      Lucid dreams are tiring !

      Hey everybody, how's it going? I'm new here but I've had 2 lucid dreams before (one where I got so excited I woke up and the other was a full length vivid lucid dream). My problem is after I was lucid dreaming for quite sometime I started getting sooo tired. Like really exhausted to where even in my dream I was fighting off sleep like you were in a board meeting for several hours after a big lunch.

      I felt fine after waking up but does this scenario ever happen to anybody? Do you get the deep sleep you need while being aware enough to lucid dream? Any way to avoid it? I wonder if I can just take a nap in my lucid dream and feel refreshed enough to keep going? I wonder if I did take a nap if I could lucid dream in my napped lucid dream... No seriously though, anybody got any input?

      That happens now and then. I say don't fight it, if you need to take a nap while lucid, go for it. I've done it before. The dream within a dream stuff can be interesting.

      I was actually joking about that but that's interesting haha. I'll give it a shot when it happens again. Appreciate the quick response.

      you feel tired because when you lucid dream your using conscious energy. which means that your mind isnt actually sleeping. so when you lucid dream, you lose sleep. make any sense...?

      Yeah I completely understand.. That's kind of what I was eluding at with my first post if Lucid dreaming does take away from the regeneration your body is accomplishing as you sleep. Although Lucid Dreaming has been an experience so far that are indescribable in words it's still counter productive in that aspect I'm guessing?

      That's kinda sad to learn if that's the case !
