My whole life I have almost exclusively only had lucid dreams. I can control what I do in a dream and can manipulate the world most of the time as well. I've never not known I am dreaming.

This being my benchmark, it didn't really click with me until I was a adult (probably way too long) how truly awful nightmares must be. I remember whenever in a movie or TV show someone would wake up sweating and say "oh, thank god, it was just a dream" and I always thought that was just stupid, bad writing. Like, of course it was a dream, you were dreaming! Now that I know that you weirdos actually think that Freddy Kruger is chasing you, I feel really bad.

I'm sorry none of you all have brains that can differentiate reality from fiction.

I was able to get into a lucid dream once and have never been able to do it again. This annoys me as the one time I did it was amazing fun.

Now I just have a recurring nightmare where I am happy and content in a fulfilling relationship and a fulfilling job with great kids and a happy social life. Then I realize that none of this ever happened and realize it is a dream when I start to wake up. I remember what my life is really like and I struggle to hold onto the dream.

“I don’t want to go back! YOU CAN”T MAKE ME! Please! NOOOOOOOOO!”

Then I wake up and try not to cry.

It's ok, friend, you'll always have us!





I just made it worse, didn't I?

Authentically re-experiencing traumas in dreams is part of how we process them, op. I'm sorry that you will never get to experience that. Instead your childhood trauma of forgetting to wear pants to school will haunt your subconscious forever and break you one day.

I have alcohol, you idiot

I can read in my dreams, take that

That's all well and good, but can you read OUTSIDE of your dreams?

"wow that's genuinely interesting and I'd like to hear more." said no one ever when listening to someone describe their dreams

You're just salty because you're never in anyone's dreams, only their nightmares

OP what do you think of what they said in Multiverse of Madness, that when you lucid dream you're really inhabiting a body in another universe?

I think America Chavez is a loving badass
