Is it normal to be able to have absolute control over my dream?

When I go to sleep I know what I want to dream about and then I dream about it and I know I'm in the dreams always and control what I do and what everyone else does

    I can sometimes do this if I wake up during the dream and then go back to sleep finishing said dream the way I want. Dreams were originally discovered in REM (deep sleep usually around 90 minutes after falling asleep) but researchers have since found out that some form of cognitive activity occurs throughout sleep, meaning dreams come within several minutes of sleep, which I completely agree with. For most people, recall from stage REM is better, but it is not unusual for some people to have no dream recall at all and for others to recall cognitions from other stages of sleep. You can probably control your dreams because you dream in very early stages where you're still somewhat aware and therefore even in deep REM you can dream what you want. That's my take on it anyway. I love dream research but I'm not an expert. It's cool for you though :)

  • It is called Lucid dreaming and as far as I am aware, its normal.

  • I've heard about this in the Nightmare on Elm Street movie.
