Sometimes, I have a lucid dream. But the thing is, whenever that happens, I've realized I can only control just one tiny aspect or detail of that dream... I've actually studied myself for, like a month about this a long time ago...
It's kinda like this. Say, I have a dream where I'm walking down a street, and then people jump out of buildings, but they dont fall, they fly. But if I see someone I don't like (for example, last year's English teacher), I can just make her fall to her death. But anyone else can keep flying, and I can't seem to control it.
It's kinda weird, but now that I think about it, it's kinda fun.

That's extremely common. When one realizes they are dreaming, or that something in the dream can't be real, it triggers the dreamer's conscious state, since the person is linking something with his conscious reality.

I've had a couple of lucid dreams, those things friggin' rule.
I once dreamed that I went through a whole day, and went to sleep; when I woke up I thought it was tomorrow... looking back at that, it sounds kinda incoherent. *shrugs*

anyone notice how it can jump from location to location and situation to situation with out it seeming weird? and i agree with Joe, time isn't a factor for me. I can wake myself up which is a useful tool for bad dreams.
Lately i've been having really really real feeling dreams, to the point where i will wonder whether it happened or i dreamed it

i thought this was pretty normal. i used to be able to control a lot of deams.. now i dont have dreams anymore, or at least not ones that i can remember. i think it's the lack of sleep.
anyway.... i used to pretty much always know i was dreaming and could control them all the time at least to some extent. My imagination/fear would control a lot of it, and make things happen that i didnt want to, and i'd have to fight back.. it was really fun. i miss them.

I don't have lucid dreams, I just have dreams I absolutely believe are real.
Last night I dreamt I'd lost the lower half of my right leg.
Waking up was very, very nice.

I dreamt that there was going to be a beastie boys concert and since my uncle had "connections" we were all gonna meet them. Which is weird since my uncle works for the post office.
Anyway, I woke up thinking "Dude! When's the concert?!"

if you want to induce lucid dreaming that you can try to control, i've heard that the best way to do it is wake yourself up earlier in the morning than you would usually wake up, sit around awake for about 45 mins, and go back to sleep. apparently you're body hasn't woken up enough to get out of the lucid dreaming phase of the sleep cycle but will still be in shallow (or whatever the technical name is) sleep so that you'll actually remember your dream entirely and can even control it if you "practice."
