Have you ever had a "lucid dream"?

Had one just the other night; the aspects of the dream were weird and "dreamlike"; I was at a fancy restaurant with some of the actors from "Private Practice" and for some other reason comics/magicians Penn and Teller were there and I started running around jumping on tables and starting a food fight yelling; "Come on, guys! It's just a dream! We can do whatever we want!"

I've tried as well and have never managed it. Apparently native Americans do it all the time.

I have tried without success.

yes and they tell me to get laid. Every time I have had one there has been a babe in it and I started touching her because I knew it wasnt real.

I used to have them almost every night. I would be dreaming then all of a sudden Id realize it was a dream and start doing a bunch of crazy stuff. But I hated them because for some reason they'd turn into nightmares, and Id feel something trying to pull me somewhere, and Id try to wake up and Id have this weird buzzing sound in my head. Even worse some times id think Id woken up and see my room and everything, but Id notice something out of place and realize I was dreaming. Then something would grab me and try to drag me somewhere and Id hear that buzzing sound as I tried to wake myself up.

I wish I could. My friend did it once. She was like, I want a porch here! *porch appears*. Now I want that car to blow up! *car blows up*

Right after I got my hair cut realllly short, I was dreaming about looking in a mirror, and was playing with my long curly hair. Then I stopped like, wait, I got my hair cut.... Oh! I must be dreaming! I realized in my dream that I was dreaming... That's the only time, though.

no! God I wish i could. Or do an astral projection and visit far off places. that would be so awesome.

I've had one, but I wasn't aware enough to do anything cool. I've been trying ever since to have one again.

Yes :) It's a good thing sometimes because I know I'm dreaming. Also my dreams get quite weird and I don't like it when I can't control my dream as it gets scary to be honest.

As a kid those dreams are very fun and I have had a couple since. Freedom it is, but we do not feel freedom anymore. Instead we do the shit we would do in our real life.
I usually have no control over my lucid dreams except for when I want to wake up, because then I just go die. Else for me I just walk around like normal.

I have them alot but I never tried to have one intentionally. Almost every time I dream, I get this weird feeling and then I just start noticing that I'm dreaming

Had that a few times! It's awesome, though the friends in my dreams are retards and won't realize that it's a dream >:(

It's fun how you can control it

I have flying dreams, but when they become lucid, I fall.

They don't happen often for me but its fun when they do. I've not tried to induce one yet though.
Usually I realise that I'm dreaming and sometimes when its a nightmare I can force myself to wake up by shouting in my head.

I'm not mental or anything...

I would have Lucid Dreams like 5-7 times a month.. usually I just try to fly out but sometimes something negative happens when I go out too far..for an example, this one time an evil version of Ronald Mcdonald tried to kill me in mid-flight.. funny, random, but scary..

Dude I used to realize I was dreaming in the middle of my dreams and then I'd always run outside or whatever and fucking FLY AWAY. Lucid dreams are so sick.

Omg i sooooooooo wish i can have more lucid dreams lol

live in a mansion with a beach view,or go to the end of the world and jump down the highest cliffs or just relax ...i think it's very therapeutic :)

It's not hard for me. I'm weird that way.

yea I think its a dream where you have control

I did it a couple of times, but it's so freakin' difficult!

I did it by looking at my watch to see what time it was. When you're in a dream, you can't focus enough to tell what time it is, or the time will change. Then you start to realize you're dreaming, so that's when you start to turn around in circles (in your dream) and that calms you enough to prevent you from waking up. It really worked for me. It was awesome, but it didn't last very long.

When people say that they do it all of the time, I have a difficult time believing them, I think they are exaggerating.

Haha its all i do, i wish i got more sleep so i could do it more

in my dream i was looking for a way to wake up

I didn't know what a lucid dream was. and yes I have, quite fascinating really. xx

I always know when I'm in a dream automatically. I also have sleep paralysis, which is probably the scariest thing on Earth until you get used to the feeling. I have also had a very scary obe. So far I am working to make them less scary, but obes take a lot of concentration.

When I am dreaming I can sort of make decisions and am aware I am dreaming sort of... It's weird. Also sometimes while I'm asleep I'll ask myself "shall I wake up, or stay asleep? " and if I decide to wake up I feel myself like being dragged out of my dream.

I have never had one unfortunately :( does anyone know how to make yourself have one? haha. Sometimes I will be dreaming and think oh, wow this would never happen in real life but I can't control what happens.

i found this dream hard to control like(i played that time an shooting game and i threw a grenades all the time, every-time i threw it i herd KABAM and that what i did in my dream thought i didn't herd anything, i realized im in dream)second i try to fly i see nothing and i wake up

Yeah, a lot of times when I was younger, but not anymore. :(

no. but i get wet dreams all the time

I have dreams in which i think im awake. They are usually disturbing and/or horrid. It takes me like 5-7 times to really wake from them. They make me want to die.

I used to have them ALL the time as a kid but now, never. I hate that I dont have them anymore, they are such a great escape from reality.

i had one when i fell aslepp but could feel everything and i new it was a dream heres the freaky bit i woke up sitting on the sofa with my parents looked on my body there where cuts but they didnt even see me move i dreamt about my teacher killing me and i get the scars in real life and dd not move whats up with that did they cut myself from the inside its wierd huh

i do it in class but matain half counciuones so every one thinks im on drugs because my eyes blink like a million times a sec its anoying its like meditation youre so relaxed it happens but my brain is always relaxed but my body isnt i did it while riding a bike fell into the dream and fliped the bike

Ever since i've played Dead Space for the Xbox360 I can't stop dreaming of the Necromorphs. I actually turned violent in my sleep some times.

I use to get them all the time when I was a kid. Now I'm lucky to have a couple a year. But I'm working on it. I also could do astral projection but I forgot how.

if a lucid dream is when you know its a dream but it feels liflelike but you still know its a dream then iv had it a few times

yes,all the time. i actually had to train on that for a year and half to take a full control on my dream.
