      RC Gave Me a Nosebleed!

      I did the nose pinch reality check, and I got a nosebleed! Got any other reliable RCs I can use?

      It took WAY TOO LONG - but was completely worth it.

      Ahh dude how hard did you pinch your nose? The above one is good, checking a clock, reading text, just observing your surroundings for anything out of the ordinary... the list goes on and on. You can create your own unique ones as well.

      I didn't pinch my nose that hard, I guess it was just dry or something. Weird thing is, I don't get a lot of nosebleeds.

      If I did the nose RC and got a nosebleed, I would probably decide I must be dreaming.

      Good thing he didn't try to run through a wall. That wouldn't be very good for an already bleeding face.

      Well, if it makes anyone feel better, I did the finger count as the blood dripped all over the bathroom sink. *Sighs* But now LDing has mocked me, and I will conquer it! Tonight! Hopefully...

      Hey, that happened to me too. But, oh well, I don't care. It's become a very reliable reality check for me. It only happened once out of nine months of doing it. So I guess I can deal with it.

      Hasn't done it again. But it was dry where I live because of a heck of a drought. That could have affected it.

      I usually just use the nose pinch and text change RCs. I'm sure there are others that you can use that will work better for you. I suggest you read the Wikibook on Lucid Dreaming, as it discusses numerous RCs with a chart grading it on quickness, discreetness, and other criteria.
      While sleeping, watch.

      Memory Reality Check! It's good because you don't look like a dumbass and always works. Poor quality dreams will cause reality checks to not work correctly sometimes (I've never been able to put my hand through my palm unless I was already lucid.) Think back the last hour or so, if you can't remember how you got some place then you are dreaming.

      I've always been curious if that old "pinch me I think I'm dreaming" thing was for real. Guess not
