Thread: New, with a question about a DC

Well his first part of the post is saying it's not enough to just become lucid and only DO things in your dreams and then remembering them. Your normal waking-life judging system must be implemented into your actions as well. And to your first post, you do seem like someone who would typically be called crazy and be asked to take medication but it really isn't your fault. Just know that almost everyone has a different perspective about life and everyday normal things than you do aand that when you start talking about some guy you see in waking life who isn't real, it can be quite queer to our eyes. Basically what I am saying is this isn't a forum where people can empathize with your experiences about Jack. That isn't to say you aren't welcome though, it sounds like you have a lot of interesting things to say. And to philosopher....I think what you are trying to say in the second half of your post would be lost by many people. Would you mind explaining it better?

One thing though that I am curious about, as I have had some experience with it. Can her mind become more functional by what she learns by lucid dreaming? That has been a question I have longed to know for years. First she would have to realize something is wrong, and secondly have a deep desire to fix it.

oh I don't actually see him lol! now that would be crazy. what I meant by that is seeing him in daydreams and in my mind's eye. and when I say that he's a "voice in my head while I'm awake" I don't mean that I actually hear him. it's more like the voice in my head that I hear when I read, narrating the story as I read it. Now I understand why my original post must be so confusing!

Also, I sure hope Jack is a visualization of my subconscious! Or else I might have to put a little more stock in what the shrinks said.

Nice dodge. I hide too, but I hide because I am on the other side of the bell curve.

Philosopher. Probably not. If anything, lucid dreaming is purely imaginative and wouldn't be helpful at all. After reading the post she posted right after yours, it seems like she just grew up with a very peculiar perspective of her own conscious. Amber, that 'voice' is just your conscious trying to make sense of itself. If you aren't seeing anything, I really feel your whole life your conscious has been perceived as another person by you. It might take a while to fully realize but this 'Jack' person is you and it is what everyone has intuitively.

Oh and Jack being in your dreams....your mind just made this person up because it is only natural for you that he is there. Basically, he is just like any other person you would find in a dream but since he is important to you, your mind will continue to build on his personality and such. Just know that in your dreams, he is just a normal dream character and in waking-life, it is your conscious. There is no other person involved in any of this. It is just you
