Weird lucid dreams

[Francesca22]

I have did not try to become a lucid dreamer I just am one, someone actually told me I was when describing a dream. Anyways, I have insomnia but when I sleep it is usually a lucid dream. I enjoy it but sometimes my dreams get really scary and I have to force myself to wake up, which sucks when you finally sleep with intractable insomnia. In my dreams I can only control my actions. I am aware that I am dreaming but I can't figure out how to control other people. I occasionally get dreams where I am attacked my someone and if I get shoved up against a wall or something I can feel them doing so which freaks me out and makes me want to wake myself up. Is there anyway to get control of other people? I also get dreams where I dream that I'm not sleeping and I drink water and eat and I can taste the food and I feel like I am awake, which makes it difficult for me to tell if I'm sleeping or awake. And the other night I was dreaming I was checking the clock because I had to wake up and each time I did so the time would be completely different and when I'd try to wake myself up I'd get sleep paralysis and I'd hear my mom yelling at me to get up several times that night which I think was due to hallucinations from the paralysis. When I woke up though I was thoroughly confused for a few hours because I couldn't tell if I was still dreaming since my dreams feel so real. My dreams are so real that it's almost like I'm in a different world, which is fascinating but can be scary at the same time. Does anyone else experience these types of dreams?

No one has heard of this? I've been looking up fruits that fit the description in my dream and the Passionfruit does but I don't know where I could get some to taste it. It also says to help with sleep issues. Is it possible that I am experiencing things through dreams or am having some type of premonitions to show me what to do for myself? Last night I had a dream that my friend texted me saying she was watching this show I like and thought it was really funny. I record the series and when I woke up that episode (i saw it before she texted me about it) recorded the night before and was in my dvr. Does that mean anthing?

I think you should just try to empower yourself in lucids. Try doing different superpowers like summoning fire etc. if something does not work, try somehing else. Discover your talents

I enjoy it but sometimes my dreams get really scary and I have to force myself to wake up You will have to learn to stop forcing yourself to wake up. It is not your only option, but if you always wake yourself up, whenever you are in an intense situation, you will never get better at dream control. Your level control is based on things like expectation and anxiety. You will have to learn to control your fear, if you are going to learn ways to manipulate the dream and push back your nightmare creatures. In my dreams I can only control my actions. I am aware that I am dreaming but I can't figure out how to control other people. I occasionally get dreams where I am attacked my someone and if I get shoved up against a wall or something I can feel them doing so which freaks me out and makes me want to wake myself up. Is there anyway to get control of other people? What you'll have to do first is learn to accept and understand the 'it's only a dream' ideology. When something starts to freak you out, and you're lucid, fight back. If you're scared of someone shoving you against a wall, just imagine how hard it's going to be do defeat the ghosts and goblins of your worst nightmares. The next time, someone pushes you against a wall or something, you tell them "This is MY dream! Get the hell BACK!!!" and then push them away with your mind. You don't even have to use your 'hands.' It is your mind, and you have the power to push those enemies off of you without lifting a finger. You have to know that, to be able to take advantage of it. Jumping out of the dream is a way of saying that you're the victim, and you have to escape. Thinking that way is ultimately going to keep you away from being confident enough to take control of your dreams in the first place. I also get dreams where I dream that I'm not sleeping and I drink water and eat and I can taste the food and I feel like I am awake, which makes it difficult for me to tell if I'm sleeping or awake. Many, many dreams are like this. You will have to start looking for more absurd dream signs. The more familiar you get with the dream state, the more you'll begin to realize that the sensory feeling can be exactly like waking life, so you can't used to using that as a way to tell whether you're dreaming or not. And the other night I was dreaming I was checking the clock because I had to wake up and each time I did so the time would be completely different and when I'd try to wake myself up... Next time, don't try to wake yourself up. My dreams are so real that it's almost like I'm in a different world, which is fascinating but can be scary at the same time. Does anyone else experience these types of dreams? Yes. Hope this all helps, and Welcome to Dream Views!

You need to face your fears. Demand your attackers identify themselves. Ask them what they represent. When you are attacked use that as a sign you are dreaming, and then confront your attacker(s). In some cases you will have to fight them, so defeat them and then demand a gift. Fight only as a last resort, as your subconscious is trying to tell you something. You could be dealing with symbols here, or a personal experience buried in your memory. You have to face it, whatever it may be. The SP, your mom yelling, different worlds may also be an OBE, or Out of Body experience. Authors to read on this subject include Robert Monroe, Albert Taylor, Dianne Morrissey and William Buhlman.
