In one of my first lucid dreams, I was hanging out with a bunch of friends and noticed that they were a hodgepodge of people I knew, but who wouldn't know each other. And suddenly I realized, "this is a dream".

I proceeded to walk out onto the balcony and fly away... because flying was absolutely the first thing I wanted to try. Flew around, checked out some different planets, and then subtly slipped back into dreaming, losing control once again.

Lucid dreaming happens to me occasionally and I love it every time. And I always choose to fly lol, I can't help myself

I cannot read in dreams or make numbers work. But the funniest way my mind told me I was dreaming was stairs, outdoor stairway. I was trying to go down the stairs but kept ending up at the top again. So I took them 2 at a time, then 3 at a time, then jumped halfway down, then jumped top to bottom and only THEN realized I was dreaming.

I try not to kink shame. But incestuous necrophilia is pretty hard to not tut.

On another note, I wonder what kind of costume a person with that kink would wear.

It's worth it for lucid dreaming though.

I never woke up tired because of lucid dreaming, but the effort to dream journal was a lot, and I eventually got tired of doing it as it eventually felt more like a chore. Once I stopped doing it the frequency of my lucid dreams dropped dramatically.

100% is for me and my friend who tried it. I know how to lucid dream but I haven't done it in 10 years because it is exhausting. I've never met anybody who actually knows how to lucid dream who hasn't stopped for the same reason. You never hear of anybody doing it constantly.

For those interested, I just summoned something to read in my dreams. Magically operating a newspaper wasn't enough to clue me in but not being able to read it was what made me become lucid. It took about 2 weeks of practice before I was getting more aware in my dreams.

thats what research implies, yes

You could also say that scientists are currently working on general purpose AI, cold fusion, nanobots, space elevator, warp drive, teleportation and the Dyson sphere. Just because something is centuries or millennia away, doesn’t mean we can’t research it today.

I think they're referring to staying conscious and meditating towards sleep to keep lucidity during the transition. It's a technique.

Good point.
