake up, change the dream, etc? Whenver I see something I don't like in a LD, simply leave or kill it. |
|
This wouldn't be a case where this would work. I didn't need to change the scene to get rid of the ugly reflection, I just needed to close my eyes and run away, done, and get on with my dream. But if I encounter it again, I will surely morph it into a regular me and maybe talk to my reflection. |

Hey. |

I haven't been lucid when looking at a mirror, but i do recall just in a dream i did look. Now i have seen many things in my life though im not that old, scary movies barely frighten me as i know all the effects. When i looked i didn't see as much distortion as expected.. I had read that not to look in a mirror, obviously this was not deliberate as as i was lucid. Instead i saw darkness upon my face, as if i had seen my "dark side" the darkness spread around my face to show a face as if in anguish and excruciating pain. Imagine you go up to a real life mirror, then look at it and look at what you may call an imperfection.. (i.e pimple, double chin, dimples etc.) Now try tripling that, whilst your emotions/feeling change towards this imperfection. It seemed the dark, or evil side of me had been the imperfection and everything had been in pain. I cannot get the picture in my head clearly.. But in the days on, i thought about it a lot and for some reason started being really nice.. Now i am not as conscious about it but if i ever get a lucid dream stable enough, i WILL go to a mirror. |

I have this fear of lucid dreaming. I haven't gotten them regularly yet, but I have OCD. In a world in which things I imagine can come to life, I can imagine getting horrible OCD and telling myself "don't make that grudge character appear" or something, and it appearing because I thought about it. I have experienced something similar during OBEs, a few years ago, in which I imagine some horrible pain occurring, and actually feeling it, as far as the part of my brain that senses pain is concerned. |
|
Toughen up, until you do, you'll just be scared. |
|
hi im gonna get straight to the point here |
|
Last time I looked into a dream mirror, my reflection made faces at me. I called a mirror repair man to fix it, thinking the mirror was broken. |
|
I had lucid dreams every without fail. Which I wish I cld stop it it's taking up my sleeping restin time. I always woke up tired, and headache when interrupted. However im sOmehow different than you in this way that my dream is always in a form of themes. There were somethings I had to figure out myself, there's always an objective fOr my dreams and therefore there's always a need to make decisions(reasonable ones due to some kind of 'dreams order' present) and so it always felt like as if I never really slept before on any night. I'm so tired of lucid dreams..and yet. Somehow I felt that it's sth necessary. Lol I jus needed a good night rest, but somehow my dreams won't let me off. Making me super super tired and getting headaches when wakin. I therefore wld appreciate ideas. Thx |
