      Are lucid dreams a waste of time..I think they are.

      I have had close to 100 lucid dreams within 2 weeks and I think it's a complete waste of time. My lucid dreams are full of BS and I don't know what to do about it PLEASE HELP!

      Go outside. Get sunlight and fresh air. Make friends and talk about stuff. I'm not talking about your lucid dreams either.

      Lucid Dreaming can be a enlightening experience or the exact opposite. I find reading and educating your self while awake can greatly enhance your lucids. namaste.


      "when you fall unconscious, what your mind expresses is a dream.
      When you are aware, what your mind expresses is creativity. It creates your life.
      When you are in a higher state of consciousness, it not only creates the life of whatever you want, but also on whom ever you want". -LifeBlissFoundation

      So why is lucid dreaming a waste of time? Hey man, when you sleep, you "loose" time by doing nothing, so why don't use this time to create something or do something spectacular?

      And if you don't like to lucid dream, why don't you stop? There's absolutely nothing to worry about ....

      Trololololololololol

      Ok, assuming you're not a troll, LD's are what you make of them. Some (most) people on the site make them into fun, enjoyable, and meaningful experiences. If you don't care to make them that, then feel free to stop putting in the effort. Nobody is making you lucid dream. I think...
      I don't usually think, therefore I mostly am not.

      Obvious troll is obvious. 100 lucids in 2 weeks. 100 in 14 days. That means you'd need at least 7 or 8 a night. Unless someone has god-like recall and always knows when they're dreaming, this guy's a troll.

      I've managed to get 8 lucids in a single day one time, If only I could do that every day.

      I'm pretty sure this guy is either trolling or doesn't know what a lucid dream is.

      I wonder what got in to this guy. He used to be an avid poster and pretty helpful. Maybe someone got a hold of his account?

      I've been thinking the same thing.
      We all live in a kind of continuous dream. When we wake, it is because something,
      some event, some pinprick even, disturbs the edges of what we have taken as reality.

      This guy isn't a troll. Or at least he wasn't. Idk his problem. 100 lucid dreams in two weeks is impossible.

      I don't think someone got ahold of his account because they are using the same typing pattern and signing at the bottom.

      By typing pattern I mean his use of commas and shit.

      Not saying it's impossible it's someone differentl

      He is just pissed about something, it's a private matter. You can talk to him about it in a week.
