This is too funny!!

Anyways, I know it's common for people to experience difficulty when running or punching in a dream, but do any of you experience this awkward balance at times when simply trying to walk in a dream?

Honestly, I think having "being off balance" as a dream sign would be great! It's readily identifiable and it doesn't occur "often" in your real life!

I personally have never experienced having awkward balance in an LD.. but now that I said this.. I'll probably end up crawling around in my next lucid! :p

There was one time I can remember in particular when I was lucid that everything just suddenly became all distorted and it was almost as if I was drunk. The walls were shifting and I couldn't really focus. It eventually ended, but I really have no idea what caused it.

It would be a great dream sign to have because it would be fairly obvious. Just remind yourself before you go to bed that if you find yourself stumbling around, stop what you're doing and check to see if you're dreaming. Also, it would be a good idea to come up with a plan for when you become lucid.

My first lucid dream was very similar! It felt like the first time I had ever used legs! I kept stumbling from one side of the room to the other, evntually finding balance after about 3 minutes!
