Thread: Stupidest Ways You've Missed Becoming Lucid

I was explaining to my girl friend how to lucid dream, and went on dream views with her, someone's sig was "Do a RC", then instead of doing one I told her, "Ok, now plug your nose and try to breath", she did it and she said "I'm dreaming!" I was jealous that she was having a lucid dream and I wasn't

That's pretty funny actually especially the last part

For me, it was working at my current job outside in the dark. Best part was that there were no walls to this place and I never noticed that

My homeroom teacher told me French class was being replaced with "animal rape avoidance". I guess that's always a useful skill.

I laughed and slapped myself when I woke up

haha thats funny, I had a similar experience once. I was on a field trip with my math class, and we were learning how to defend ourselves from wild birds that live in caves, apparently the best way is to bite their neck and throw a coconut at their head (well, according to my dream anyways)

I dreampt that I was running away from this guy in a castle. All of a sudden, I decided to do an RC and hold my nose while breathing. It worked, and I was lucid. Unfortunately, it didn't last long and the dream started to fuzz out and transition to black. Being my first lucid dream, I told myself to stay calm, otherwise I would get to excited and wake up. The next second I was in my bedroom. My dad barges in the door and begins telling me how I was thrashing around and yelling things in my sleep. He goes as far as describing the color of the castle and my attacker, claiming I said all this in my sleep. I felt very dissapointed that I woke up exactly when I had a lucid dream!

The phone rings and my sister calls. She tells me how she can't sleep due to nightmares, and I tell her that she should try Lucid Dreaming. I go as far as telling her to do RC's, but before I explain that she should do some constantly, she screames "HOT DOGS!" The next second I was at a hot dog eating competition, eating to my stomachs content.

Then I woke up... Oh how I hate false awakenings! Sometimes I feel like the subconcious is one tricky SOB.

Actually the first time I've lost lucidity in a dream happened to be for the most ridiculous reason. A dream character brought over a box of doughnuts.
"Ooh Doughnuts!" *lose lucidity while eating*

Man, I felt stupid when I woke up.

I was told that my room was going to be repainted orange (it's currently a subtle green) "to improve my IQ".

I remember one time i was dreamin where i was asleep on my computer desk and my mom woke me up at 4:30 in the morning to close out of a tab on my internet (well, stuff like that's normal so nothing weird here.)

Then I went downstairs and she started yelling at me. The whole family woke up and my brother and dad were yelling too. Apparently I had stolen the sugar container (on the kitchen table to pour sugar on our plain cereals) from her dresser as a "lucid aid." It was morally wrong to them and then they showed me a video of myself becoming a demon and going insane through a lucid dreaming ritual.

No mom, I didn't use your sugar as a lucid aid!

I have just found my newest dream goal, thanks mate!

Hahah umm well I'm still fairly new to LDing and stuff, but a recent dream I had, which frustrated the HELL out of me, involved this girl I really like telling me I was dreaming and that she'd hook up with me if I realised it and became lucid. Naively, I thought "Nah, she'd hook up with me anyway..", and I didn't even try to become lucid or give it any thought. We didn't hook up. Now I hate myself haha..

mine was last night, i was dreaming, but was trying to do the wake initiated lucid dream and was trying to picture where i wanted to be in my dream when i started dreaming, i was also speaking to people telling them where i wanted to start my lucid dream, without knowing i already was dreaming.

These come all the time. Yesterday even: I was looking in the mirror and shaving my giant grey and white beard! I even remember saying "When the hell did I start ageing?" and I proceeded to shave.

i once tried to hook up with a girl i worked with and when she said no i said "come on, it's just a dream." she said "that's the oldest trick in the book." i said "ok if it's not a dream then give me this tomorrow." and handed a piece of paper to it with the words "let me hit it" written on it. i felt like i had totally showed her what was what and then woke up. i saw her the next day at work and had forgotten the dream until that moment. i looked at her weird and said "do you have something for me?" obviously she didn't and when i told her about it she thought it was hilarious.

thank you! now i feel normal! all my dreams are freaking crazy lol! i only count the ones where i wavered on lucidity.

Exactly I have had dreams that make you go WTF? Like I had a dream where I was getting a drill bit through my head and I was like ow this hurts... my mind completely puts aside that I have a hole in my head and that I should probably die right now.....to think about dream pain.

oh and one last thing, once i dreamed that a bunch of people were at my house having a party, i was so furious that i stormed into my bathroom and grabbed a shot glass and was going to take a shot of the toilet water. then instead of saying "what the what? i'm dreaming!" i said "ooh wait, someone nasty may have used this toilet, with the party going on and all..."

haha dream pain is odd. Last night I was a dragon and was once a legend. I had rebirthed and was learning to fly again so I was out in a cold russia square. Statue of a general with a gun above his head, I stood on the base. I jumped and flapped my arms and kept trying to fly and failed. But one time, on the way down, I hit my left nipple on the corner of the base. Instantly my nipples grew three inch long hair that stuck straight out like a boner and I got perky. It stung, too.

lololol

(disclaimer - I was lucid though..)

LMFAO. Sooo great.

telling my friend in detail about another dream i had at the place we were. Then not reality checking

Last night was crazy I remembered like 3 or 4 dreams. One of them or at least part of one, I was in a time machine or was going to use one to go to the future. The funny thing is what I was going to do in the future. I was there to have a lucid dream I guess I expected It to be different in the future. I don’t know but it piss me off I didn’t go lucid.

A few night ago I got lost in a marsh or swamp. Then I saw a huge ship or small mountain rising from the reeds. I remember thinking "that looks strange".

But that was it

Yesterday, I had a dream in witch I was getting a medicine (I had a headache i guess... ). And when I opened the the medicine can, I saw one pill and a string. Then I said to my self:"This is strange... Oh well guess it should jump out, but it didn't..."

Seeing myself in a mirror. I looked different everytime I glanced at it. I felt so dumb when I woke up, because looking at a mirror was another viable RC. But then again, that happened during a very vivid nightmare.

I always seem to be super emotional in my dreams (not sure why). I always cry for no reason and things just go wrong. So this rapist was stalking me but I kept it secret from my parents. Later after seeing him at walmart I cry to them in the car. They tell me that everything will be okay. I say that it won't but they say that I'm dreaming and can't get hurt. I tell them I know but am still afraid.

It goes on for a lot longer but I could have turned lucid and kicked that rapist dudes butt. Stupid me thinking I'm sooooo smart and know I'm dreaming not needing any type of real awareness.
