small]Well,I am sure that everyone has dream when they sleep.When we dreaming,we can't control our action right?Don't you think so?What i mean is,your body just act and you just follow it.It is something that we cannot control.Hovewer lucid dream is diferrent.Lucid dream is known as consious dream.It means a dream in which the person is aware that he or she is dreaming while the dream is in progress.Ya,i know its complicated to understand.Hmm..let just say you are dreaming,and you know that you are actually dreaming in your dream.For best understanding,check this out http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lucid_dream.
So my question is have you guys have this lucid dreams before?I,myself did.I don't know how but i just know that i am in the dream.When i know that i was in the dream,i can do anything i want because it is just a dream.I can simply destroy anything without being captured since it is a dream ...hahaha...so fun.Then...i can even breath when i was under the water.I remember once when i dream that i fell in to the sea and i have difficulties in breathing.The feeling was so real...i gasp for oxygen but i can as i was drowning.Then something come across my mind. Wait i am in the dream(don't ask me how i know,i just know,even i don't have idea how i know it)So i quickly calm down and start to breath in the water because i know i can breath in the water in my dream.So,i did overcome that terrible situation.I finally can breath in the water and i feel so much relieved and relaxed ...then i woke up from my dream.It really help much [/small] when i know i am actually in my dream.How bout you guys?[

2.This is my second question for those who experience lucid dreams..Do you guys feel tired afer waking up from lucid dream.Sometimes i found myself very tired once i woke up from lucid dreaming cause i did many things in my dreams...How bput you guys..do you get tired?

3.Another question..well there are times when i cried in my dreams.I cried in my dreams..i felt the tears.It was so real but when i woke up..there were no sign of tears at all.Well,normally people cried in the dream and they will too when they woke up from the dream.So is it just me or anyone of you have the same situation like me?

Well you're pretty lucky...

That would be a rather amazing experiencing I'm sure, immensely fun and revitalising, I've never had one sadly... but if I did I probably wouldn't want to wake up. It's probably for the best that they don't happen too often to lots of people as people would probably end up disliking reality because your dreams would be so much better, thus causing reclusiveness... I dunno... but yeah, you're a lucky person to be able to experience them. Do you find that you prefer the dream world to reality at all?

I've actually tried to lucid dream before while trying to sleep, but I've yet to be successful. I usually wind up doing it in the minutes before I awake, though... I seem to be doing it more often than not nowadays.

It kinda pisses me off how (I don't know if it's just me) but when you fall asleep, you don't know you've fallen asleep. Everything is dark and quiet until a dream starts, but to me I never know. I've apparently slept walked before and the next morning my sister asks me "do you remember doing etc etc etc" and I'm like "no" and it creeped me out.

I want to experience a lucid dream too

I have experienced it once before,
But that time I was so young,
I can't remember what happen in it.
But I don't mind having another!

I have experienced it too.

I don't remember the details but it happened around 7 years ago if I remember correctly.

Ad also, I know when I'm having a nightmare, and I can make myself wake up from it if it gets too bad.

Well...my dream is quite different.Hmm...it is a fantasy world in my dream.You know where you can fly,castle, you know completely different from the reality.So
hmm...i just don't compare whether i love the dream world or the reality.To me...it
is a competely different world

I can also do it, and I didn't realize it was special or called Lucid dreaming till I was told not too long ago when I was discussing it with my boyfriend. I do it almost every night and have been able to since I was pretty young. =/

I know when I'm having a nightmare, and I can make myself wake up from it if it gets too bad. I remember this time I realized I was in a dream, and thought to myself "I wonder if I can grab something from this dream and wake up with it in my hands" So I grabbed something, I don't remember what, and made myself wake up. Blah it didn't work of course. >xD

I thought it was normal and everyone could do it. o_O I wonder if this has anything to do with the fact I have reoccurring dreams as well. ~_~

Anyway.. It's pretty cool. ;P

I'm only very rarely able to do this. Most of the time, I can't realize it's a dream until after the fact, which isn't any good. I have had one or two though where I was able to.

But yeah, Bernouli was pretty shocked when I told her most people couldn't do it. =P

I just knew that kind of dreams are calling Lucid dreams! ^^"
In fact, i experienced some dreams like that.I felt the hit -_- , and i couldn't breath in a foggy weather and i was trying to breathe O.o and i remember one of my dreams was like real and when i woke up i realized it was just a dream.

Lucid dreaming is realizing you're dreaming whilst it's happening, NOT after you wake up, barca. =P

hmm...well..ya sure.Sometimes when i was having nightmare,i tried to wake up myself.I don't grab something, but i stuggle with myself.Keep calling myself to wake up.It was so difficult to wake up.ARRR.. know i'm half awaken at that time,but i just
stuck in that dream and can hardly control my body(not the body in dream).When i finally wake up from the dream,i am so tired.I think this has nothing to do with the fact whether you have reoccurring dreams because i don't have reoccurring dreams.

I've never experienced it! You're so lucky. Hell, I can't remember my normal dreams.

I believe you are referring to 'sleep paralysis'. I don't know any detail about sleep paralysis, but it seems that people experiencing this (for example, myself) will have some kind of seizures during your sleep and the feeling of unable to breathe or even move normally why realizing that everything is just a dream. I've experienced this one too many during the past half year.

There's a page in Wikipedia for this: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sleep_paralysis

Yup, I can control my dream (*mwahahah*) When I almost got killed in my dream then I get something like, ...It's my dream so why should I die
And then the almighty me kicks in and says: STOP
And then I get control and kick some butt of the bad guys. lol(_/)..
