ASK QUESTIONS about lucid dreaming here!

Here you can ask questions about anything related to GENERAL LUCID DREAMING, or request topics you want taught. I will use your questions as a foundation, around which I will construct lessons. Like you guys already know (since you read the Intro thread, right?), I will not waste your time by going over the bare basics. Now that's not to say this is an advanced class, it just isn't a newbies intro to LDing (for that you can check out Zebrah's class).

Well, I don't know if this is a right question to ask; but I'll go ahead and ask it. All of my LD's feel like a memory. Like I just wake up and remember them; like a regular dream. Why is this so?

I have the EXACT same issue. It's really bugging me :/

Is this a recall/awareness thing? If so I'd like to learn a little more about that

Glad to know there's also someone that has this

It's probably something to do with awareness.. I just don't know.

As you become more experienced at lucid dreaming, do the dreams themselves seem longer/ more like real life?

That is my goal! I have experienced a 1 minute long lucid dream that felt exactly like reality and that is what keeps me motivated.
And now I am looking for the perfect stabilisation technique, althought I have tried everything... everything except spinning.
I would like to hear some peoples experience with that.

Is it really that weird? Think about what you did last day, that feels far away in the distance too.
The only difference is that you remember how you walked away from there, in a dream we just wake up. And that feels a little sudden.
But maybe you mean that you wake up and just remember that you have been lucid, then I guess you have to work on your recall.
Or maybe it even has to do with what kind of dream you become lucid in. We dream in non-rem too you know, and I once saw a documentary that non-rem dreams are just feeling like memories and rem-dreams feels like experiences, maybe you are lucid in the non-rem.
