    I started having a few of them about a year or two ago--but I was aware that I was dreaming in such a way that I became uncomfortable about the fact that I was physically laying down in the body's natural form of sleep paralysis. So instead of really enjoying the imaginative side of the experience I would quickly try to rouse myself into wakefulness. I think there was one incident of the three in which I forced myself to relax and try to enjoy the dream for a bit longer; but I was too aware of being asleep for it to be comfortable.

    I have had a few lucid dreams, they can be to real at times. I have yet to achieve dream control though (being able to completely shape the dream realm to your will). Anyway I've never had a really interesting lucid dream it always just has to do with real life so it can be pretty underwhelming.

    Awe Man! Thats what they are called. I love those dreams. Normally I Have control when it is a repeat dream.

    For example, One time I was dreaming I was in school. I opened a door to go to class and I got killed by a zombie. The next time I had that dream, I was about to open the door again, my subconscious said, don't open that door, remember the last time you did it, you died, and my dream changed from their.

    I also had....a gay sex dream. I was about to bang this dood, but then my subconscious was all like, DOOD! YOU'RE NOT GAY! Then I did not have gay sex. So that is how I know i'm not gay. Luckily, I didn't have to have a repeat in-order for this to kick in.

    I love those dreams. It is like an alternate version of my dreams, pretty cool

    you could have told your subconscious to gab a shotgun then open door and blow the zombie away, revenge.

    I barely dream, and when I do it's really difficult for me to remember what it was all about. I have never been in control of my dreams. How do you do that?

    you DO dream even if you think you dont, the second you wake up you have about 5 minutes to focus on the dream you just had so you can remember it, if you dont, poof gone forever

    Actually, I had one of these for the first time about a month ago! It was such an awesome feeling, but once I realized it only seconds went by until I felt myself fade out.

    I decided to read up on it now that I knew what one felt like. Apparently falling back in the dream, or spinning around with your eyes closed would have kept me lucid. I decided try and learn how to lucid dream. It's tough, I'm too busy in life to fully dedicate time. One weird tip that's actually helping is eating a banana before bed. Apparently it has a certain nutrient or vitamin but it is working, it's increasing the vividness of my dreams which helps the potential for lucidity. I would've never thought eating a banana would help me have vivid dreams that I actually remember when I wake up.

    It's kinda hard to explain why I sleep with a banana every night though roflmao~

    Trust me, vivid dreams are all crazy; Usually because of some stupid game death happens and you wake up feeling scared. Or you're feeling too real in a great dream (Personally I was in a dream harem, no no details) then you wake up right before the best part.
    Vivid = Awesome

    I don't ever really remember any of my dreams but when I do seem to actually notice I'm dreaming they are all like this. usually just like a work day or hanging out with friends. usually pretty boring
