Thread: Please Someone Help Me

Guess ill start by introducing myself, my name is Frankie I'm 21 and I'm from Miami. I've always had an interest in anything metaphysical and spirituality.

Now to the good stuff..

Guys I need your help. I knew lucid dreaming existed and was very possible. After watching a good amount of my favorite movies (Stay, Waking Life, etc.) I decided to try for myself. I've read a lot and been trying for the past week. Well finally tonight is happened. Guys and to be honest with you I'm a grown ass man and right now I got all the lights on, I'm afraid of going back to sleep.

Firstly this wasn't like it happened once it happened several times, and I awoke after each dream. To go back into the 'lucid dream' state didn't take an hour of concentration it took seconds and no concentration. I felt like I was just falling into it almost. That's why I'm so scared now, I had such bad things happen, Ill recant the three worst ones...

1st Dream
I'm driving along a very congested part of Miami and I see the left lane starts to back up so I switch over to the right. I'm going possibly 80mph. Then I notice that in this lane the same situation is happening so I jump over one more time to the right, the final lane. Once again I can see that this lane is also backed up so I think "screw it gotta deal with traffic I guess". At which point I attempt to hit the brakes only thing the brakes don't work. I'm maybe 30 ft from the car in front and I don't want to kill them so I jump into the side of the road which is leading me straight in to a bunch of palm trees. I say to myself out loud "I'm dead" close my eyes and wait for the bang but it never comes. I open my eyes and I'm going through the trees without injury but I look in front and I can see more trees and I freak out and wake up.

2nd Dream
This time I'm aware and in control. Good right? Wrong. I'm going along what seems to be like a "It's a Small World" ride at Disney and I'm cracking up at all the puppets and pictures. When I notice one pink elephant looking at mean as hell and I point him out and I'm like "what's your problem" At which point the ride I'm in crashes into like a wooden horse toy thing and I crack it in half. I look around and I'm in my baby brothers room. And he's pisst, 'you broke my horse', I was like 'I'm sorry'. So he jumps back into his bed to go to sleep and I lay down next to him but he's like 'no room hit the floor'. I do but when I'm laying down he looks over at me and says 'no Frankie, don't go to sleep'. At this point I was still aware but I didn't have control. I ignored him and did so... Next thing I know I'm on the floor still but now I can't control myself. I can get up, I can't wake up. I'm screaming but only moans are coming out. I can only compare it to like a night terror that your mind wakes up but not your body. My dad comes into the room and picks me up and says 'drugs huh' I'm trying to explain no but nothing comes out. I awoke screaming.

Interesting thing here. I use to have work at night and would sleep in the day. For some reason I would have crazy dreams during the day, and I would awake into what I can only describe as my body is physically awake but I'm still dreaming. I've walked out of my room into the kitchen following my dream.

3rd Dream
I fell into in seconds after having a dream where my best friends were telling people have stayed stuck doing what I was doing. When I fell into it again I felt like "vrooooVooooVOOOOMMMMMM" sound coming my way I just woke up in terror and my exact words were "F*** THIS!".

I'm scared guys, what do I do? I don't want to go to sleep to have something as intense like that happen again. Did I unlock something I can't go back on? How do I control it, like complete control? Did I do something wrong in the process of getting into it? I've done plenty LSD and Shrooms in my life in search of spiritual journeys, does that have anything to do with it? Please I'll appreciate any help given. Thank you for your time and advice.
