I’m fairly new at the whole LD scene, I learned about it in October and since then I have been somewhat successful. 9 ld’s in about 2 months. The thing I have been noticing about these dreams is that I have problems controlling the dream completely. For example, one of my more recent lds spawned off of a ND where I woke up in bed and did an RC. After I became lucid, I got out of bed and was going to go downstairs, but I stopped when I realized I was in my boxers. So I said to myself “I think I’m going to need some cloths.” So I tried to do the pill thing, but it failed because I didn’t have any pants on. After the pill thing failed I tried spinning around and telling myself that I would have my cloths on when I stopped.
After I stopped spinning, I noticed that I only had my shirt on. This is quite frustrating because issues like this happen in most of my LDs. Another example is when I was running at a wall full speed to try and run through it and ended up running into it and smashing my face on the wall, after which I woke up.
So I was wondering, how can I improve my control in my dreams? They are usually quite vivid and I have no problem realizing what is going on within the dream. It just seems to be a control issue.
