Thread: This is getting old.

The same thing happend to me from age 7 to 11 about. But my recurring dream was i was at school and i would turn a corner to get something and a wolf would walk up drag me away and start eating me. My screams turned to whispers and my movements became weak, the way i got rid of this was just from graduating from the elementary school and eventually when more important things came along i completely forgot about it. Now that i am saying this though i bet that the dream will happen again and when it does ill be ready i will just imagine a gun or knife and shoot it.
I hope i helped!

I used to have recurring seasonal nightmares of skiing out of control. They were seasonal because I would have these nightmares in wintertime, ski season. In my nightmares I was skiing at very high speed and could not stop and would not slow down no matter whether I went downhill or uphill or up or down stairs. The reason why I am saying this is that I can relate to recurring nightmares: they suck. Sometimes a nightmare gets stuck in one's head, I guess.

Back then I did not know about lucid dreaming yet, and my skiing nightmares stopped at some point in my life, and I don't remember when and why. If I still had recurring nightmares, I would try to fight them with lucid dreaming. I think lucid dreaming was made for recurring nightmares: the perfect antidote. I know you too are persuing LDing, and I wish you luck with becoming lucid during one of these nightmares. If I were you, I would probably then ask one of the kidnappers why I am dreaming of this. Then tell them firmly that I expect these nightmares to stop now. Oh, and if you like, I suppose you could fight those kidnappers and get revenge for all the trouble they have caused you over the years. Actually, if I still had recurring nightmares, I would probably try to incubate them, instead of hoping to avoid the nightmare, think about it and plan ahead that I expect to have my recurring nightmare now, but on my terms this time!

I smiled the whole time I read this. Unfortunately this is the day AFTER a lucid dream, so I guess I'll have to wait for another one. Or I could try WILDing, but that's unlikely today. Anyways, thanks for that, and I will try to confront it in my next lucid dream. Come at me!

Thanks for all your help everyone.

Sweet dreams.
